Happy Easter 2014
The Ireton Informer
Grand Knight’s Message
Prayer List
Brothers and Sisters, I would like to start off by wishing
everyone a Happy and Blessed Easter. Many thanks to all who helped
out and attended our March activities. A special thank you to Jerri
Pat MacPherson and the Ladies Auxiliary for throwing a wonderful
St. Patrick’s Day dinner and dance. Also, a special thanks to PGK
Tom Hoof for once again chairing the Public Awards Dinner. This is
an important event it takes a lot of work on Tom’s part to pull it
off. The month of April is going to be just as busy for us. We
started a Lenten Food Drive on March 9th and hope to collect 1000
lbs. of food before the end of Lent. Please bring your
non-perishable items to the BIC. The council meeting on April 13th
is a good time to bring your donation or you can drop off your
donation on Wednesday nights during Bingo. The collection area is
currently in the council chambers. If you cannot make it out to the
BIC and you would like to contribute please give me a call
804-231-0005 and I will gladly come out to your home and pick up
your donation. Other happenings in April include the Spring Prom.
This is special time for our council. Please come out to help serve
food or work
in the kitchen, we always have a great time working this event.
Please contact Brother Jerry Duncan for more information or to
volunteer. Also in the beginning of May we have KOVAR. Contact PGK
Jim Cooke or your KOVAR team captain from last year for more
information. You can also keep an eye on Buddy’s email notices for
more information as the date draws nearer. Our nominating
committee, chaired by PGK Greg Toler, is hard at work preparing a
slate of officers for our May elections. If you have any interest
in serving as an officer please see PGK Toler as soon as possible.
Please note that our regularly scheduled meeting for May 11th has
been moved to May18th for the council elections. Let’s talk about
membership and we have good news to share. The good news is we have
two new members of our council. Please welcome Brother Erik Hammond
and Brother Joey Kuzma to our family. The other good news is that
we have still have 3 more months in this fraternal year and plenty
of time to recruit and bring in some more new members. Brothers and
Sisters, I would like to take this opportunity to once again
encourage you to help us recruit our Catholic friends and
acquaintances to join our order. In closing, I would like to wish
you all a blessed and Happy Easter
Vivat Jesu,
GK Jack Simila

Knight and Family of the Month
The April Knight of the Month I am proud to announce PGK Tom
Hoof as our April 2014 Knight of the Month. Tom is an active member
of our council and Chairman of our Charity Committee. Charity
Committee can sometimes be a thankless job but Tom always rises to
the occasion and month after month Tom and the charity committee do
a great job. Tom’s efforts are evident all fraternal year, but they
were particularly demonstrated this past March as Tom, once again
pulled off one of our biggest events of the year, the Annual Public
Service Awards Dinner. Tom is also an active member of the Board of
Directors for the Bishop Ireton Center. I am proud to announce PGK
Tom Hoof as the Bishop Ireton Council 6189 Knight of the Month for
April 2014 (GK Jack Simila) The April Family of the Month It is
with great pleasure that I announce the family of George and Beppie
Zuban as our April 2014 Family of the Month. George and Beppie are
always ready when help is needed. Whenever we have an event they
can be found in the kitchen preparing our meal. George is an active
participant in our council meetings and is also an active member of
the Bishop Ireton Board of Directors. George and Beppie are also
very active members of St. Augustine Catholic Church. I am proud to
announce George and Beppie as our April 2014 Family of the Month.
Thank you George and Beppie for everything you do to support our
council... (GK Jack Simila)
State of BIC…
Our meeting was called to order at 7:00 on Tuesday March 4th.
With all the snow this winter we have only had snow removal two
times. Each removal cost $250.00. Gene Zimmerman, our Building
Manager had a Health Inspection on Tuesday, Feb. 25th. The
following items were cited: 1- cracks in the ice machine bin cover
2- 0-ring nut leaking on three compartment sink. Thanks to Brother
Doug MacPherson for correcting this. 3- Butcher block table has to
be resurfaced or replaced. We must maintain a clean kitchen and
building at all times. These inspections are not taken lightly.
A meeting was held on ways to attract more customers. Among
these are setting up the use of credit cards, painting of the
office and updating the sign out front to include rental of the
building. We were contacted by a company called Sustainable
Technology Institute to give us a free energy audit on our duct
systems. They
test for leaks in our systems. Any repairs to leaks will be made
and Dominion Power will cover the cost. This has been done on
Friday March 7th. Several ducts were not attached and one as large
as 8 inches. We only have to
send them 2 referrals to have no cost. This has been done. I
will not be in town for our next meeting so we have moved the date
to 2nd Tuesday on April 8th at 7:00. Please support both the St.
Patrick's Day Dinner/Dance and the Public Awards Dinner. Yours in
service Jerry Duncan, BIC President Council 6189 Leadership …
We are in need of a person to fill the chair of Recorder.
Brother knight of Council 6189, this fraternal year is fast
approaching its 4th quarter . NOW IS THE TIME TO THINK ABOUT HOW A
BROTHER KNIGHT CAN SERVE HIS COUNCIL for 2014-15 fiscal year. It
will be helpful if the current officers make their intentions known
as soon as possible so the nominating committee will know what
vacancies will need filling. There are a number of brothers that
are capable of serving and at this point what position they would
like to serve in. Keep in mind that going through the chairs will
give you the experience to be a great GRAND KNIGHT OF OUR COUNCIL
6189. I am a past grand knight and am willing to help you in making
your decisions. I am sure the other PGKs feel the same as I do.
Help is not that far away from you. My E- mail is
[email protected] and my home phone is 804.233.1651. Please
contact me now. (Gregory Toler PGK 2003-04)
KOVAR
This year our KOVAR will tentatively take place in May and we
are looking at the 16th and 17th of May to do this. Please respond
quickly to a team captain so we can effectively plan our course of
action. It makes planning a little more simple for those task with
managing the program. If you served on a team last year, you know
who your team captain is. Please - just make the call. If you did
not participate last year, please do so this time around. Call PGK
Jim Cooke at 739-6461 or email him at [email protected]. The more
that cooperate early , the better we can plan. Please participate
and help us out! There is much work to be done by Jim and his
captains. You do not have to wait to be asked. Let's get this done
quickly.

