Brothers, Family and Supporters of Council 5959,

Congratulations to Br. Bill Wellman on being awarded the well deserved honor of being the "Knight of the Month" for April 2018. Bill is the council's community director and does a great job every week, picking up food from church and delivering it to the Somerset Food Bank Network. He also chairs two food drives per year as well as the coat drive. Thank you Brother for all you do for our community.

This is a weekend of seconds! We need your help for the second Plant Sale, and a second Special Needs Drive!
Plant Sale: Tomatoes, peppers and assorted herbs and vegetables: We need several more volunteers for May 18 delivery , May 19 and 20 sale and cleanup. Part 2 of the sale is slightly larger than the first part.
|
Special Needs Drive: Kings in Pluckemin: We also need volunteers to man the doors at This should be a better return, as there is lots more traffic this prime location and we really need to cover the full schedule to make it another winning Special Needs Drive.

The Knights of Columbus, the largest Catholic fraternal order in the world, has announced a membership initiative that allows eligible Catholic men to join the organization online. The K of C was founded in 1882 by Venerable Father Michael McGivney, a parish priest, in New Haven, Connecticut. The organization was formed to provide charitable outreach and care for the financial well-being of Catholic families, focusing on the protection of widows and orphans, and on strengthening the faith of its members. It has grown to include almost two million members worldwide.
