Here's a patriotic offer that supports a good cause:
The Knights of Columbus are offering the display of an American flag at your residence or business six patriotic holidays a year for only $24.00 per flag. We will set up Old Glory at dawn and come take her down at dusk.
We ask the question... What happened to all the flags? Where is Your Flag?
Call us once, and six times a year, it will be right out front.
Since it was incorporated on March 29, 1882, almost 121 years ago, the Knights of Columbus has grown from several members in one council to more than 12,000 councils and over 1.6 million members throughout the United States, Canada, and around the world.
Charity, Unity, Fraternity, and Patriotism - these are the watchwords of the Knights of Columbus. And, since 1882, Knights of Columbus have backed up these words with actions.
One of the many accomplishments of the Knights of Columbus over the years is my personal favorite. In 1954, the Knights of Columbus led the effort to officially include the words "under God" in the Pledge of Allegiance to the American flag, a crusade that resulted in federal legislation signed by US President Dwight D. Eisenhower.
Millions of Catholic men have been Knights of Columbus, including baseball great Babe Ruth and President John F. Kennedy. The Knights of Columbus have been praised by popes, presidents and other world leaders, for support of the Church, programs of evangelization and Catholic education, civic involvement and aid to those in need.
The Knights of Columbus are focusing our efforts towards one of the aforementioned ideals. - Patriotism.
