Also an FYI Knights of Columbus Council 15962 aided by the Legion of Mary Gardner council will be putting on a pancake breakfast Sunday June 8th at St. Bernard’s Parish at St. Camillus Church on Mechanic St. in Fitchburg.

The breakfast will be to raise money to help pay for a defibrillator for the church so it will be available in the event of a heart attack taking place while folks are at mass or a function.

The price is $5 and includes Pancakes and Ham and if you’re eating on site coffee & something to drink. Takeout orders are available which will include pancakes, ham, syrup and spread for those who would rather eat at home.

If you have a large Catholic family we will feed your entire family for a flat $20.

About 300 servings or 75 family servings will cover the full cost even if we don’t raise the lot however much of the cost we can defer is great.

I’ll be cooking that Sunday so I’ll be away all morning, no time for blogging for me that day.

Hope to see you there and while your there if you’re a Catholic man check out the Knights of Columbus and see if you want to be part of our acts of faith and works, and if you’re a Catholic woman check out the Legion of Mary to see if you want to be a part of all they do.

This Knights of Columbus is one of the premier Catholic fraternal and charitable organizations in the world. In its over a century of existence it has contributed a fortune for charitable causes all over the world. One of the causes most dear to the heart of the knights is are physically and mentally disabled children.

This week and weekend you will see Knights at your local mall, on street corners and in public places running our annual tootsie roll drive to help mentally disabled children. 100% of the money raised from these drives go to the cause. If you see a knight with a can out in front of your local supermarket, drop in a few cents, enjoy the tootsie roll he gives you and open and read the wrapper inside to learn about the good that small change you are parting with will do this year.

And if you are a practicing Catholic who would like to get involved with the Knights click here, you will find local counsels exist all over the country and beyond.

In addition to the people there quite a few exhibitors attended the men’s conference.

Adopt a Student helps people pay for Catholic education.

I should make it plain you don’t have to be Catholic to get that aid

Lighthouse Catholic Media Offers CD’s from great Catholic speakers to help evangelize the faith.

I have a few of these CD’s myself, they are first rate and will tell you a lot more about the actual Catholic Faith as opposed to what people say it is.

If your interest is more political then you might want to check out Catholic Citizenship

Would that Bart Stupak did.

Thomas Moore liberal Arts College in Southern NH had a booth:

Magdalen College also attended but didn’t go on Camera with us. Strangely enough The College of the Holy Cross, Assumption College and Anna Maria college, all in Worcester had no presence at all. You would think colleges in Worcester that proclaim themselves Catholic would bother to show up. Feel free to contact them and ask why.

A Vatican representative from Rome attended promoting pilgrimages to holy places. Journey of the Spirit is the web site.

This is exactly the type of woman (a faithful Italian) that my mother urged each one of her sons to marry. Alas for mom none of us did.

As a member of the Knights of Columbus I would be derelict in my duty to not give my group a plug:

There were actually three Knights booth there. I actually joined the Knights at the Men’s conference last year.

Finally you likely have heard of ETWN but you might not have heard of Catholic TV. If you haven’t Bonnie Rogers solves that problem.

And beyond that there was a dizzying array of devotional books available from many different vendors.
