FIRST CUF EXEMPLIFICATION HELD BY COUNCIL 9678

The first Charity, Unity, Fraternity (CUF) Ceremony conducted by Council 9675 was held on Sunday March 16th at St. Stevens Great Hall. This Exemplification is a ceremony to bring Knights from the 1st to the 3rd degree level in one ceremony.  The five Knight candidates that participated in this ceremony were Doug Zundel, Joe Marr, Don Erickson, Phillip Calvillo, and Rubin Chairez. A photo from the ceremony is shown on the left. Additional pictures can be found in the photo gallery.

For the Good OF The Order Requests

At the Nov2024 Council meeting, GK Halloran suggested that Knights fill out a card containing names of members who need prayers said for them. By downloading, printing, filling out the card, and turning it in prior to the meeting, it removes potential spelling errors when verbal information is given during the meeting.
