meetingnoticeJust a reminder to all of the Brother Knights that there will be a very important Business Meeting on Wednesday, March 2nd starting at 7PM in the St. Pius X Social Hall. ALL Brother Knights are expected and encouraged to attend.

As was discussed at last month’s meeting, we will no longer be having a meal prior or following the meeting. Please plan accordingly.

We have A LOT to discuss, as this will be a very busy month:

  • We are hosting a Vatican Exhibit of Eucharistic Miracles on March 5 and 6
  • We are hosting our monthly Charity Family Breakfast on March 13
  • We are holding our annual Drive to Help the Mentally Impaired (Tootsie Roll Drive) on March 18-20

We are discussing the results of our previous events. There may even be a surprise or two at the meeting…

With all of this activity, we need ALL HANDS ON DECK! Please attend this very important meeting this Wednesday. Hope to see you all there!

BUSINESS MEETING – Wed, Dec 2, 2015 (DINNER PRIOR at 6:30PM)

My Brother Knights,

VIVAT JESUS!

This is just a reminder that there will be a Regular Business Meeting on Wednesday, December 2, 2015 starting at 7PM. It will be held at the St. Pius X Social Hall. NOTE – DINNER WILL BE BEFORE THE MEETING AT 6:30PM!!!

Also, if you sold your tickets to the CHRISTmas Concert (Unspoken Concert Poster), please bring it to the meeting. You will also be able to purchase tickets at that time as well! We need everyone’s help to make this a success!

My wife, Jennifer, also wanted to ask all of you if you could bring 3 dozen cookies to the CHRISTmas Concert. She’s talked to many of the ladies, but I know a lot of you are great cooks, so as a family, we ALL can participate in this way.

We hope that you can join us!

Finally, since I will be unable to attend tonight’s meeting due to a work commitment, on behalf of my family, I would like to wish all of you a very Merry and Blessed CHRISTmas and a prosperous New Year!

Fraternally,

Ray Bilyk, FDD, PGK, PFN
