On Saturday, September 22, the Saint Edwards Knights of Columbus Council held a penalty kick soccer competition to determine our region’s representatives.  Forty-three boys and girls between the ages of 9 and 14 kicked over 600 penalty kicks!   In the end, we were able to select 6 boys and 4 girls to represent Saint Edwards at the state level at West Point in early November.   Well done to all the participants and congratulations to those who will be advancing!   — Grand Knight John Ward

2018 Spaghetti Dinner a Success!

[Best_Wordpress_Gallery id=”17″ gal_title=”2018 Spaghetti Dinner”]

Thank you for all your help and support for the Spaghetti Dinner fundraiser – according to the final count, this event netted $1848.65. We had a lot of fun in the effort.

The move of this event to Saturday night was a key in the success for this year. It is estimated that we spent about 160 man-hours of efforts.  In addition to the income, we provided a large amount of food to three different organizations and a significant amount of bread to the religious education students who were studying the Eucharist. We were fortunate enough to share our table with St Edward’s Spanish community after the 6:30 Mass let out.  We had a great time as they brought in some enchiladas and a birthday cake for a youngster.

A special thanks, goes out to Debby Galluppi who was very instrumental in getting a large amount of donations from local businesses – that effort directly increased the profit for this event. Another special thanks goes to the Youth ministry support lead by John Leirey. There efforts were extremely beneficial.
