April 2018He has called you out of darkness,
into his wonderful light. 1 Peter 2:9
Brother Knights and Sister Columbiettes,
The Lord is risen. Alleluia. I hope you and your families had a HappyEaster.
The Irish-Italian dinner at the Parish Center was a great success.And thank you to all the Knights, Columbiettes, Religious Ed and the young men from the former Squires who helped set up and break down.Thanks to Deacon Sonny who made this come about.
The next Bingo will be April 4th . Check your work times, in the Good Knight News. If you can't make it, please call so that someone can fill in for you.
Before you know it, the election of officers will be on June 11th at the business meeting. Any Knight wishing to run for any position, let LenLaRocca and Dan Lavardera know and they will put you on the ballot.The Candidates have to be read in at the business meeting. And postedinto the Good Knight News. So far we have 2 positions vacant.Chancellor, Warden, and maybe a Trustee. So give it some thought.Flooring nominations can be taken at the meetings.
Please support the Columbiettes at their Flower Sale, May 5th & 6th,after all the Masses.
Remember in your prayers, the poor, the needy, the starving and distressed. All our members and their families. Also the victims of abortion, and our men and women in the service of our country.God bless you all and our country.
Fraternally yours,
Sal DeFilippoGrand Knight

To be a Member you must be a Qualified Member who supports theideals of Columbianism; Charity, Unity, Fraternity, and Patriotism
Membership in the Knights of Columbus is open to practical Catholics with the HolySee. A practical Catholic is one who lives up to the Commandments of God and theprecepts of Church. One of the precepts governing the administration of the Knightsof Columbus is for ALL members to be qualified through the Virtus training program. Participants not adhering to this mandatory precept will be considered asmarginal members of the Knights of Columbus. Rest assured that this mandate isnot taken lightly. The Diocese of Rockville Centre led by Bishop John O. Barres hasprovided Virtus training to more the 15,700 church personnel and volunteers. If youare a practical Catholic who has expressed your desire to be a member of the Knightsof Columbus, you fall into the category of church personnel and volunteer.
For a Council to develop its organizational capabilities and integration of objectives,there must be a “commitment to cause” on each Knights part. Understanding thateach individual is challenged by everyday tasks, it is through your sincere effortsthat success will continue here at Mother Cabrini Council. Rewards for outstandingservice have been noted and the elected officials have decided to reward those whohave excelled in their dedication to our principles of charity, unity, fraternity andpatriotism. Those actively participating in the majority of events will be furnishedwith amenities in direct proportion to all that they do. Those underachieving in supporting by donating their time and effort to the Councils events such as Bingo,Irish/Italian Dinner, Spaghetti Dinner, visiting the Veterans at Stony Brook on thethird week of the month, to name a few, will be considered minimal participants andwill not be considered for the amenities afforded to the active participants.
