Worthy
District Deputies, Worthy Grand Knights and Brothers all,
July 1st
will be the start of the new Diocesan fiscal year for all the Catholic Dioceses
in Arizona. This also means it is time to complete your “Safe Environment”
training, and if you have already taken the training in previous years you will
only need to renew. If you have Brothers
that can not complete or do not have the means to online training, the dioceses
still have classes that our Brothers can attend. Please visit the website below
to find more information. Our Worthy
Supreme Knight Carl Anderson stated, “It is our duty and obligations that ALL
Knights of Columbus members are required to meet their local Diocesan Safe
Environmental Training policies and to ensure the protection of our youth and
elderly!”
The Diocese of Phoenix
Safe Environment Office has a new online at:
The Diocese of
Tucson’s training called “Safe environment” can be found at:
The Diocese of
Gallup’s Save Environment information can be found at:
The Board
of Directors of the Knights of Columbus decided to continue a stronger
commitment in youth protection by designating the following official positions
in Knights of Columbus to receive mandatory
Praesidiuim Armatus online safe
environment training: State Deputies, State Advocates, State Youth Directors,
Grand Knights, Youth Directors, Chief Counselors and Faithful Navigators. To complete your Armatus online training
please log on to “Officer Desktop” on the Supreme website and follow the
instructions. Please understand you are
still required to meet your diocesan requirements.
As a part
of the leadership team of the Arizona Knights of Columbus, we need to set the
example to our Brother Knights. Please complete your renewal by July 30,
2017. Our Worthy Financial Secretaries
should create and maintain a current list of members who are active volunteers
in the council, both in church ministries and activities sponsored by the
Knights of Columbus, and then have a current list of all members who have
completed diocesan safe environment requirements. They should be prepared to
share these lists with the diocesan safe environment coordinator upon requests.
Please feel
free to reach out to me with any questions or concerns.
Vivat
Jesus!
