fund will rise so that we can help many brother knights
when their need arise.
If you are or know a brother in need whom the 365 Club
might help, see your Grand Knight privately. Any brother
receiving assistance from the 365 Club remains complete
anonymous.

assistance, so please be generous with your donations.

 Training Success as a
Grand Knight
The grand knight is the highest ranking elected officer
of his council. When he is successful in completing the
duties of this office, his council will move forward and
thrive. To assist grand knights in implementing their
duties and adding an important page to the history of our
Order, the Supreme Council is proud to make available
this comprehensive training
module.
It was created to provide uniformity to the training
message that our council leaders receive. Grand knights
can view this training production at their own pace and
utilize the information in it to guide them in their
duties as council leaders.
 District
Deputy’s Success Starts With Training
For anyone to be successful at a job, he needs to be
properly trained in all facets of his position. The
Supreme Council is proud to announce a comprehensive training
module
for district deputies. It was created to provide
uniformity to the training message that our district
leaders receive. A DVD of the training module was
recently mailed to every district deputy and is now
available for district deputies to train and review at
their own pace.
