Additional thoughts

Brother Knights,

 

I am trying to organize a table of 8 to support the Palmetto Pregnancy Center of Rock Hill fundraiser.  I believe that this puts into practice our goal of eliminating abortions and providing support for the parents.  I received the following message from the Center Director:

 

"I wanted to personally invite The Knights of Columbus to the Palmetto Pregnancy Centers Annual Fundraising Banquet.  The Palmetto Pregnancy Center is an amazing organization that provides services to women, men and families in York County and is able to do so based on the contributions and support of organizations like yours.  We would be honored if you would attend our event and/or sponsor a table by filling it with 8 people who would be interested in partnering with us financially.  Our focus this year is on men and marriage.  We have started a men's coaching program and realize the important role a man and marriage play in the decision for a woman to choose to parent her baby.  If you cannot attend the event but would like a tour of our facility give us a call at 803-329-2524 to make an appointment.  If you cannot attend but would like to help us reach our goal of $200,000, you can make a donation here: http://www.palmettopregnancycenter.com/ or mail a donation to Palmetto Pregnancy Center 828 Lucas Street Rock Hill, SC 29732.  I hope to hear from you soon to reserve a place for you at our banquet.  We covet your prayers always".

 

The 2016 Fundraising Banquet is May 5

6:00PM - 8:00PM, doors open at 5:30

First Baptist Church,481 Hood Center Drive, Rock Hill, SC  29732

 

Contact Ray Howard at 803-325-1086 if you want to attend with Jan and me.

 

In addition, the Knights will be hosting the Silver Rose program this coming Tuesday at 7:00PM in the St. Anne Church.  The Icon and program has been coming to us annually for the last few years and shows our commitment to Our Lady of Guadalupe. The Silver Rose begins its path each year in Canada and ends its journey in Mexico on the feast day of Our Lady of Guadalupe.   I hope you and your family can attend this truly amazing event.

Calling All Brothers, We need your help.

Father Fabio has offered the Knights a room in Faber Hall for us to hold our meetings and ceremonials. Currently the room is being used as a library and this is where you come in. 

We need help to move all the books and book racks out of the room before we can begin to upgrade and make the room ours.  

A work day to get this accomplished is Friday April 29, 2016 at 9 AM. Please come and help us get job accomplished. 

If you are available for only an hour or all day we can use you. Please RSVP by email or call me at 703-626-5035 if you will be able to assist.

We will have refreshments there for all workers.

Thank you for your assistance.
