I did confirm our Winter Celebration date with Ildiko to be on Saturday 1/18/25 instead of 1/11/25 in order to maneuver around the big Midyear meeting and make sure that we are able to work and accommodate all who are able to attend. Details (alcohol, adults only, Cornish game hen for dinner) will remain the same and from here, we should be able to start getting a flyer going / reaching out to needed parties to get things in order.
That's all for now. Hope to see you on Sunday morning. All my best! 🙂

What are the Knights of Columbus?

The Knights of Columbus is a Catholic men’s fraternal benefit society that was formed to render financial aid to members and their families. Mutual aid and assistance are offered to sick, disabled and needy members and their families. Social and intellectual fellowship is promoted among members and their families through educational, charitable, religious, social welfare, war relief and public relief works. Imagine being part of an organization that fills your heart and your mind with the joy of giving to others and the feeling that comes with making a difference. Knights are Catholic men, 18 years of age and older, who are committed to making their community a better place, while supporting their Church. Being a Knight is more than camaraderie; it is being involved with your community; it is supporting your local Catholic Church, while enhancing your own faith; it is about protecting and enhancing your family life. Please contact us for more information about becoming a Knight!
