Thank you!

Beginning on February 26th and continuing until Easter, the Knights of Columbus will be collecting nonperishable foods to be donated to The Cornerstone Foundation in Rockville. This is a way to help people in our local community. There will be a box in the vestibule for the collection. Each year we have met and surpassed our goal and the foundation has been so very grateful.
