Grand Knight Corner: 

Brother Knights, this coming Friday is our Spaghetti Feed.  I would like to thank all of the workers in advance for their help.  I would also like to thank each and every one of you who has helped us work the Fish Fries throughout Lent.  These Lenten Meals are a wonderful fund-raiser for our council, but even more importantly, they have become a gathering spot for our fellow parishioners.

     But they also take a lot of work – work that should be rewarded.  The officers and myself are working on an appreciation night for all of the workers at our Lenten Meals.  This night would be catered (none of us have to cook!) and be a great evening to kick back with our families, have some fun, and enjoy each other’s company – without having to work at the same time.  Look for more information to come about this.

Kevin Ostdiek, Grand Knight

Insurance Agent Minute:  Tax-Deferred Annuities:  Are you expecting a tax refund? Even if you’re not, you certainly don’t want to pay more in taxes than you have to. Yet, that’s exactly what you can expect if you have savings that aren’t in a tax-deferred account. Examples include bank savings accounts and certificates of deposit.

     I can help you to find a good place to put that tax refund you might be expecting. The Knights of Columbus offers a highly competitive tax-deferred annuity. You don’t pay income tax on the earnings until you withdraw them – which most likely will occur after you retire. And these tax-deferred earnings compound at a faster rate than money saved in a taxable account.

     You can make one payment and select the age at which you begin receiving benefits. Or, make periodic payments of as much as you want for as long as you want. Either way, an annuity with the Knights of Columbus can provide you with a retirement income you can’t outlive.

     In a financial world characterized by uncertainty, a Knights of Columbus tax-deferred annuity gives you peace of mind. Your principal is guaranteed, and so is a minimum rate of return. What other kinds of investment vehicles give you those guarantees?

     I can provide you with a customized illustration of how an annuity would work for you. Just give me a call.

     Give me a call, I’ll be happy to help. Manny Gallardo (402) 423-0250 E-mail mgallardo@windstream.net

Parish Fund-Raiser:  On April 13th, the Altar Society will be hosting a parish breakfast to raise money to pay for the remodeling of the gym’s kitchenette.  Also, let your wife know that they will be hosting a Pampered Chef Show during this breakfast, which will raise money to replace many of the utensils in the kitchenette.  Please support these worth-while fund-raisers – not only do we Knights use the kitchenette a lot, we are funding half of this remodeling project through our donuts earnings.
