Raymond P. Langlois Council #4961 Grand Knights Message My Brother Knights, Fall is in the air. Leaves look good in the trees but not so great on the ground. I would like to thank everyone that came out and helped out at Fr. Crowley’s Family Picnic in September. It went very well and fun was had by all. Great job to Joe Kowalik and George Loiselle for putting on a great yard sale. There was a fair amount of shoppers that stopped by. Here are some upcoming events, for October and November. October 25th is our annual Awards Dinner so please join us as we recognize 3 local organizations for service they provide to our community. We will also recognize fellow Knights. This is a great chance to get together for a fun evening as Knights of Columbus. November 8th we will be working with Boys Scouts at the Food Pantry (more info in newsletter). November 9th at 8:30 a.m. is our deceased members mass. I will see you at our next meeting on October 14th.
