Brother Knights,
Andale Knights of Columbus will meet at the K of C hall on Wednesday, April 8th at 8:00 pm. We will start with a rosary followed by the Council meeting and conclude with refreshments.
Membership: Our Council held 1st, 2nd and 3rd degree ceremonies on February 7th & February 11th. We welcomed 20 new members to our Council. The new members are:
| David Martin Nathan Fischer Garrett Nikkel Ben May Danny Lubbers Clint May Craig Lubbers |
Marcellin Betzen Hunter Smith Trey Landers Rob Powers Tank Keeter Caden Parthemer Cody Parthemer |
Devon Parthemer Lane Parthemer Louis Betzen Tyler Engels Nathan Martin Tucker O’Hair |
Please welcome these fellow brothers and invite them to be active in our council to enhance their experience as Knights. If you know of other men in our community that we should invite to join our Council, please send the names to myself or Tony Veith.
Seminarian Benefit: On March 8th, our council hosted a seminarian breakfast to benefit the Ordination ceremony of brother Isaac Hilger that will take place this May. We were able to raise just shy of $5,000 to help with vestments, chalices, and event cost. The kitchen crew and volunteers did a phenomenal job to make this run smoothly as always even with additions to the menu for a hearty full course breakfast. Huge shoutout to Cole Horner and all the volunteers that made this possible.
Bingo: Wrapping up for the 2026 season with only a couple events left on 4/12 and 4/26. It begins at 6:30 pm. Please contact Bryce Seiler (316) 518-8054 if you would like to join one of the committee groups or can help on any of these Sundays.
Knights BBQ Benefit: Our council will host a BBQ event in the Andale City Park April 25th. We will have music, food, yard games and competitions to raise money for our hall maintenance and operating expenses. We will post flyers and advertisements as invitations for the everyone in the community. This will be a great way for folks to get together after winter and support a great cause. Let me know if you’d like to help with this event.
If you have not paid your annual dues for 2026 (or prior years), please pay as soon as possible. Our dues allow the Andale Council to support many charitable causes in our communities. Contact Tony Veith with questions, (316) 648-7180.
Brother Justin Reichenberger and his family are taking care of cleaning and booking the hall for rentals. If you need to rent the hall or know someone who does, please contact Justin at 316-258-1170.
Vivat Jesus & God Bless,
Grand Knight Pete Hilger
