August 2024 Knight and Family of the Month
Family of the Month: Terry and Dick Schubert
Terry, as Vice President of the Ladies Auxiliary, has been a guiding force in our parish, offering her time, talents, and leadership to countless events. Her tireless efforts have supported numerous charitable activities, and her passion for serving others shines brightly. Terry has also worked closely with Dick in organizing our highly successful Peaches and Pears fundraiser, a significant undertaking that brought the entire community together. Their teamwork and dedication helped us distribute 191 boxes, resulting in a council profit of $1,638. This fundraiser helps our council to support important charitable causes.
Dick, as the Lecturer for our council, has been an invaluable source of spiritual insight, sharing reflections that inspire and challenge us to live out our faith more fully. His leadership in organizing the Peaches and Pears fundraiser was instrumental in its success. He also cooked at the Parish Picnic, which provided the fellowship of meal to the parishioners.
Additionally, Sir Knight Dick Schubert leads the “How Can You Walk in Hope” series, offering our parishioners meaningful reflections on living with hope in challenging times. His service as a Proclaimer during Mass further exemplifies his commitment to sharing the Word of God with our community.
Together, Dick and Terry are a true example of what it means to live a life of faith and service. Their dedication to our council, parish, and community is both humbling and inspiring. It is with great gratitude that we honor them today.
Knight of the Month: Javier Popoca
Brother Javier Popoca served faithfully by his outstanding support of church activities and Knights of Columbus for the month of August 2024. He was a tremendous help with the BBQ for the church picnic in support of over 400 parishioners. After serving 3 hrs with the BBQ, he then helped another four hours with organizing and leading the Knights sponsored soccer challenge; a huge success. His dedication was evident in helping distribute hundreds of boxes of peaches and pears to our church community, one of the largest fundraisers during the year for the Council. His outgoing personality and positive demeanor made all the events he was part of an uplifting time for all.
Brother Javier, on behalf of the council, I thank you greatly for all that you do.
