Happy New Year
Dear reader;

On behalf of the Knights of Columbus, Our Lady of the Hills Council and my family, I wish you a healthy 2018!

I am reminded of all that we have accomplished so far during the first half of my second mandate as Grand Knight of this Great Council. I renew my committed to ensure we continue to achieve our objectives, especially in regards to our service and charitable goals, to do this we need as many of you as possible participating in our events. We have a really critical on coming up on January 21st, this is our first event for 2018, the 51st Annual Communion Breakfast, now named the PGK Francis Comune Memorial Communion Breakfast.

PGK Comune (Judgie) had chaired this event for 30 years at the time of his calling to eternal life. At this marquee event, in addition to memorializing our departed brothers on who’s shoulders we now stand, we also honor individuals from our Community, Parish and Council for their outstanding participation.

To continue to be relevant in our Community, Parish and Order, United as a council, through our Charter and as Catholic families, I invite you to participate in our events enabling growth and charitable success.

Vivat Jesu,
PGK Manuel N Cirne
