Volunteers Needed April 30 – May 1 St. James Rosary Weekend

Volunteers Needed April 30 – May 1 St. James Rosary Weekend

The St. James Pastor has requested that the Knights of Columbus recite a rosary prior to each of the masses on the weekend of April 30 – May 1. St. James has six masses that weekend.  Only 5 people have volunteered so far.  Even if you are not St. James parishioner, please consider signing up.  At a  minimum, we need 2 council members for each of the masses. Ideally, we should have 5 people at each mass so everyone can take one decade. Can we can get brother knights to commit to saying one decade of the rosary at each mass?  Please sign up here, individually or with your family.
