We are inviting any 3rd Degree member to become a 4th Degree Member who will be Exemplified on May 4, 2025. This is the Louisiana District Special 125th Anniversary of the Fourth Degree. We are doing this in conjunction with the 120th Louisiana KC State Convention from May 2 & 3, 2025 where we will celebrate with a Memorial Mass, Council Successes from the Fraternal Year, a crawfish boil, and a Hospitality Room on Friday Night. Saturday, we will address the Business of the State, Mass, Banquet, and a Band, with a hospitality Room.
In conjunction with the Convention, we will have the 4th Degree Uniform Company attending this year so anyone wishing to purchase the uniform or get replacements for worn parts of the uniform can make purchases on site. He will be available Friday and Saturday if anyone is interested. This is a fantastic opportunity to talk to members to come out and get fitted properly for the uniform and get all the necessary parts of the uniform. Every Candidate will receive a special 125th Anniversary Certificate along with a 125 th Anniversary Challenge.
If we get 125 candidates on that date, then the candidate will receive both as Such from the KC Supreme Office.
The Exemplification will be the newest version which is open to the Public. We need everyone to understand that this is open to women,children, and all families will be able to view this event. This is a fantastic opportunity to view our Catholic American History as you have yet to see in many years. It is important to understand that the Council and Assemblies work together to turn in the names and who will attend the Exemplification and/or the banquet that follows. We need a head count for both, so we can have proper seating. If you are a member with the uniform and want to attend, your assembly needs to know this so they can add you to the list as attending. I look forward to seeing all the paperwork, form 4’s, and one check from each Assembly turned in no later than April 15, 2025. There will be no forms accepted after this date. You have time to get your candidates together but get those in on time. Thank You!
