THE NAVIGATOR OF St. Ambrose Council #1463 Knights Of Columbus Proud member of the 27th District of Queens and

Commodore John Barry Assembly #712 Fourth Degree

Proud member of the Long Island Chapter the service arm of the Knights of Columbus

FROM THE GRAND KNIGHT

Brother Knights and Sister Columbiettes, Happy Easter to all! I want to thank everyone for Supporting

our biggest fundraiser event of the year; our St. Patrick's Day Dance. This year we honored two past Grand Knights; Robert Graziano and Deacon John Reichert. I want to thank Mike Palumbo PGK for his efforts in bringing the Lenten Live Stations of the Cross to St. Fidelis. This was a great event for the council and the parish. This provided a great time to reflect on our Catholicism. . In conclusion, I would ask for all members to come down to the council and get involved any way you can. We need all the help we can to continue our charitable work. Thank you for your continued support. God Bless. John Quinn Grand Knight

FROM THE PRESIDENT Sister Columbiettes and Brother Knights,

Much time has passed since our last issue of the Navigator but your hard work hasn’t been forgotten. At this time I would like

to give an overdue debt of thanks to all Columbiettes and Brother Knights whose assistance was so critical in helping us meet

our goals. From our Installation back in September, to the chairladies who organized our Halloween and Grocery Bingo fund-

raisers, those that helped feed the homeless at the Reformed Church, those that assisted with the Children’s Christmas party and

every single member who donated their time and resources to any event that our council hosted. I do sincerely appreciate all

that you do.

In December the Columbiettes welcomed five new members. We congratulate Loretta LoPrinzi, Jessica Martire, Alicia Pavon,

Jessica Rivera and Lorraine Walsh for making their First Degree. We hope that they come to know the camaraderie and sister-

hood that we all share. Again I thank the members that attend our monthly meetings because they are the reason we continue

our good works. Our Columbiettes work tirelessly and unselfishly to assist us in our fundraising efforts so that this organization

can continue to go forward. They sacrifice their time to work these events so that they can be enjoyed by all. Their generosity

and commitment is unmatched. Special thanks go out to those members who are unable to attend meetings but still lend their

support whenever possible.

We couldn’t do this without EVERYONE’S support. Some of you may feel that what you have to give isn’t enough. Remem-

ber that even when you give what little you have, God will multiply it. Perhaps some of you don’t feel you have the time to give

to this organization? Perhaps you don’t have the resources to give as generously as you would like? Perhaps you worry about

what others would expect from you? We can’t permit ourselves to think in that fashion. Each of us has abilities, skills, talents

and gifts that God has blessed us with and they are unique and He expects us to bless others with our gifts. Your gifts may not

be that of someone else’s. But when it all comes together, IT WORKS! We have to believe that if He gives you the vision,

He’ll give you the provision. May God continue to bless our efforts! AMEN!

God’s blessings to you all,

Mia Coppola
