Dear Fellow Brother Knights,
The Rosary is a sword which little by little cuts through the veil of darkness,
which blinds our society about the evils of abortion, euthanasia, etc.
I deeply urge all Knights to take up their swords daily and pray for the
conversion of the hearts of all our Brothers and Sisters who have fallen victim
to the lies of the pro-choice movement.
We are all victims, there are no winners !
Brothers and Families, join the Knights and the thousands of others from
throughout British Columbia on Thursday, May 10, 2012 for the Knights of
Columbus 5th Annual March for Life in Victoria, British Columbia.
Protect Human Life…over the action-packed day, participants will peacefully
share their deep commitment to Life…. from conception to natural death. Last but not least, I am delighted that we have continually seen growth in the
participation of our members in our service programs and appreciate the
sustained commitment of the new and the so many long time Knights and
Ladies to achieving our goals. This was apparent when our council received
five(5) recognition awards during the Knights of Columbus 101st Annual
British Columbia and Yukon State Convention held at Sheraton Vancouver
Airport Hotel in Richmond, British Columbia from April 27 to 29, 2012.
(please see page 12 of this newsletter) I would be slipshod in not mentioning the Mom’s out there, and how much we
appreciate all you do in keeping our Knights of Columbus Families moving.
Happy Mother’Happy Mother’Happy Mother’Happy Mother’s Days Days Days Day!!!! Vivat Jesus !!

The Added Value of LTC Insurance
As life expectancy increases, the number of people in need of long-
term care, in their homes or outside facilities, has grown also. Since
its addition to the Order’s product portfolio in 2000, long-term care
(LTC) insurance has provided the Order with an excellent
opportunity to further serve Knights and their families. Since 2005,
every Knights of Columbus long-term care policy comes with an
added value.
That added value is in the form of a service called “Provider
Pathway,” a program offering access to a network of long-term care
providers at discounted rates. The network covers: home health
care, personal emergency response systems, adult day care, assisted
living, skilled nursing facilities and durable medical equipment.
Eligibility for participation in this program is open to Knights of
Columbus long-term care insurance policyholders, their spouses,
dependent children, parents and parents-in-law. All providers
are fully credentialed and meet state licensing requirements.
If you are not currently an LTC policyholder, I suggest that we
schedule some time together so that I can provide additional
information on how you can avail yourself of this significant, value-
added benefit.
I’m at 778-837-2317 or [email protected].
Wear your Knights of Columbus (name tag) Badge to Mass. Show everyone that you are honored to be a Knight.

WORLD DAY OF PRAYER
FOR VOCATIONS
APRIL 29, 2012
Each year, on the Fourth Sunday of Easter,
Knights throughout the world participate on
the annual World Day of Prayer for Vocations.
This day is an opportunity for all Knights to
raise awareness of the need for men and
women to say yes to their vocations, especially
if one is called to the priesthood or religious
life.
With the help of the Knights of Columbus,
thousands will hear their calls as a result of
our prayers and vocation materials.
As Knights, we know the difference that one
good priest can make.
A PRAYER FOR VOCATIONS
Heavenly Father, bless Your Church with an
abundance of holy and zealous priests,
deacons, brothers and sisters.
Give those You have called to the married
state and those You have chosen to live as
single persons in the world the special graces
that their lives require.
Form us all in the likeness of Your Son so that
in Him, with Him and through Him we may
love You more deeply and serve You more
faithfully, always and everywhere. With Mary
we ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

continually been in service to the Order. Currently, he is in the Executive Office in the capacity of a Council
