Based on personal accounts written by those who witnessed the Turning Point of the American Revolution, this program offers a glimpse into the mundane details of daily life and the history-changing actions of farmers, laborers, teamsters, tradesmen, and others who answered the call to serve.

We’ll also learn about some of the local residents who saw this military campaign roll through their communities and farms.  Participants will also learn about opportunities to continue exploring history at upcoming events with Saratoga 250 and other local historical organizations.

Bishop’s Burse – November 2023

St. Edward’s Knights of Columbus hosted this year’s Bishop’s Burse on Friday November 17.  This is the third year the Knight’s held the event at St. Edward’s. The Burse is an annual event hosted by the Knights of Columbus Councils in the Albany diocese.

Each year, Councils donate money to the Bishop who uses it to support community and charitable organizations of his choice.

This year, Bishop Scharfenberger is donating all the money to the Diocese of Albany Ministry for People with Disabilities which helps those with varied, physical, developmental and emotional abilities participate fully in all aspects of Catholic life. 

Thanks to Brother Dave Paradis.
