Brother Knights, as we enter the final stretch of the election season, and with the upcoming November general election only a few weeks away, it is crucial to remember the importance of being informed constituents who exercise our right to vote. As Knights, we are not only Catholic citizens, but also play an active role in shaping our communities and holding our elected officials accountable.

In order to assist our members in fulfilling their duty of faithful citizenship, the Knights of Columbus has compiled guidelines for political activity. These guidelines are designed to help us to effectively navigate the political landscape with the integrity and respect befitting a Brother Knight.

The 96th Ultrasound unit dedication took place on Tuesday, August 20th at Options Pregnancy Center in Alpena. This Ultrasound placement was made possible through the commitment and leadership of Thunder Bay Council #6851 members and twelve other Knights of Columbus councils. About half of the funds were raised during the Posen Potato Festival in 2022. During the summer of 2022 Options Pregnancy Center purchased a new building, which required renovations to accommodate the Ultrasound unit. Special thank you to Gerald Boerner, Grand Knight, Council #6851 and other members who donated 580 hours to the building renovation.
