St. Mary’s Parish will be holding its 86th annual festival on Sunday, August, 20, 2017 and as usual, the festival’s Zippy Bun Booth will be set up and run by members of the council. (For newer members not familiar with a zippy bun sandwich, it’s nothing more than a pile of roast beef between two bun halves dripping with aus jus and is one of the most popular food items at the festival.) We’re still in need of volunteers to man some of the two hour shifts.
If you can help at the booth, please leave a message for at 916-736-0953. THANKS!
A Memorial Service will be held on Sunday November 1st immediately following the 10:30 AM Divine Liturgy at St. George Melkite-Greek Catholic Church. All Knights and their families are encouraged to come and pray for our brother Knights who have fallen asleep in the Lord this past year. The Memorial Service just takes a few minutes. Following the Memorial Service there will be refreshments served in the Parish Hall.
O Christ God, with the saints grant rest to the souls of your servants, in a place where there is no pain, no grief, no sighing, but everlasting life. May their memory be eternal.

A day retreat for the Knights and their Spouses
Cultivating Peace, Embracing Wonder Words of Reassurance in a Time of Darkness Father McGivney took seriously the command of Jesus to “read the signs of the times,” as many 19th century Catholics were struggling to assimilate into the American economy. Today we, too, respond as Father McGivney did, attentive to Sacred Scripture, and to the longings of our hearts.