Military Retiree News....
The proposed 2015 DOD budget could kill TRICARE Prime and
increase out-of-pocket medical expenses for dependents and
retirees. Much of the first reports on the proposed 2015 defense
budget didn’t necessarily focus on the details or specific areas to
be cut. Many of details won’t be available until March 4th.
However, there are some details available on one of the most
significant benefits areas to be hit – TRICARE. TRICARE, originally
named for its three levels of health care coverage (Prime, Extra,
and Standard), has been providing affordable healthcare coverage
for military dependents and retirees for nearly 20 years. The DOD
is proposing to merge the three options into a single
fee-for-service insurance option, similar to the current Standard
option. Beneficiaries could see lower costs if they use military
treatment facilities or “preferred” care providers who offer
military discounts. However, the plans include charging retirees a
new co-pays for using on-base treatment facilities. New co-pays
also would be set for military families and retirees who use
emergency rooms inappropriately for routine care.. Go here for
more: http://www.health.mil/FY15ProposedBudget ..Stay Tuned…
Bingo Chairman....
We have a new Bingo Chairman - PGK Doug MacPherson has
graciously stepped forward to keep manage the program in the
absence of our Chancellor Jamie Miller. Jaime is being reassigned
by the U.S. Army to Turkey but hopes to return in a year. He has
done an outstanding job since December and he will be missed. We
also pray for his safe journey when he starts his job transition.
We are grateful to PGK Doug MacPherson for his active participation
in our council. He always steps in to fill a void when needed - a
dedicated Knight of Columbus.

A Note from your Insurance Agent
Plan for this tax day and into the future
April 15 (tax day) is right around the corner. It’s become
popular this time of year to encourage the opening of an IRA or
similar retirement annuity, or the depositing of additional funds
into an existing account, as a tax saving vehicle. A secondary
approach is to tout the rate of interest that money in one of these
accounts can earn. I encourage you to open or add funds to an
annuity, but for a different reason. Certainly, contributing money
to a Knights of Columbus annuity will allow you to save some money
on your income tax return. And our annuities do pay a very
competitive interest rate, consistent with our primary goal of
absolute safety of principle. Opening or adding to an annuity for
these, however, strikes me as taking a short term view of a product
that is designed to provide long term security. How much security?
How does retirement income that you cannot outlive-guaranteed
–sound to you? With the Knights of Columbus, you can open a
retirement annuity for as little as $300. Consistent and
disciplined savings placed into that annuity over time can
guarantee you an income at retirement that you cannot outlive. That
guarantee-along with the fact that no one has ever lost money in a
Knights of Columbus annuity (absolute safety of principle) really
will provide you with peace of mind. I am happy to meet with you to
explain in detail the benefits
of opening a Knights of Columbus annuity, along with the
benefits of our top rated life insurance, disability income and
long term care insurance plans. Don Principe, FIC 804-873-873

April Charity Requests…
Seminarian $500
Food For Families Program…… .
In a country like the United States, no one should go hungry.
Though we cannot feed all, there are some families in our
communities that are hungry and need our help. How often do you
contribute to the food pantry at your church? How many times have
you "forgotten" to bring a food item for the basket that is always
in the vestibule when you enter the church? We have all done it at
one time or another. Well, during this Lenten season, we can make
it by bringing those "forgotten" food items to the Bishop Ireton
Center and leave them to be distributed among our churches' food
pantries. Our goal is 1000 pounds. Let's do this as a council. We
can do it. We have a special insert in the
Ireton Informer with more details. (PGK Dave Brennan)
On Abortion...
Abortions are everything we should detest when it comes to
destruction of human life. Read on, please...Planned Parenthood: 1
Adoption Referral per 149 Abortions: Planned Parenthood performed
327,166 abortion procedures in one year and made only 2,197
adoption referrals, according to its latest annual report — about
149 abortions for each referral. The report documents the "patient
care" Planned Parenthood said its "affiliated centers" did from
Oct. 1, 2011 to Sept. 30, 2012. The 2,197 adoption referrals the
organization did in that period were down from 2,300 in the
previous year. The report does not say how many of the referrals to
other agencies actually resulted in an adoption. The report stated:
"We are the most effective advocate in the country for policies
that protect access to legal abortion." It also disclosed that 2.13
million women received birth control information and services from
Planned Parenthood health centers during the one-year period. The
organization's net revenue rose 5 percent to $1.21 billion in its
fiscal year ending on June 30, 2013. About 45 percent of the
revenue, $540.6 million, came from government grants and
reimbursements. Planned Parenthood lobbied heavily in favor of the
Affordable Care Act's mandatory contraception coverage, and its
report called Obamacare - "a historic advance for women's health."
Planned Parenthood kills more babies. Consider the toll and loss of
human lives in the name of abortion. This more than we lose any our
wars against terrorism
Spring Prom News...
