Special thanks to Mrs. Helen Buchanan for her organization and to all the kids that participated. They are all great kids and we were proud to give them the opportunity to participate.

The Knights of Columbus replaced the broken ice machine in the gym lobby consession stand with a new one. It was recently put into action at the Ladies Auxilliary annual pancake breakfast on Sunday, January 20th.

When people ask me why I became a Knight, my answer is always around our events that generate money for our local charities and the fact that we give away 100% of what we collect. There are obviously other reasons and I had to share this reason / video with you......

Folks stopped by after mass on November 11 to enjoy free doughnuts, coffee and milk, sponsored by the Knights of Columbus. Thanks to all that stopped by. Donut Sunday is held the second Sunday of each month after the 7, 9, and 11AM masses.


Good crowd after the 9AM mass

Fr. Pastorius blesses the Knights of Columbus memorial to the unborn on Saturday, October 6th. The memorial was originally set up at Kennedy High School. After Kennedy closed down, the Knights moved the memorial to St. Joseph's. The re-dedication and blessing service followed 8:30 AM mass. Karen Nolkemper,  Archdiocesan Respect Life Apostolate Director, said a few words, followed by Fr. Tom's blessing. Thanks to all who made this possible.
