Dominican Nuns of St Jude gets new Lawn Tractor
The Monastery of Nuns in Marbury has long been a community that our KofC Council 893 has strongly supported for many years. Their existence since 1944 depends on the help and donations from individuals and organizations. Their website says: “Our community's motto is UT OMNES UNUM SINT, "that all may be one" (John 17:21). With this intention in our hearts, we offer our lives of prayer and contemplation to God through Our Lady for all the needs of the Church and of the world.”We have been proud to do our part to help with their needs. One of those needs arose this summer when their lawn tractor died. We contacted a local company Sun South a John Deere lawn mower dealer who graciously gave us a very good deal on a new lawn tractor that fit the Monastery’s needs. We paid for, picked up and delivered the mower to a very grateful group of Sisters. We urge everyone to help the Nuns in Marbury anyway you can.

25 Years of Faithful Service
By Fr. David Carucci
By Fr. David Carucci
When George Pappas started training altar servers over twenty-five years ago the Mass may have been in English, but the servers were still “altar boys”. It is a little humbling to think that if I had been a parishioner as a child, I would have been in one of George’s first classes of altar boys. Things have changed over the years. In addition to the generations of young men trained to serve at the Altar, George can claim a generation of young ladies as faithful and dedicated as their male counterparts (sometime even more so).
