Safety First! The Knights seem to be good at replacing light bulbs. They are also saving lives, please contact Grand Knight, Steve Herffern for more info.

Are you a Catholic man 18 or over, committed to saving the lives of unborn children and changing the lives of mothers and fathers?

After 8 years of shared service between Stuart and Creston, the LC Clinic needs to move their current ultrasound unit to Stuart and get a spiffy new one for Creston. The cost of this new, vastly improved unit is roughly the same as the one our KC council acquired for LC Clinic in 2014.

We are looking for a chairman to head up this effort. You’ll have help. I can speak from personal experience that your efforts will be rewarding and necessary for the families in southwest Iowa. If you are interested, please call Steve Heffern at 515-493-6110. If you aren’t a Knight, this bulletin article might be the Holy Spirit calling you to our order.

If you are interested in donating, please write KC LC Project on an envelope and drop it in the collection basket at Mass. Or send a donation to KC LC Project, 406 W. Clark St, Creston, IA 50801. The Knights thank you. The LC Clinic (iowalcclinic.org) thanks you. And babies yet to be born and their families thank you.

Calling all Cookie Bakers at St. Edwards! We have been asked to supply 6 dozen cookies for this year's Candle Lighting Service at the Afton United Methodist church on Sunday, Dec. 18th at 5 PM. Please get in touch with Georgia Pettit if you can help out.
