I wanted to share what the duties are of the 4thn Degree with our members:
For Church… Financially support causes addressing religious, civic and educational needs. Promote active support of the Refund Support Vocations Program (RSVP) and funds the Pro Deo and Pro Patria Scholarship Program. Provide honor guards for the Holy Father on his visits to the countries where the Order exists. Provide honor guards to local churches for special Masses and ceremonies. For Country… Sponsor programs that promote respect, knowledge, and protection for national flags. Promote legislation to protect the flag as the symbol of the nation and its history. Present free flags to local churches, public and parochial schools, libraries, etc. Place the national flag at the graves of military veterans on certain holidays. Conduct “Get Out the Vote” awareness campaign to stress the importance of voting and assist in taking home-bound citizens to the polls. Promote programs that encourage love of country and support the application of Christian principles at all levels of government. Encourage active participation in programs for Church, country, and the Order. Sponsor youth essay contests geared to patriotic themes. Organize and participate in parades and public events to mark patriotic holidays. And The Order… Participate at wakes and funerals; presents a “Resolution of Condolence” to the family of a deceased member. Sponsor a program to commemorate the death of a member by presenting a memorial chalice to a priest in need. Honor veterans by volunteering at veterans’ hospitals, health care facilities and homes for the elderly.
