Grand Knights Message
Bale Sale
First, I would like you help with this weekend's Bake Sale fundraiser. There are three ways to participate:
|
| 1 |
|
I would like to ask you to bake, or buy baked goods and bring them to the parish foyer on Saturday.
|
|
|
|
|
If you can spare an hour or two on Saturday, please stop by the Blessed Sacrament Church Foyer between 9:30 AM and 2:00 PM to help PGK Joe Beotsch wrap the cakes.
|
|
|
|
On your way out of church, buy some great tasting treats to help our charities

50th Annual Christmas Social
Second, On Saturday, December 12th starting at 6:00 PM we will honor our wives at our 50th annual Christmas Social. We will return to our tradition of cooking and serving our wives a great meal. This event will be held at the Blessed Sacrament Parish Hall on Saturday December 12th and will start at 6:PM, after the Vigil Mass. Monitor your email inbox for the invitation via eVite, and RSVP promptly so that we have enough time to procure the provisions and plan the event. If you are a member of council 5959 in good standing and do not get an invite, please call me and let me know that you would like to join us.

A message from DD PGK Stan Serafin
|
There are three worthy programs that every Council should strongly consider participating in.
|
Coats for Kids, Blanket Drive, & Debora Hospital.
|
As you know, Coats for Kids & the Blanket Drive touch our fundamental core value of charity. The State makes it easy for the Councils to donate. We send the program chairman a check & they take care of everything else. Most Councils are already participating in these charitable programs, however, if you need information I will be glad to email it or you can locate the program chairman in the State Directory.
|
The Knights of Columbus has a relationship with Deborah Hospital. Again, most Councils are currently donating to Deborah. This hospital specializes in heart & lung operations and they give special considerations for Members of the Knights of Columbus.
|
At your next Officers' meeting please consider making these charitable programs a part of your Councils' annual contributions.
|

Annual Coat Drive Continues
In addition to the Coats for Kids program, our council will be collecting your gently used coats and donating them to local organizations that will ensure they are provided to those in need. Our coat drive will continue during November. Please drop off your donations in the Blessed Sacrament Church lobby on your way in to Mass.
|
|
Brother Bill Wellman is the chairman of this event, if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reply to this email.

Become An active Participant
|
Are you an active member, the kind that would be missed,
|
or are you just contented, that your name is on the list?
|
|
Do you attend the meetings, and mingle with the flock,
|
or do you always stay at home, and criticize and knock?
|
|
Do you work on the committees, to see there is no trick,
|
or leave the work to just a few, and talk about the clique?
|
|
So come to the meetings often as much as you can, and help with hand and heart,
|
don't be just a member, but take an active part.
|
|
And if you have just a little time, that a meeting is not for you
|
|
please, participate with us, in just one event or two!
