We are about a week from having an Admission Degree & Business Meeting

We are about a week from having an Initiation Degree & Business Meeting.

I'll put out an agenda soon.  But here are some of the ideas bouncing around in my head:

1. First of all, Ted is becoming a permanent employee of Intel.  Good news for our council, as well as his family.  Deo Gratias!
2. We have been asked by the Archdiocese to prepare the Trimbly House (the actual rectory of St. Clare's at the corner of the school campus) for the Echo Program- three single lay theology students will be living there starting in August for a year, serving at St. Clare's, St Pius X, and Holy Trinity.  Five councils have been asked to participate in this.  Mike Devlin has agreed to lead this.
3. We've lost our June 3rd breakfast, but for a good cause.  Our seminarian Council Member is being ordained June 2nd, he will be saying his first Mass at 8:30 am at St. Clare's June 3rd.  We may yet be asked to help with the reception afterwards.
4. To that end, we have two seminarians we are associated with becoming priests.  I think we should do something special for them, come to the meeting to find out what it is.
5. We have a breakfast scheduled at St. John Fisher May 6th .  Hopefully by then we will have a better picture of upcoming financial needs for the summer
6. Nobody has volunteered to go to Lebanon at the end of April for the State Convention
