To My Brother Knights and Their Families:

Many thanks to PGK Dale Edwards and everyone else who helped out on this year’s Irish Night. It was a successful event. Please see Dale’s article for further information.

At our March Business meeting we voted unanimously to pass the resolution to donate $1,500 from our Memorial Fund to help support a special retreat of members from the Newman Catholic Community, who will remember our deceased members in their prayers. In future years we anticipate having a special fund raiser to raise money to help support the Newman Catholic Community’s retreat. More than half of the new members to our council this year have come from the Newman Catholic Community.

As mentioned last month our council is conducting a Lenten food drive. I’m asking that each council member donate one can of food per day for the forty days of lent. If you can’t donate 40 cans of food, please donate what you can. If you don’t want to donate cans you can also donate cash or gift cards from a grocery store. We will collect your donations at our business meeting on April 10th. Please let me know about any of our council members who are in need. We will help our brother knights and their families first. The remainder will be given to local food banks.

Our annual Garage Sale for Charity is coming up on Saturday and Sunday, April 26th and 27th. Several Brother Knights are needed to help set up for the sale on Friday, April 25th as well as to help during the Garage Sale and cleanup on Sunday. Please contact Terry Corcoran or Steve Mills if you are able to help.

Thank you.
Go! Make a difference…
