Get Started

The Knights of Columbus are selling bricks that will be placed along the walkways and as well in the shape of two (2) Crosses that will be placed entering the church from the back parking lot.  Not only can you help us and the church, but you have the opportunity leave an impression that will last forever.  You can have the bricks inscribed with the names of your family, an anniversary, a special event or a deceased loved one by getting a brick to commemorate their legacy.  It's also a great way for people to always see your businesses and be reminded of your support among the community.   Time is limited, spaces are filling up, don't miss your chance to get a brick and leave a legacy that will last a lifetime.  The cost is $125 for a 4x8 brick and $175 for a 8x8 brick.  Add $25 for clip art and mini replica bricks are available for an additional $35.  Samples of the bricks can be found by the Jackson Road entrance or in the back of the Church along with order forms.  For more info go to Brick Fundraiser page.

Knights and their families in Medford, N.J., have answered the call to leave no neighbor behind. “I am sure proud of my dad for being in the Knights of Columbus. It’s a good opportunity to give back all that we’ve gotten from God,” says Jude Vellaringattu. WATCH

We are looking to establish a committee with the aim of taking our Dedication Tree Lighting ceremony to a new level of family celebration next year. The tradition of our dedication trees has been well received by both the parishioners and the community at large. It has also been a good source of funding for the SML school.  

This past year, it was one of the few events that brought a sense of normalcy to our lives. Ideas that have been presented so far include: a live Nativity, caroling, food trucks, arts and crafts, pictures with Santa and live music. If you enjoy this new tradition and would like to be part of the event that puts a smile on so many faces, please consider being part of the committee. We want to involve Knights, Ladies Auxiliary, Youth Group members etc.

If you would like to be part of the committee, there will be an on-line meeting scheduled for Wednesday, January 27th at 7:00pm, please send a reply with your email to Bill Scheffold at 856-912-1301 so we can send you details.

Brothers, this event is a go, providing your use your discretion. You can stand at the door and welcome everyone to mass. It is greatly appreciated. We were at the door on EASTER and a lady passerby turned to her friend and said “those Knights are such wonderful men”! Brothers, we are noticed and the parish notices us and that is what recruits new men, so please stand at the doors and welcome people to mass, even if you don’t use a wheelchair or umbrella, it is appreciated.

We would like to recognize the Bosco family. Parents Robert and Michelle, Their daughters Annalise, Emily and Gabrielle are staples at the 9:00 AM Mass as ushers. We would like to commend them on their parenting in keeping their family attending mass despite all of the distractions that young ladies face these days. This typifies the Knights core values of Charity, Unity and Fraternity.

Tom McCay

The knight want to recognize a recent transfer from another council who has increasingly participated in most of the Knights events. He also recently stepped up to take over duties of our Bocce events, which is open to the public during the summer.. Tom shows how the power of one man among many can help accomplish great things. For this reason, we have selected Tom Mckay as Knight of the month.

Anne Weill, Roy Sanford, Enrico Benigno, Brother of Sal Benigno.  May he rest in peace.
