The Knights of Columbus is selling GROCERY CARDS (Co-op, Safeway/Sobeys and Superstore) next Sunday, May 14th after the 9AM 11AM Masses in the Gathering Area. The Knights of Columbus receive a commission which we then donate to charity. You will still get face value on cards you purchase. Cash or cheque only please.

The Knights of Columbus have a blue Bottle Recycling Bin outside on the North side of the Church. Proceeds from the bin go to help out many local charities. Please bring any recyclable pop cans, liquor bottles, milk cartons, etc. and the Knights will put the proceeds to good use.
Thank you for your support.
