Holy Ghost Council is moving forward to win STAR COUNCIL for this year thanks to your efforts! But we are short one goal, we need at least 6 more members to participate in a Fraternal Benefit Event.

When is the next online event? May 19, 7:00pm Central.

How do I attend? Register for the event at http://mkto-ab220178.com/MTAxLVZDRC02MTAAAAGgpSqjwKPoCsyLfaauIbxoO8z2jaNjCaz5DlT4EQbQXYf0ecLCvlxSIFo_NDtANwXi15Ktjkc=
then log in and watch 5/19 7pm.

Once registered you will get a confirmation email and the Link instructions.

What do I have to do? Log in and watch the video and complete a short survey at the end of the event. Stay logged in and watching for the whole video, if you log out early we do not get credit for your attendance.

EXTRA request: Please email me at thomas1882@tuta.com to let me know you plan to attend. We are nearing the end of the fraternal year and I want to make sure we make the goal!!

Other FAQ: Attendance counts are for events this fraternal year only. We have to do this each year. Each person can only be counted once a year so I am looking for brothers that have NOT watched any FBEs this fraternal year.

Any questions, please let me know. Please help us reach this goal.
