Brothers,
This time of year, we give thanks for the many blessings in our lives. I’m thankful to call each of you my brother Knight, and I give thanks to God for all He has helped us do in our community this year.
Like many of you, I became a Knight out of love for my family. I wanted to join other Catholic men in becoming a better man, husband, and father. I wanted to be a better protector of my family. Knights of Columbus is your capable partner in this pursuit. In addition to helping form members in faith, we also offer a variety of insurance products to help you protect your family financially.
One way to protect your family is to start thinking about your family’s future and how an extended care event could make a large impact. Do you know somebody who has experienced an extended care event? If so, how did that impact their family’s situation? I want to take this opportunity to help you prepare for the possibility that you or your spouse may one day need extended care.
November is Long-Term Care Awareness Month. With that in mind, I’d like to share a valuable resource available to you and your family, and I encourage you to check it out. WhatCareCosts gives you access to view the costs of Skilled Nursing Homes, Home Health Aides, and Assisted Living Facilities in your area and across the country. This service is available free of charge to all our members, regardless of whether or not you hold an insurance policy with Knights of Columbus. Visit www.whatcarecosts.com/KnightsofColumbus and enter sponsor code “KofC” to get started.
We want to help families focus on their time with their loved ones—not the financial cost of caring for them. Now is the time to prepare for your family’s future needs. As your Knights of Columbus agent, I can help you review your financial goals and ensure you have an extended care plan in place. Come talk to me to set up an appointment.
Optional: Please take a copy of our Gift of a Lifetime brochure to learn more about planning for extended care.
Thank you for your time, and I wish you and your loved ones a blessed Thanksgiving.
Vivat Jesus!
