Dear Brothers of Council 5959, Family and Friends,
|
Intellectual Disabilities Drive is almost in the books. We collected for two weekends and the DD's per below. The managers are amazing, they treated us to coffee and were very gracious. Please, if you are going out for coffee, stop at one of these two excellent establishments.
|
- Dunkin Donuts of Martinsville 1918 Washington Valley Rd Martinsville, NJ 08836 (732) 560-4050
- Dunkin Donuts of Pluckemin 1109 Route 202/206 Bedminster, NJ 08807 (908) 658-4005
Brothers, family, and friends are all encouraged to donate as well.

Checks should be made out to Knight of Columbus Council 5959 and brought to the next meeting and handed to me to register and present to PGK FS Bob. If I am not at the meeting, each brother should give the checks to FS Bob directly.
|
Alternatively, if you'd like to donate via venmo, you can scan the QR Code which will deposit the funds directly to our Council's bank account. Please be sure to let me know how much was donated either by check, cash or electronically.

Exemplification Ceremony
The Knights of Columbus has revised the degree program; it is now one Exemplification Ceremony which combines 1st. (Charity) 2nd. Unity and 3rd. Fraternity, our Orders' principles. The one degree is now the Charity, Unity and Fraternity (CUF) degree. The 4th (Patriotism) continues to be a distinct event.
The link below includes a video of the ceremony. Take the time to view this video as a refresher as to what the Knights of Columbus are about and why you joined and to help you explain to your family who the Knights are, what we stand for and what we do.
