Blankets for the Homeless
On Tuesday night, December 2, brother knights gathered at The Lords Church at 5th and Greenfield Streets to distribute the backpacks assembled from our Blankets for the Homeless program. In addition to providing each person with a fully stocked backpack, we also assisted the First Baptist crew in dispensing a meal of Chicken Alfredo, green beans, salad, bread and desert. It's times like these that change hearts and minds.

Knights Movie Night
The Knights of Columbus "Movie Night" program presents a free screening of Jesus Thirsts on Saturday, January 3 from 6:30 to 9:00pm in the Parish Hall.
This visually stunning film takes viewers on a global journey to uncover the transformative power of the Eucharist. Engaging in profound dialogue with prominent Catholic leaders, the film explores the biblical origins of the Eucharist and shares powerful personal stories of lives transformed by the Blessed Sacrament.
This exploration makes it unmistakably clear that the Eucharist is not merely a symbol, but is indeed Jesus Christ Himself — fervently desiring to quench our spiritual thirst with His boundless love. Inspiring insights from Scott Hahn, Chris Stefanik, Bishop Andrew Cozzens, Noelle Mering, Tim Gray, Fr. Donald Calloway, Eduardo Verastegui, Fr. Robert Spitzer, SJ, and many others.
Also watch the Knights of Columbus produced The Eucharist: Source of Our Healing and Hope either before or after Jesus Thirsts.
Please join us for a free screening on January 3 from 6:30 to 9:00pm in the Parish Hall. Admission is free. Donations are welcomed to offset the cost of refreshments.
