Our Knights of Columbus Council has worked with St. Vincent de Paul over Thanksgiving mornings to deliver cooked Thanksgiving meals to the Greenville County community in need. We are inviting you to join in this charitable community event Thanksgiving morning. We are delivering over 60 meals this year and expect the number to grow in the future.

Each year we see grandparents, parents, nieces, nephews, grandchildren, etc.  making this part of their Thanksgiving tradition with their family.

Please go here to signup. https://goo.gl/forms/cfmpOnjOHLWQ2o1q2. (Please signup by Sunday night at 8 p.m. or asap)

 
If we reach the allotted number of signups required, please still signup and we will make sure you are introduced and matched to a Knight of Columbus to experience the delivery together. 

Final details will come next week to those that are signed up to participate in this charitable community event.

Questions? Contact Grand Knight John Olson at gk.kofc9184@gmail.com.

Thank you for your time and we wish everyone a safe and Happy Thanksgiving.

A Family of Saints: The Martins of Lisieux

A Family of Saints: The Martins of Lisieux

Fr Smith’s suggested Advent reading for 2016 is Stephane Piat’s A Family of Saints: The Martins of Lisieux.  Many people are familiar with the story of St Therese of Lisieux, the Little Flower, a young Carmelite nun who died at very young age and is a Doctor of the Church for her spirituality of the “little way.”  What many people do not know about is the story of her entire family.  Her parents, Louis and Zelie Martin, were canonized this year by Pope Francis.  Learn about this incredible family that pursued holiness amidst financial chaos, frequent illness, dementia, and a family of strong personalities.  The Martin family is the proof that ordinary families living in the world can produce tremendous saints.

This book is available at St. Benedict’s Catholic Store in Greer or on their website at https://realcatholicstuff.com/products/a-family-of-saints-the-martins-of-lisieux
