Brothers,

Next week the Diocesan Eucharist Congress will be held at SS Simon and Jude Cathedral. Informational Flyer Attached to this email.

The Cathedral has asked for assistance from the Knights.  There will be a 40 hours of devotion starting on Thursday night, November 21, 2013.  They have asked for  Knights to supply security the 2 nights the cathedral will be open all night. 

Starting Wednesday night November 20th following the 6:30 p.m. Mass, until the start of the 6:30 a.m. Mass Thursday morning.  Then again they will need Knights starting again, after the 6:30 p.m. Mass Thursday night, through the night until the 6:15 a.m. Mass Friday morning, November 22nd.  We would like a minimum of 2 knights at all times.  If possible we would like to have one bilingual knights as well on each shift.

We can break this up into 2 hour shifts starting at 7:30 p.m. each night until 6:30 a.m. the next morning.

This is happening very soon, so we are asking you to send email to the members of your councils right away and encourage them to help.  If they can help please ask them to email, the possible times they would be available, to AzKnights@Q.com .  Or call 623-536-4801.

Please give this message a wide distribution and encourage the Knights support.
