Brothers:
We have a few urgent openings in our council that need to be filled.
To be success, a council needs to succeed at programming and recruitment. Working together, the St. Paul's Council has met with great success over the years. However, there comes a time when brothers who have served with distinction need to be given an opportunity to step down and pass the shoulder of responsibility over to others.
The new executive was elected at our last meeting. I will be filling the director positions over the next couple of weeks. Surge...with Service program manual (#962) contains information on the expectations, duties and responsibilities of the various directors. If you are interested in serving as a director, please let me know.
At this point, after five years of dedicated service as the leader of our successful First Degree Term, Brother Derm Whelan is stepping aside. I would like to congratulate Derm on his commitment to the the First Degree in terms of recruiting new members, training the degree team and scheduling. He has been a stalwart giving of his time and talent.
New member recruitment is the lifeblood of our organization. Having a first degree team in our parish has enabled us to ensure that perspective members are given an opportunity to join the order every month.
At this point the First Degree Team will need a leader and we may have one, or two, open positions.
If your are interested in joining the First Degree Team, please let me know at whittlep@nf.sympactico.ca or stpaulsgrandknight@gmail.com.
