Anniversary Social

On January 1, 2010, Solidarity Council #55 was chartered.  Actually this was the re-chartering of an old Council that had become dormant - hence the low council #.

We are planning a catered social in late January and are looking for members, or potential members to help with this.  Contact the Recorder or any officer if you would like to help

Passing of a fellow Knight

I received the news today of the passing of Willard Reynolds.

Willard was our honored Inside Guard for many years and an active member of Council 55. Many times he would be collecting tickets at various events when he was no longer able to help with more strenuous activities, and was always at our quarterly and Memorial Masses.

Here is information on the services:

Because the calling hours are Thursday night, our Grand Knight has asked all who can, be present.

Our regular meeting might start a few minutes late.

A call has gone out to the 4th degree, if you have not been notified, please contact Armand Roy armandroy047@gmail.com

Two Hearts annual dinner will be March 31.  This conflicts with the McGivney dinner which is also March 31.  More information to follow.

The annual parish men's retreat is March 8 - 10.  More information in the bulletin.

Nothing certain but change

Just as we were celebrating Father Carlos' 30th anniversary of Ordination, we have to say goodbye.  There was a going away celebration on February 16th at St Peter/St Francis School.

Now we await the arrival of our newest priest - Father Maricio Garlvis.

Please welcome him to our Parish when he arrives.

Pancake Breakfast

Our Pancake Breakfast will be on Sunday, April 11 at St Peter Hall.

Tickets will be sent out to all members and will be on sale the prior 2 weeks after all the Masses.

Please save some time to assist in selling.  We need 3 people per each Mass to make this happen.
