Thank You to the Knights of Columbus for a donation of $460 towards the stained glass windows. This money was raised through the Knight Auction at the Parish Fish Fry.

Thank You to everyone who supports the Knights of Columbus Gift Card Program. As of June 2011 profits have already matched the entire 2010 effort. Your support is really making a difference. Council 11886 has committed to using 50% of the profit each year to support charitable deeds. The balance is used to purchase more cards to keep the program alive. $490 has been donated to the church for the stained glass window project. click here
