Hello Brother Knights,
Tom Owens will be introducing during New Business at our meeting a request to support the MA appeal. Here are the details from the Abbey.
----------------------
Tom,
It was such a pleasure to hear from you today. Your support is vital to the operations of the monastery so the monks can keep praying for you, me and the world! Thank you.
The Refectory floor is a neat project because, in addition to being a safety issue, the monastery must be cared for future generations of monks. Your idea of reaching out to your Knights of Columbus council is really smart and helpful--I hope the other members are as enthusiastic as you.
I have attached a PDF that can be forwarded. It should be coupled with the donation page on the WEBSITE. Of course, we accept good old fashion checks too. Also, people can call us (503-845-3030) and make a credit card gift over the phone.
If folks want to learn more about the monks, the video from the July 2020 St. Benedict Festival is beautiful, informative and has more video of the Refectory. This can be seen HERE at minute 29.40, although they carefully filmed so the crumbling floor would not be visible.
God be with you,
Susan
