Polynesian Island Party Dinner Dance

Brothers,

Wow! What a Polynesian Island Party Dinner Dance. The Parish Center was turned into the Knights of Columbus 7109 Paradise Bar and Grill and decorated as if you were in the South Pacific. The guests loved it!

Many guests were decked out in their flowery shirts, even a few in grass skirts. Over 190 guests were in  attendance enjoying a Great Polynesian Dinner and Awesome Island Music provided by the Island Boys Band!

Brothers, it takes a very strong team to host an event of this size. It was YOU who made it happen! Yes, Brothers  You, who assisted and /or supported our event to make this our first event of the Fraternal year as so successful!

I wanted to let you know how proud I am of you and our Council and I thank you for your Dedicated and Service in the name of Charity, Unity and Fraternity.  Great Job!

Special Thanks to our Dinner Committee lead by Brian Jones, DGK, Frank Pensabene, Gene Wolanin, Dennis Burgess, Frank DiMattie, Kevin McQuade and Tim Dailey. Our Lead Chef, Frank Pensabene and his staff….Gene Wolanin, Tim Dailey, Tom Wozniak, Tom Mahoney did an outstanding job! And Dennis Burgess and Frank DiMattie leaders of our decoration committee and their Staff really out did themselves. Lastly, John Caddigan our Youth Server Coordinator! All our Ticket Salesmen.

And MOST IMPORTANTLY ALL OUR BROTHER KNIGHTS…..who helped!

It is a Great Day to be a Knight and Serve our Parish Community!

Our Council Meeting is this Thursday, October 14th at 7:30pm...more Dinner Dance details to follow.

God Bless You and Your Families,

FW: Congratulations Father Paul Clougherty

Subject: Congratulations Father Paul Clougherty

On behalf of Father Paul I want to thank all our brother knights who
attended our business meeting this week where we honored Father on his
50 year anniversary as a Parish Priest. We had over 70 in
attendance, the most I can remember at a meeting in recent years.

We are honored to have Father Paul bless us with his presence here at
Espiritu Santo. In his comments he thanked the Knights for answering
God's call for help and knows we will continue to help spead his
kingdom throughout our community. He noted how when we work Gods Plan
good things happen and he remains happy as he reflects on his service
the last 50 years.

Brothers it must be God's Plan to have our council honor one of his
Priests for 50 years service in the same year as we celebrate our
Parish's 50 year Anniversary. Please accept this as your first notice
to attend our 50 Year Anniversary Parish Clergy Appreciation Dinner
Dance on March 13. This is our chance to honor Father Paul again and
all our Priests and Religious for the service they provide to our
council, families and parish.

God Bless You Father Paul, all our Priests and Religious and

It Is A Great Day to Be A Knight!
John Papa
Grand Knight

Brothers Families and Friends

There are several opportunites to provide financial support to our
brothers and sisters in Haiti.

First: Second collections this week and next in our Parish (see notice
from the parish below)

Second: As Knights we have been requested to give what we can to the
special Supreme Haiti Relief fund via K of C Charities. As Grand
Knight I am authorizing $1 from each ticket sold at our Breakfast
tomorrow and Dinner Dance next week be designated for this special
fund. Your support of our events will help make our donation to this
fund meaningful.

God Bless
John Papa
Grand Knight (See Below)

A number of callers have called wanting to know what they can do to
help Haiti. Below is some information you can share with your
membership:

. ESCC's second collection this weekend (1/16-17) and the
following weekend (1/23-24) will be for Haiti. Checks should be made
payable to Espiritu Santo - memo should indicate: HAITI.

. All other items (food, medications, clothing, toiletries,
etc. can be donation to St. Peter Claver Catholic Church or the
Pinellas Christian Center.

Our prayers are with the people of that country and the families of
those who have lost their loved ones. God bless. - Millie
