Student Fundraiser to Attend Canonization of Kateri Tekakwitha in Rome
Three students of the native American flute have been invited to perform at the Canonization of Kateri Tekakwitha, the first Native American Saint. The students are taught by Vince Redhouse a well-known musician and a member of the St. Pius X Knights of Columbus Co. 10762.
In order to make this happen, the students will need to raise funds to make the journey to Rome in October. The St. Pius Knights and parishioners will host a fundraising concert featuring the students and Vince Redhouse on Monday August 20, from 7 PM to 9 PM at St. Pius X Catholic Church. A suggested donation is $10 - $20 and all proceeds will go to help the students with their travel costs.
Working together. On 18 July, a request for assistance was received from Brother Karl (deployed to Afghanistan) Griffor's wife. Amy requested help from Our Lady of the Mountains Council 10799 in removing flood debris from her fence line and adjusting her fence to allow further debris from collecting at the fence line. Brother Knights and family members again stepped up on 19 Jul and rendered their support. Less than two hours later the job was done before the rains came. A thank you was extended from Amy for the assistance that she received from Brothers Rob Bridges, Deacon Bill & Jo Merritt, David Waldmann, Chuck Everding, and Tom Whipp who grabbed their rakes, hammers, pliers and wire cutters to get the job done.
Listed below are the Districts that will have the Our Lady of Guadalupe Image Icon.
Please contact your District Deputy to schedule to have the image available for your council and parish.

All the winners for the 2012 Knights of Columbus have completed the paperwork for their prize. The State Officers want to thank all the Councils [Knights] that helped make the 2012 Charity Raffle a successful event. By now, most Councils have received their checks for their local charity [charities].
If you attended the banquet at the 4th Degree Exemplification, you saw Worthy State Deputy Pat Schuller give a $1,500 check to St Vincent de Paul from the State Council. The state portion of the charity raffle sales made that donation possible. Everyone that bought or sold raffle tickets helped make that feasible. This is just one example of the Charity Raffle dollars at work at the state level.
