Brother Knights and Friends of Council 3738, Please support the Knights of Columbus during its annual
Tootsie Roll Drive
Sept 13-14 and Sept 19-20, 2008
Many thanks for your generous response to my call a few weeks ago for volunteers for the upcoming MR/LD Drive. More than 30 Knights and several friends have volunteered so far.
We are collecting for the intellectually disabled and I ask those of you who have yet to volunteer to please consider doing so. We are in particular need of volunteers for:
- On Saturday, September 13th, after evening masses at St. Mary of Gostyn and Notre Dame.
- On Sunday, September 14th, after all masses at Notre Dame and after later masses at the other parishes.
- On Friday, September 19th, at the Downers Grove Main Street train station for morning rush hour, at the Jewel at 63rd and Main all day, and at the intersections of Ogden and Main as well as Ogden and Cass for the evening rush hours.
- On Saturday, September 20th, at the Jewel at 63rd and Main all day as well as at the intersections of Ogden and Main and Ogden and Cass.
Just a few minutes volunteering after one of the masses at our parishes can yield large rewards for the drive. Work during the Friday rush hours is also particularly profitable for the drive.
To volunteer, please write (c.grammich@comcast.net) or call (1-630-541-5306) any time or sign up at the hall.
May God continue to bless you in your generosity.
Cliff Grammich Jr.
MR/LD Chairman

The Knights of Columbus is the world's largest Catholic
family fraternal service organization with 1.7 million
members in 13000 councils. It provides members and their families with
volunteer opportunities in service to the Catholic Church,
their communities, families and young people. The Knights was formed to render financial aid to members and their families. Mutual aid and assistance are offered to sick, disabled and needy members and their families. Social and intellectual fellowship is promoted among members and their families through educational, charitable, religious, social welfare, war relief and public relief works.
The history of the Order shows how the foresight of Father Michael J. McGivney, whose cause for sainthood is being investigated by the Vatican, brought about what has become the world's foremost Catholic fraternal benefit society. The Order has helped families obtain economic security and stability through its life insurance, annuity and long-term care programs, and has contributed time and energy worldwide to service in communities.
The Knights of Columbus St. John Council is located one half block north of the BN train tracks in Westmont at 25 N. Cass ave. The Grand Knight for 2006-2007 is Sir Knight Mark Rough. You can contact the Knights Hall
by phone at 630-969-3738 or via email: Grand Knight@kofc3738.org.
2nd Tues of each month, 7:30pm at the KC Hall, 25 N. Cass in Westmont.
