"365 CLUB" in Nevada

Brother Knights the 365 Club was instituted in the 2000/2001 Columbian Year.  With your generous contributions we have been able to help many of our brother knights in their time of distress. If we all contribute just ONE PENNY A DAY, this 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.

Remember, we never know when anyone of us may need assistance, so please be generous with your donations.

Fraternally,

Carl “Ted” Aceto P.S.D.
365 Club Chairman

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.


Leadership Materials @ kofc.org

Knightline : Program Supplement
Published monthly, Knightline (which beginning in 2010 was combined with Program Supplement) is a vital resource for local K of C leaders. The newsletter features news from the Supreme Council office, actions of the Order's Board of Directors, a column on Knights of Columbus insurance up-to-date program and membership growth events for the coming months that the council, assembly or circle can become involved with. Past issues of Knightline and Program Supplement can be accessed as well.

District Deputy Reminder
The District Deputy Reminder highlights current K of C initiatives. It is forwarded to all district deputies to help them keep current on the Order's objectives. The newsletter reminds district leaders about upcoming deadlines and offers suggestions for meetings, recruitment activities and volunteer programs.

Officer Handbooks and Training Modules
Officer handbooks provide a general overview of the duties and responsibilities of officer positions within the Order along with reference sections on laws and rules within the K of C.

Membership Growth
Recruiting new members is essential to the continued growth and well-being of your council and the Order. Offering a man membership in the Knights of Columbus gives him the opportunity to improve his own life and his community. Membership allows him to experience the fraternal bond that Knights share while growing closer to his family and faith. We provide many tools to help with membership recruitment and growth.

  • Membership Newsletter (Archive 2004 - 2008) provides ideas and suggestions for council leaders on membership recruitment activities on a quarterly basis.

Service Program Materials
A Knights of Columbus council can work wonders; in fact, with its many programs, it can help change the community, town, city or neighborhood in which you live. However, a successful Knights of Columbus program depends on people taking the initial idea, modifying it to suite specific situations and local needs, then implementing the program in the way it works.

Guides are available for many Knights of Columbus programs and activities. These guides provide step-by-step instructions for conducting and promoting some of the Order's most popular programs.

Squires Publications
Squires Newsletter provides program information and monthly updates for leaders of Columbian Squires circles. The Squires is the youth organization of the Knights of Columbus.
Circle Compass is published on a monthly basis and is distributed to circle counselors as a means of keeping them informed on the latest developments of the Squires program.
