State Convention Welcome Party Brother Knights, The
party at Discovery Green is going to be a big blowout! Its only
$5.00 per person and we are having international food catered in.
There will be food treats from countries all over the globe. There
will be Adult beverages and soft drinks, Entertainment acts, Dancing on
a dance floor, and all kinds of music. All it takes is your K of C
membership card and $5.00 to get in and enjoy the fun. You will
get to meet Knights from all over the State and our Archdiocese.
You don't have to be attending the State Convention to join in on the
fun at the Welcome Party. The worst case scenario is you can
always wonder over to Minute Maid Park and watch the Astros at the
Catholic Family Day at the Ballpark if you decide the free food and
drink is not to your liking.
A perfect day would be to play in the State Convention golf tournament
in the morning and celebrate your team's win at the Welcome Party that
night. See you there.  Ron Frerich District Deputy |

| Requesting Funds for Eagle Project REMINDER BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA To whom it may concern: My
name is Luis Fernando Sanchez. I live in Richmond, TX and attend
Travis High School. I began my scouting adventure at age 6 with
the Cub Scouts, and at 10 moved up to Boy Scouts. I am now a Life
Scout with Troop 1002 in Richmond, Texas having completed 33 merit
badges, held several positions of responsibilities, including Senior
Patrol Leader, and been very active with the growth of our troop and its
activities. My long journey is now at the point where I am
working toward earning the highest and most honored rank in Scouting,
that of Eagle Scout. To
earn the Eagle rank I must plan, develop, and provide leadership to
others in a service project helpful to the community. For my Eagle
Scout Project, I have chosen to help Sacred Heart Catholic Church in
Richmond Texas. The Church is in need of an outside area where
parishioners can pray and mediate while outside, a Prayer Garden between
the Church and the Family Life Center next to the center where there is
currently of statue of Jesus will be constructed. The Prayer
Garden will be in the shape of a half circle with two benches on each
side will be placed allowing people to sit and pray. The Garden
will be dedicated in memory of the unborn babies It
is a big project that will require many hours of labor and
approximately $3000 in materials. As part of my project, I am
required to raise funds for the materials necessary for the construction
of this project. Any financial assistance you can offer to help
me achieve my goal of completing this project will be greatly
appreciated. No amount is too small, and in the unlikely event any
funds remain after the project is finished, they will go directly to
the church. I have set up a GoFundMe account so donations can be made online using the following web address https://www.gofundme.com/luis-f-boy-scout-eagle-project.
If you prefer to mail a check, please make check payable to Luis
Sanchez with Eagle Scout Project on the Memo Line. As always,
thank you for your time and consideration. Please share with
anyone that might also be interested in the project. The mailing address is: Luis Sanchez 20034 Juniper Chase Trail Richmond TX, 77407 Yours in Scouting, Luis Fernando Sanchez Troop 1002 Brazos District Sam Houston Area Council 281-703-2815 |
