4th of July Parade/Fair

Tomorrow's schedule

Float prep - 8am 

Parade lineup - 9am 

Parade start - 10am

Fair food serving - 5pm -10pm

Brother Knights, tomorrow is the 4th of July. Please be at the CHurch at 8am to help get the float ready. Line up starts at 9am, with the parade starting at 10. I will be bringing a few lawn chairs for those that are riding on the float.  If you can't walk the route that is fine as we need people to ride on the float and hand the tootsie rolls out to those that are handing them out. Please remember that we don't throw the tootsie rolls from the float, we try and hand them to everyone. This is also a great opportunity to invite a prospective member to a fun event. Dads make sure to bring your kids along as they will have a great deal of fun as well. 

Tomorrow night we are serving food down at the fair in the Dishman Building. We will need at least 6 people to show up at 5pm. It would be good to have a couple more show up later for when it gets busier and to cover anyone that has to leave earlier. When you get to the fair let them know at the gate that you are working in the dishman building and they will let you in for free. If you said you would come help during our last meeting please do so.

Council Misc

Brother Knights, I spoke with Russell Rouse earlier today, he informed me that he has been suffering from Cluster Headaches. These headaches set on quickly out of nowhere and feel like sharp, intense stabs in the temple areas causing him a great deal of pain. Please pray that the almighty healer, Jesus Christ, will take away these horrible headaches and and ease the pain that they cause. 

Next item, Matt Wingo and I are going to go out to Russell's in the morning and get the float and bring it to the Hall at Holy Trinity. I would like to work on it this weekend as well so we can have it in shape for the 4th. If anyone wants to help or can help let me know and we can get a time set.   

Brothers, this weekend is a 5th Sunday weekend. Lets try to cover all the ministries that we can, as we are not scheduled please check with those that are scheduled before Mass.  

Next Friday is the 4th of July, just a quick reminder we have the parade in the morning and then we are serving food at the fair that evening.  

Thank you, brothers, for all you do.

Installation of Officer Delay

Brother Knights, I sent an email out on May 27 about installation of officers being at our June meeting. I have since gotten word from our DD Andy Garcia that we will need to move the installation to the August meeting. I am sorry for any inconvenience. Since the installation will not be June 10th, the June meeting will be a normal meeting for Knights only. Thank you all for your understanding and patience. 

Prayer Request

Hello Brothers, Diane Sharp had surgery today to remove a tumor off of her salivary gland near her left ear. It is not a simple surgery due to the nerves that are in that area. Matt says she is out of surgery with no complications, he was waiting to talk to the doctor still when i messaged him.  Please keep both Diane and Matt in your prayers, pray for peace, strength, and healing and pray that the tumor is benign.

Installation of Officers June 2025

Brother Knights, we will be holding our installation of officers at the June 10th meeting. Our DD Andy Garcia will not be able to attend our July meeting and has asked us to move it up. All of you that are elected officers please wear casual slacks or nice jeans and either your Knights polo, button up, or a nice shirt. We will have a short meeting at 7pm and then we will hold the Installation of Officers. The installation will be open to friends and family, so please invite them to come. This would also be a great time to invite any potential members. I look forward to seeing all of you there. Below is the Slate of elected officers.

Baby Bottle Blast May 2025

Brothers, this weekend is Mother's Day weekend so make sure to remember those wonderful ladies that said yes to life. Speaking of saying yes to life, we will be kicking off this year's baby bottle blast this weekend. We need someone to give a talk on Saturday night and a couple of guys to help hand out the bottles. Matt Sharp has already committed to the speech at 8 am Mass. We need someone to speak at 10:30 Mass. It would be good if we could have someone at the front and side door handing out bottles at both Masses on Sunday as well.

Prayer Request

Brother Knights, Matt Sharp spoke with me last night and his wife Diane is in need of prayers. She has a tumor on her salivary gland near her left ear, at this time they do not know if it is malignant. Please pray for peace for the whole family during this time of uncertainty, that it will be benign, and that the Great Physician our Lord, Jesus Christ, will guide the doctors in all that needs to be done. 

All praise and glory is yours, Lord our God, for you have called us to serve you in love. Bless Diane Sharp, so that she may bear this illness in union with your Son's obedient suffering. Restore her to health, and lead him/her to glory. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
