Brought to you by the following sponsors:

We would also like to thank our Parish, PSF (parents of st. francis), our SAC (school advisory committee), and all of our annual members of the Knights who own businesses throughout our council. Without these supporters, we could not do everything we do in the community. If you are interested in sponsoring an event or our annual newsletter, please click here and send us a form.

Cans and Bottles
Our program manager Steve Pederson reports collections are off by about 25% please remind our donors to drink more! Also, it has been over a month since we packaged cans, Steve will be sending out an “offer” for help.
Coats for Kids
Our "Coats for Kids" cases of coats are in (and stored at Brents home) we will be distributing coats next week (October 15th through October 18th ) based on Brent’s availability; stay tuned.
The rest of October and November look less demanding, however based on what we have accomplished over the past several months you can anticipate yet another, long awaited, “Broken Spatula” drawing!
In closing, please keep the victims of Hurricane Milton and all the helpless souls exposed to the daily horror of war throughout our world in your prayers.
Hope to see you at our next meeting.
Vivat Jesus! Tom
