Brother Knights - 
 
Another week with many events taking place in need of thanks for many hours of service:
 
First - Thanks to the Brother Knights that came out to assist with Miracle on Morton Street.  The weather was great and the food sales were awesome.  It was a great day!
 
Second - thanks to the Brother Knights that assisted with this weekend's BBQ cook (prep, cook AND sales).  Following Sunday evening Mass we sold through (the best regular BBQ numbers to date).
 
Third - thanks to the Brother Knights that helped collect funds for the final weekend of the two Military Support Projects (Front Line Faith and Trees for Troops).  A special thanks to Brother Michael Spiech for leading the initiative.  See below for totals.
  

Vivat Jesus!  Viva Cristo Rey!

Military Support Projects
Brother Knights,

Our parish is an awesome parish, as are all of you!

First, thanks to all who collected this past weekend, especially those at the 5PM Mass, dodging the rain and nasty weather.

Then thanks to all who helped with the past months collections.

This past weekend, we collected $1,782, the largest of the three months which was $4,344! That's enough for 91 mp3 players and 55 Christmas trees - our parish has enriched the lives of many military families who defend us every day.

Again thank you all for living your faith by helping others in need.

Peace,

Michael Spiech
