Light Up for Christ! – Tree Lighting Ceremony

This Tuesday, December 9, is the Light up for Christ tree lighting ceremony. Knights around the world gather as part of the Keep Christ in Christmas initiative by lighting up their parish’s official Christmas Trees. Our celebration will start at 7:30pm. We will have refreshments, Christmas carols, coloring activities for the kids and fellowship as we kick off this Advent season. The tree lighting ceremony will start just before 8pm. We will pray, sing and bless this year’s tree and Nativity scene.

We are asking Knights and their families to please come and celebrate with us and to bring a baked good treat to share. We will be setting up at 6:30pm. See you there! Invite someone!

Thank you all for a successful Golf Tournament!

The OLMC Knights of Columbus would like to thank all of those involved, in this year’s event, for making it such a huge success. This year’s tournament far surpassed our prior events, for helping raise funds to benefit our sponsored Seminarians (to include our new Priest, Father Scott Sperry, and Seminarian, Anthony Dang) along with other charitable activities.  A complete list of tournament sponsors is available here. Please remember them for your business needs.  Finally,  we would not be a success without the participation of our golfers.  Thank you again.
