Lovely Ladies and Brother Knights.
With a humble heart, I thank our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, with the intercession of our Blessed Mother Mary and our Patron Saint Joseph, for our awesome Knights of Columbus Council.
Through our blessings from Heaven and your sacrifice, dedication, and hard work, St. Joseph the Protector Council 16255 earned the STAR COUNCIL Award for Columbian Year 2023-2024.
The Knights of Columbus Star Council Award is an annual recognition given to councils that excel across several areas, including membership recruitment and retention, insurance promotion, and the conduct of well-rounded service program activities. To earn the Star Council Award, our council met specific criteria and benchmarks set by the Supreme Council. These criteria included:
- Achieving our membership quota for the fraternal year
- Achieving our insurance quota
- Submitting the required reports and forms on time
- Conducting programs from each of the Faith in Action program categories (Faith, Family, Community, and Life)
- Complying with the rules and regulations of the Order
The Star Council Award is considered one of the highest honors a Knights of Columbus council can achieve. It recognizes the council’s commitment to the principles of the Order – Charity, Unity, Fraternity, and Patriotism – and their dedication to serving their church, community, and fellow members through various initiatives and programs.
The California State Deputy called us and gave his Congratulations to our outstanding council.
We made the list with 2 months to spare.
CONGRATULATIONS!!
