Grand Knight's Message

reader reader:

On Sunday, February 24th we will be helping our most needy veterans to the Holy Eucharist at the VA Facility in Lyons, (click for directions), we'd like to ask as many of you as possible help to get to and attend mass with them. This is a wonderful ministry and an important one for our council. Patriotism is the principal of the 4th degree, but we need not be a member of the Patriotic degree to be patriotic. Thank you.
It is confirmed! We are having a cookie, cupcake and muffin sale this weekend, March 23 and 24th (Saturday 5 PM and Sunday all Masses). It has been our experience that smaller items sell the best, and people will buy more if in smaller portions. I would like to ask you and your family to have some fun, whip up some cookie dough, cupcake batter and/or muffin mix and bake a few batches of any or all. Bring your baked goods into the Church Lobby after the 9 AM Mass until about 11 AM, or the evening before the 5 PM Mass, we will accept the items anytime during Masses on Sunday. We will wrap and price the goods, and then sell them after all weekend masses!


Our Blood Drive is coming up next Sunday March 3rd, please click here to register and show your sympathy for our neighbors in need of our help!

This year’s guest speaker will be Rev. Fr Timothy Christy, Vicar General of Metuchen Diocese. Mark your calendars to plan to attend this wonderful annual event with your family and friends. Come to the 9 AM Mass, listen to a different perspective on the Gospel, and follow Father Christy downstairs for a great breakfast! Help us honor those that have provided outstanding service to our Council, Parish and Community!

Tickets are $10 per person, $5 age 6-12, under 6 free. It is a traditional American breakfast prepared by some of our best chefs. This is usually a full house event and tickets are limited, so please purchase your tickets early to avoid being disappointed.
