services during Fr Mark Betti’s time at St. Bernadette’s. He has been in Roanoke Rapids since 2009 and
is Chaplain of Council 3232.
12. Grand Knight’s Report (GK Bill Barry):
Worthy Brothers All,
Thank you all for coming out tonight.
I would like to welcome all the new brothers to the Knights of Columbus and the brothers who have
transferred into our council.
We need to begin preparing for the officers for the next fraternal year. All third degree members can be
considered for an officer’s position and if you have any interest in becoming an officer please see one of
the trustees. The trustees can answer any questions you may have about an officer’s position. Per our
by-laws a Slate of Officers needs to be submitted next month.
The State council is having a membership blitz this month and requesting all councils to get new
brothers into their council. To help you with recruiting new members I have created this flyer which
the membership director will be passing out. As an incentive we will be giving a shirt with council
name and knights of Columbus logo along with a hat to the brother who brings into the council the
most new members by the April council meeting. For second place a shirt and third place a hat.
Later in the new business section, we need to vote on two delegates and two alternates for the State
Convention in May.

16. Financial Secretary’s Report (Bro. Chris Eby for Bro. Michael Zazzeri): We currently have 139
Associate Members, 72 Insurance Members and 6 Inactive Insurance Members for a total of 217
Members. Included in the total are 3 Honorary Members and 14 Honorary Life Members.
For our Fraternal Year to-date we have had a Net gain of 3 Associate Members – our quota is 15 and a
Net gain of 4 Insurance Members with a goal of 5.
17. Report of Auditors and Trustees: Omitted due to Financial Secretary’s absence.
18. Chancellor’s Report of Vocations (Bro. Nick Longo): As we now have 5 new members, it’s
appropriate to talk about the Mentoring program we’re starting. A council can only grow and survive
if we help the new members to grow with the council and continue to add to our numbers. Many of us
learned about things on our own, but think how great things could have been if someone was with you
along the way, explaining things and helping answer any questions you may have had.
19. Report of Service Program Committees (DGK Sonny Butler):
Culture of Life (DGK Sonny Butler for Bro. Joe Lee): We made approximately $3298 from the Baby
Bottle campaign and during our Officers and Directors meeting last week, got the following
breakdown for the distribution of funds:
Diocesan Pro Life $1500
Lifetree $1200
Moravia (formerly RATI) $ 598
Church (DGK Sonny Butler for Bro. Jim Lawson): We are now supporting two seminarians, although
Bro. Sonny Butler has yet to successfully link up with Austin Faur in an attempt to arrange an event
similar to the one we had with Brian Fegley.
Below are links to the profiles for both of the seminarians we are sponsoring:
