Supporting
individuals diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis.
Venerable
State Deputy,
Venerable Officers of the Order,
Ladies,
A new Columbian Year began July 1st and, with it, the hope that it be
filled with Fraternity, Charity, Unity and Patriotism. I am here tonight
due as I have accepted to be spokesperson for all spouses of the State
Officers, for this year
In the name
of Réjeanne, the wife of our State Deputy, I urge you to support
your husband, your spouse, in all the undertakings of his position.
The Knights of Columbus need him, they also need you.
As in the past years, the spouse of the State Deputy contacts the spouses
of all Grand Knights, District Deputies and Regional Directors to raise
funds for a Charity she has chosen. As Multiple Sclerosis was selected
last year, and that many activities are already planned, in Réjeanne's
name I ask you to keep raising funds for this most worthy cause.
During the last Columbian Year, the sum of $80,122.92 was raised by you; this is the official amount appearing on the books at the State Secretary's office.
Please think about those affected by Multiple Sclerosis; no one would like to be hurt by this disease. Ladies, we count on your ongoing support to make a difference.
Let us unite
with our spouses to give the “Taste of the Knighthood”.
Have a wonderful Columbian Year everyone.
Suzanne
