Security Codes

Before too long, if the TCA Board approves, we will soon have a security system monitoring our buildings.  This will mean that those enter and LEAVING the building will need to use a KeyPad to arm and disarm our alarm system.

Anyone who has an key to any of our external doors will be needing a PIN so you can disarm the alarm. 

 Just as importantly re-arming the alarm when leaving is crucial.  It does us no good whatsoever to be paying for an alarm system that is turned off. 

We expect to install the system in January 2014.

Our Keymaster should know who has an external key and we will use that list to contact those people who will need a PIN assigned to them.

NO DEGREE IN JANUARY

There will not be an exemplification of the First Degree as part of our January meeting.

How about starting the New Year off on the right foot and recruit someone to be a member of our council.  We are getting more publicity in the two parish bulletins and hopefully more men will become aware of who we are and what we do.

Ask someone at Mass next weekend to join the Knights of Columbus.

Insurance check-up for 2014

Where did 2013 go? It seems like it was summer yesterday and Easter was last week.

I hope you and your family had a great finish to 2013. Now, the first quarter of 2014 will soon be speeding by.  

 

Hopefully, you've established a few goals for this year. I've learned a great tip regarding resolutions. First, write them down. It's not too late if you haven't already done this. Commit your goals to paper and post it someplace you will see it often. Writing down a goal is the first step towards achieving it. I don't know exactly how this works, but I've heard stories of the success this simple task can bring. Whether your goal is to exercise more, give more to charity, read more or watch less television, you're more likely to accomplish it if you write it down.

 

Second, resolve to have an expert look at your finances. I recommend that you have a team of experts help you, and I should be among the first you sit with. Schedule some time to visit with me, your professional Knights of Columbus insurance agent, and I'll provide an "insurance check-up" (at no cost!) that will quickly identify any gaps in your family's life insurance program. And you'll want to fill those gaps now, not later. Unlike many other products, you don't just need money to obtain life insurance; you also need good health, and no one knows when your health could change.

 

Did I mention my check-up is free of charge? When was the last time you received something for free that could be providing value to you and your family for generations? Call me today.  816-781-1670
