As we look back on two incredible years of our council, gratitude fills our hearts. Earning the Double Star Council Award for our first two years is an impressive achievement. It reflects the dedication, hard work, and enthusiasm of our members, leadership, and our esteemed chaplain, Fr. Hils.
The Double Star Council Award represents our achievement of reaching 200% of our membership goals. More importantly, it highlights our commitment to service, community, and brotherhood. This is about more than just numbers; it showcases the teamwork and collective spirit that drive our council toward excellence.
The Importance of the Double Star Council Award
The Star Council Award recognizes remarkable accomplishments in three key areas: membership, insurance, and programming. For our council to receive this honor, we needed to earn the Father McGivney, Founders’, and Columbian Awards. Additionally, we submitted essential documents like the Annual Survey of Fraternal Activity and the Service Program Personnel Report. We also ensured compliance with safe environment requirements.
Reaching all these milestones while achieving 200% of our membership goal illustrates our growth and the vibrant spirit of our organization.
Strong Leadership
At the heart of our council's success is our exceptional leadership. We extend sincere thanks to our council leaders for their steadfast support, vision, and guidance. Their commitment has propelled us to these achievements and created an environment where every member feels valued and encouraged to contribute.
Chaplain Fr. Hils: A Steadfast Guide
Much of our success can be attributed to our chaplain, Fr. Hils. His spiritual guidance and encouragement inspire us to uphold our founding principles of charity, unity, fraternity, and patriotism. Fr. Hils embodies these values and consistently reminds us of our mission to serve others.
His consistent prayers and support uplift our spirits and create a strong sense of community among our members. The foundation he has nurtured will help our council continue to flourish in the years ahead.
