I am proud to say that we have met all our obligations to the Knights supreme and State organiza- tions. Additionally, we met each of our programming, membership and insurance goals for the year qualifying us for Star Council. Past Grand Knight Bisell had the vision to achieve this in 2015. He took it personally watching all the other councils receive recognition for their efforts. It made him ask, why not us? We do all those things! He mentioned his goal of being a Star Council to us and it was received with lukewarm enthusiasm. I had my own doubts and little interest at first. I gradually arrived at his way of thinking at the following 2016 State conven- tion. I saw the same awards and the same lack of recognition for the incredible activities and results our council achieved. I had the same thoughts. We’re doing all these things. Why not us? With just a little focus in a few key areas and some extra documentation, that can be us. May / June, Quite frankly, that should be us! Bisell, let’s do it. Let’s go for Star Council! Issue 6 The brilliance of this award is the motivation and structure it provides to do all the right things.

    All Member Business Division AB01: BEST EXAMPLE OF EFFECTIVE ADVERTISING PROMOTION ORIGINATING WITH THE PUBLICATION OR PUBLICATION'S WEBSITE First Place Rhode Island Catholic, “Bishop Tobin Ad Promotion” by Richard Lafond Very nice. The writing is long-winded, flowery and 'flowy'—but quite elegant and fitting for the occasion. The whole story is there (in just 1 page). I know exactly what's happening—and I dont know the man and I have never been there.The shift in sizes and fonts—message to message—is very very smooth and beautiful. The page is nicely laid out. The masthead at the bottom even plays like part of the text.Finally, the call for advertising is subtle and concise—and does not draw away from (or override) the event, or the man. Second Place Northwest Catholic, “Senior VItality” by Keri Hake, Advertising Sales Manager, Ron Anderson, Advertising Representative This is an excellent advertisement and the theme/message could not possibly be more relevant: 18,000 families facing critical decisions on life/death. That said, there are a few shortcomings. The layout is 'cramped' in two spots: 1. Beneath 'October 17' (text: 'Reservations due: August 16 Materials due: August 30') The text is crowding in on itself. And we don't know What reservations? What materials? My eyes havent even hit the photo. It's confusing and it gets lost. The information should be at the bottom (as a part of a call to action) and the text layout, visually, needs an extra buffer space. 2. The text is similarly cramped beneath the “125,000 Catholic Families Need Your Help” headline.

Yet, when Twe look into priestly formation today, there is a great sense of confidence and support of today’s seminarians. Through the way we prepare, evaluate, and equip seminarians with the skills needed Very Rev. James A. Wehnerfor ministry and address issues that deal with professionalism, relationships, intimacy, friendships, Rector/President and boundaries, I believe Notre Dame Seminary remains on the forefront of how we competently deal with such matters. I thank God for our faculty and staff, the men who are taking their forma- tion seriously, the laity who are enrolled in our programs, and the benefactors who make priestly formation possible due to their generosity. We remain a healthy, vibrant seminary community due to the integrity of standards and excellence. In the midst of all this, we launched the first Annual Fund to support two key programs at the seminary: Missionary Formation in Puerto Rico and Leadership Formation provided by the Catho- lic Leadership Institute. Both of these programs aim to prepare seminarians for pastoral ministry in the 21st century.
