Grand Knight's Message

Brother Knights,
Let me introduce myself, I was elected Grand Knight of K of C 345 for the 2018-2019 fraternal year. I am a 4th degree member, I am a member of St Jane’s Church. It is a great honor and a privilege to be for me to be a representative of our organization. Our council has a strong history rooted in Easton. The following churches are in our council. St Jane’s, St Anthony’s, Our Lady of Mercy, and Holy Ghost.

Our council supports Northampton County Special Olympics and Northampton County Miracle League. These are both wonderful organizations. In addition to these organizations we support vocations, sponsor the bus to the Pro-life March in Washington D.C, scholarships for students to attend catholic high schools, honors first responders in the Easton Area, Keep Christ in Christmas Poster Contest. Our biggest fundraisers throughout the year are Lenten Fish Dinners, Palmer Days, and money collections at shopping centers.

Throughout the year our council hosts Family Rosaries at different churches within our council. Our council provides rosary and roses for baptisms. Our council has a webpage and a Facebook Page. Please like our page, have your family and friends like our page.

Supreme has started new programs for the upcoming year, 'Faith in Action' and e-membership program, I will get into more detail as the fraternal year gets going.

For those of you that have not taken your 2nd, 3rd, or 4th degrees please consider taking these degrees. Our council belongs to Pope Pius Assembly 941 for 4th degree.

Thank you to James Di Paolo for his leadership as Grand Knight. Also a special thank you to Jim Szoszorek who has been our District Deputy but has accepted a position as Northeast Pennsylvania Program Director. Dennis Sullivan of the Nazareth Council is our new District Deputy.

Vivat Jesus!
