CAN YOU MAKE A FEW PHONE CALLS?

We will be sending invitations to 5-10 people each month.  These invitations will be sent to prospective new members for our council.  We need your help.  A simple phone call will be made asking the gentleman if we can come visit him to give him information about our council and the Knights of Columbus.

Can you help do this for your council?  If so please or you want more information please call Dan Bacon.  816-781-1670

Our annual Roses for Life campaign is planned for this weekend. (Jan 3-4)  Please help your round table coordinator distribute the roses at your parish.  Brother Knight Will James will be taking them to Washington D.C. for delivery to our US Senator Claire McCaskil to show that there are Missourians who vote pro-life.

If you are working on your 2015 calendar be sure to put your Bingo times on the calendar.  That way you will be sure to not miss your scheduled time to work for your team.

This year Good Friday is on April 3rd.  We will not be conducting Bingo that night.  All teams will move back a week from that point onwards.  Finnigans hall has a rental for one Friday in April which means we will move everyone back another week.  This was a known event when we started there but the date was not available at publication time.  Once that date is confirmed we will let you know.

If there is a bad weather cancellation we do not move the teams.  In those cases the team just gets the night off.  We will post updates on the bingo website about any cancellation.  That address is BingoKnights.org

The Value of Life Insurance for Children

As a father, you worry about your children and do everything you can to protect them. You try to raise them right and make sure they are prepared to become adults. But have you ever thought about buying life insurance for your child?

When you insure a child, you are protecting his or her future. Did you know that one out of every six adults get rated, postponed, or denied for insurance coverage? If you purchase a policy for your child from the Knights of Columbus with a guaranteed purchase option, it guarantees that more insurance can be purchased for that child without proving insurability.

Unfortunately, as fathers we don't have a crystal ball, and we don't know what the future may have in store for our children's health. But did you know that right now you can purchase a child's policy, in many cases, for less than $10 a month?

I've heard it said that people don't want to "profit" from the death of a child, so they won't purchase coverage on their children. God forbid something tragic happens, those funds can come in handy at a time when finances will be the last thing on a parent's mind. I have never heard a story about someone who regretted buying coverage on their child.

Contact me today to discuss the many policy options for child plans, including 10- and 20-Pay life insurance.
