Special Night for the Knights

Jerry Trumpey District Deputy for the Knights of Columbus presented Grand Knight William Malarick with the Star Council Award for 2010-2011. On that same afternoon our Chaplain and Pastor Rev. André-Joseph LaCasse, O.P. at St. Gertrude Parish made his 4th Degree in our Hall in a special Exemplification for clergy. It was a truly beautiful and moving ceremony.

Please join Fr. Ezra, the Knights of Columbus Elder Council and your fellow St. Gertrude parishioners on May 26th at 9:00 am to pray the Rosary in front of the Sharonville abortion mill. We have had a loyal and faithful Pro-Life group each 4th Saturday – but there is always room for more. Our Bishop has asked us to pray and sacrifice; this is a great way to do both for the important cause of protecting the unborn.
