A big thank you to all who came out for the Knights of
Columbus Open House. If you are interested in joining
the St. Charles Knights of Columbus Council but were
unable to attend the open house, please contact Tom
Armstrong ([email protected] ) or
Father Janoch for more information. Still on the fence
abouo joining the Knights of Columbus? Do you think
you don’t have enough time or that the crazy hectic
family schedule does not allow for it? Take it from a
father of three angels under the age of six, if I have the
time, you probably have the time to help your parish
family and community by joining. Many of our
community events include our families. My children
marched in the 4th of July parade as well as passed out
empty baby bottles for the Womankind Maternal and
Prenatal Care Center fundraiser. What better way is there
for a father to teach Catholic values to his children by
participating in volunteer work and including them?
Don’t forget to turn in your Football Frenzy tickets to the
Parish Office by Monday, October 19th.
