Good-Day Sarah,

Our Council have sent a cheque of $500.00 to Special Olympics PEI. We held a BBQ at the Giant Tiger store on a Saturday, 16th Sep. The store manager, Dave Bryanton was very generous in supplying everything, the food and propane free of charge.

We had Paul Phillips help out this year. He stayed the whole day with the Knights selling hot dogs, which was great! Unfortunately we were only able to do one BBQ this year, with everyone so busy. We will try to have more next year.

We are truly thankful that these men have chosen to become members of the Knights of Columbus and we look forward to celebrating with them in fellowship and friendship!

PEI’s Mention in October’s Columbia Magazine

Clearing Ray’s Way at Our Lady of Hope

Check out my submission to the Columbia Magazine.

George Deviat
DD District #4/GK TP Butler Council

Dear Mr. Deviat:

Thank you for sending us your news. We have included a report AND/OR photo of the project in the October update of the Knights in Action web page, posted at http://www.kofc.org/knightsinaction. The report will appear online only; it will be visible on the Knights in Action homepage for approximately on month, and filed for publication in the magazine at a later date. Due to the volume of reports received and the limited number of pages available to us monthly in the print edition of the magazine, it will likely be several months before it appears in print. Thanks again.

Best wishes,

Anna Bninski
Associate Editor, Columbia

Honour Guard at Fr. Bolger’s Funeral

4th Degree Knights of Columbus formed an Honour Guard for the funeral Mass for Fr. Francis Bolger on Tuesday, October 3.

The largely attended funeral was a very fitting tribute to a beloved priest who gave himself in service to his Church, his Province and his Country.

We pray for the repose of his soul.

Bishop Grecco offers prayers at the graveside.
