Knight of the Month for September: Nick Leon
Nick has been a notably active Brother Knight since joining our council a few months ago. His pleasant demeanor and earnest volunteerism have quickly “put him on the map” in our council. He and his lovely wife Chloe have been awarded Family of the Month already, and he has committed to assisting with media duties, such as: Bishop Grady KofC Website and Pinta Log. His existing experience in leadership from his previous Council (Deltona 6584) has been a boon for us, as his participation increases. We are blessed to have him in our Council and look forward to his continued pursuits! Nick ha sido un Hermano Caballero notablemente activo desde que se unió a nuestro consejo hace unos meses. Su actitud amable y su ferviente voluntariado lo han puesto rápidamente en el mapa de nuestro consejo. Él y su encantadora esposa Chloe ya han sido galardonados como Familia del Mes, y se ha comprometido a colaborar con los medios de comunicación, como el sitio web del Obispo Grady KofC y el Registro de Pinta. Su experiencia en liderazgo, adquirida en su anterior Consejo (Deltona 6584), ha sido una gran ayuda para nosotros, ya que su participación ha aumentado. ¡Nos sentimos bendecidos de tenerlo en nuestro Consejo y esperamos con ansias que continúe su labor! If you would like to nominate a Knight of the month, submit a Knight of the Month Nomination form. |
