A message from Steven Dubreuil - Grand Knight
As I was working on the newsletter for this month, I am in disbelief how quickly time goes by. I have now been your Grand Knight since July of 2022. Our council usually comes up in my conversations quite often, and I am proud to talk about our organization, to include our events, donations and our people. Our charitable actions reach both locally in our own community as well as nationally.
Examples of this include our Tootsie Roll Drive, Coats for Kids Campaign and most recently we matched a donation by our bingo players and sent $1,030 to the people of Maui devastated by the wildfires. Soon we will be working together to serve our community at our Thanksgiving Dinner. You will see updates on Thanksgiving through email and our newsletters.
In this month’s newsletter there is a page with volunteer opportunities. Please consider getting involved. Along with our monthly regular activities we also have other events that are occasionally run. Whenever you see an activity that you want to get involved in do not hesitate to contact the POC of that event. You do not need to be an officer in our organization to get involved.
In Matthew 25:34-40, Jesus praises his followers who saw people in need and responded in love.
That’s what it means to be the hands and feet of Jesus. By showing our love, compassion, and service to others, we are His hands and feet, doing His work in our everyday lives.
Vivat Jesus!

VOLUNTEER OF THE MONTH
Our Volunteer of the Month for October is
Mary Bazinet.
Mary can be found in the kitchen at every bingo night ladling out the chowder and handing out rolls and butter at our spaghetti suppers.
Mary is a kind soul who always has a smile on her face and a kind word to say.
Mary, I appreciate all you do for our Council.
Congratulations and thank you.
Steve Dubreuil, Grand Knight
