Game Feed Bags Nearly $3,000
Our annual Wild Game Feed Saturday, Feb. 19 netted nearly $3,000. The event drew more than 75 people to the St. Cecilia cafeteria for the dinner and silent auction.
Proceeds will help pay for the interior handicap door operator at the south entrance of the Cathedral. The money will also benefit Council 652 charities including the Bethlehem House, which serves pregnant women in need. The venison, goose and other food were excellent. Special thanks to Tom Prem, Tony Romero and all the other volunteers.
Tootsie Roll Drive Set for April
Volunteers are needed for the annual Tootsie Roll drive in April. The event will be April 8, 9 and 10. Sites will include Mutual of Omaha and ConAgra. Proceeds benefit children with disabilities. Call Tom Werner to volunteer, 556-9805.
New Leadership Program Offered for Men
St. Cecilia Cathedral is offering a Spring program of a Catholic leadership program for men of the parish. The 13-week program started Feb. 7 and will run Mondays through May 2 in the Parish Center. There is a morning session at 6 a.m. and an evening session at 6 p.m.
No problem if you can’t make all 13 Mondays.
The sessions include a 30-minute video that highlights a leadership topic. After that we break into small groups for discussion.
The program is called, That Man is You! It is aimed at helping men better understand themselves, their wives and their marriages, along with their unique role in the family and community. For more information contact Joe Saniuk, 558-8863.
Council Website Brought up to Date
Now that Steve La Greca has more time on his hands – he’s no longer Financial Secretary – he will be keeping the Council website up to date. The newsletter will be posted monthly so you will be able to read it online. There is an activity list for the year, along with photos of our events and other information. See it at www.nebraskakofc.org/kc652 Any comments or suggestions will be welcome. Contact Steve at zorba@cox.net.
Volunteers Needed for Bingo
olunteers are always needed for Bingo at St. Joe Villa. It’s the fourth Monday of every month from 7 to 8:15 p.m. Bring your kids. The residents love to see young people. Contact Norbert Pieper, 558-1564.
KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS LIFE INSURANCE
Your Knights of Columbus insurance program is second to none. Knights of Columbus life insurance represents a safety net for Catholic families that’s unsurpassed, and we’re proud of that. We’re also concerned. Why? Because there are many Knights of Columbus members who have no life insurance with us. I suspect that, for many of those members, tomorrow has become next week, next month or next year. Don’t be one of them. Don’t wait for the bell to ring. It isn’t going to.
