Grand Knights Message
My Brother Knights,
Fall is in the air. Leaves
look good in the trees but
not so great on the
ground. I would like to
thank everyone that came
out and helped out at Fr.
Crowley’s Family Picnic in
September. It went very
well and fun was had by
all. Great job to Joe Kowalik and George Loiselle
for putting on a great yard
sale. There was a fair
amount of shoppers that
stopped by.
Here are some upcoming
events, for October and
November. October 25th
is our annual Awards Dinner so please join us as we
recognize 3 local organizations for service they provide to our community.
We will also recognize fellow Knights. This is a
great chance to get together for a fun evening as
Knights of Columbus.
November 8th we will be
working with Boys Scouts
at the Food Pantry (more
info in newsletter). November 9th at 8:30 a.m. is
our deceased members
mass. I will see you at our
next meeting on October
14th.
God Bless
Yours Faithfully
