PWID Drive @ OLMC

People With Intellectual Disabilities Drive logoBrother Knights, we need your help! This year Fry’s and Safeway have decided to no longer allow the Knights to conduct the People With Intellectual Disabilities Drive (Tootsie Roll Drives) at their locations. To make up for this, we need as many Knights as possible to help solicit funds at every weekend Mass at OLMC the weekend of November 9-10th.  Please join us for 10-15 minutes after the Mass you attend and help collect monies for a very worthy cause.  Vivat Jesus!

OLMC Golf Tournament

The 12th Annual Mt Carmel Golf Tournament will be held Saturday September 14th at Superstition Springs Golf Club in Mesa, AZ.
