FROM THE GRAND KNIGHT
Brother Knights and Sister Columbiettes,
During this Easter Season I have been reflecting on the many blessing that God has
given me. I have been blessed with a wonderful family that love and support me through all
my travels in life. I can not imagine life without all of you!
I am also blessed to be Grand Knight of a great council. I always knew our council
was special in my heart. I am so happy to be a part of St. Ambrose council for many years
and proud of all our members. I never really understood the full impact of our council and
the dedication of our members until I attended the New York State Council Convention last
April as a delegate of St. Ambrose Council. Our council has an incredible reputation within
our state and an outstanding level of respect all over the state. This is through the many
years of hard work and dedication of our members. I had the pleasure of meeting so many
brothers from all over the state. I never knew how powerful our state council is and how
much great work they do. I was honored to meet and take a picture with Supreme Advocate
John Marrella and Supreme Director Arthur Harris. The best part of all of this was
representing all of you! I am so proud of all of you and the great work that you do for our
council and especially our church. I am truly blessed!!!
As always may God Bless all of you and your family!

300 CLUB Big Drawing will be Friday June 24, Starting 7:30 P.M. The 300 Club is a council fundraiser which helps our council do many of the charitable programs that we provide to the com-
munity and beyond. There are 300 numbers in every drawing. Each number is $26 for a term of six months. When you pur-
chase a number you own that number for the term. Your number qualifies you to several small drawings during the term and
qualifies you to the Big drawing at the end of the term. At the Big drawing which is held in January and July of each year,
your number pays for a fun time at the Big Drawing which includes beer, wine and soda with sandwiches that is provided to
all Club Members. For more information contact Chairman Gil Mendez 516-270-4284 [email protected] for
information. MAKE CHECKS PAYABLE TO 300 CLUB

LONG ISLAND CHAPTER
Brothers,
By now all of our Brother Knights have received the three chances from the Long Island Chapter Charity Drive.
If you have already sent them out, we thank you. If you have not done so, you can always bring them down on meeting night and I'll take them down
for you since I have to attend the monthly meeting of the Chapter. You can also drop them in our mail box and I will take them in the morning when I
am in the council. Thank you for your cooperation.

Our council will be promoting
praying the rosary especially during
the month of May in honor of our
Blessed Mother.
We have purchased 2000 rosary rings and “How
to pray the rosary”, prayer cards in English and
Spanish. We will be handing them out at all the
masses at St. Fidelis.
We need all of our members to
help us with this special project.
Remember our promise to God to carry
our rosary with us always and to pray it
often. Lets encourage everyone to pray
to our Blessed Mother and to open a
better relationship with God through
prayer. Contact Bob Graziano for more information,
