AID TO OUR MILITARY: On behalf of those troops we
have supported with military care packages, we thank you. A special thanks to Felix who provided us with
the Christmas decorated bags sent to our troops at Christmas. This program has only been successful due to
those who have contributed and our Knights of Columbus for sending the
packages. This joint effort has been
appreciated by those military who receive them.
Your prayers are requested for them and their safe return. – John Glinka
Moses told the people,
“The Lord will raise up for you a prophet like me from among your own
kinsmen.” God still provides among His
people the gifts and talents necessary to continue the work of His Church. What gifts are yours to share? (See Deuteronomy 18:15)

KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS
THE KNIGHTS SUNDAY NEWS
READ ALL ABOUT IT
!!!!!
The Knights of
Columbus is an organization of generations. For generations to come.
Today we're
looking for the next generation of Knights - men of character and conviction
who are driven by both faith and conscience to do truly meaningful works. And the rewards for members are numerous, from
scholarships for our sons and daughters, to being able to participate in one of
the leading insurance programs in the country.
But of the
countless rewards Knighthood offers, perhaps the most inviting is this: The
knowledge that, as a Knight, you can make a difference: through fearless
service; through heartfelt perseverance; and, above all, through unfaltering
fellowship.
For more
information about how you can become a Knight, please call our Membership
Director, Tom Dalton, after 6:00 PM at 235- 8295.
Vivat Jesus! ~ Al
