Subject: No Business Meeting this Week/Replaced by Spaghetti Dinner March 19 at 6:30
Brother Knights,
Just a reminder that this month’s business meeting is being replaced by the Spaghetti dinner/St. Joseph’s Table this Tuesday at 6:30 at St. Thomas Aquinas’s Social Hall. Everyone from the Parish is welcome to attend.
At the beginning of the dinner, members of the State Council will be providing several checks to the planned pregnancy group for the ultrasound machine and some extra items like a large screen TV to view the ultrasounds. This is another reason to attend the dinner.
Family Director, Brother Matt Gordon is leading the effort for the Council. As previously mentioned, he is looking for volunteers to help with setup starting at about 5:00, serving and cleanup. Food has been taken care of, but if you want to bring something it will not be turned away,
Whether you can help with the dinner or can come to participate in helping eat the spaghetti, it would be great to see all of you and your families there to support this effort.

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!
