Faithful Navigator’s Message

Brothers,

I hope everyone had a good Easter weekend. I just got back from a work trip late Holy Thursday evening so I grateful to be home with my family. Now it’s back to work.

Please note that there is no dinner meeting in April, just a business meeting on the 27th. In last month’s bulletin I mentioned that the meeting was cancelled; this was a typo on my part. Council has a fundraiser dinner on April 20th at Boston Pizza, please try to attend if you can.

Exemplification is soon upon us. We have some good men who are considering their opportunity to join the 4th. Please take the time to encourage them in their decision, and make them feel welcome.

Candidates are welcome to be our guests at the May Communion Breakfast.

Registration for spouses and guests is available on line on the District website: www.kofc5thontdistrict.com.

Vivat,

SK Jeff Smith

Website Changes

After much frustration, I managed to move the website over to the new host. The site is a little slower to load but otherwise it runs well now. I guess it’s sign of old age even for computer guys when you can’t remember how to do things that you regularly did just a few years ago!

If you can not get on the website (http://kofc1431.ca/) for more than a couple of days please email me (rjeffsmith@live.ca).
