Dear Brother Knight:
 
As we continue to be challenged by the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, I am proud of the tremendous work you and your brother Knights are doing every day in service to Leave No Neighbor Behind . The greatness of our Order shines most brightly, and Father Michael McGivney’s vision continues to be brought to fulfillment, because of the work you are doing.
 
The strength that enables us to respond so well in times of need is derived from our membership of more than 2 million men who are dedicated to the principles of charity, unity and fraternity. The coronavirus has presented new challenges to membership recruitment, but we have adapted and made possible   new avenues for men to join our ranks, including the online exemplifications that are hosted by the Supreme Council each week.
 
I personally encourage you to make use of these online exemplifications, which are an important tool to drive the growth needed to allow us to respond to the challenges the coronavirus presents. The Exemplification of Charity, Unity and Fraternity is also a wonderful opportunity for First and Second Degree members to advance to the Third Degree. Detailed procedures and the schedule of upcoming online exemplifications are listed below.
 
Thank you for your efforts to ensure that our Order continues to grow and thrive. May Our Lady of Guadalupe and the Venerable Servant of God Father Michael McGivney guide our efforts and keep us and our loved ones safe.
Fraternally,
Carl A. Anderson
Supreme Knight
