Lenten Retreat
On Palm Sunday weekend we plan on gathering again out at my place for our 2nd Annual Lenten Retreat. We will be doing a rosary, the stations, watching a video, having some spiritual discussions, attending mass and hopefully be able to get a guest speaker out. If you are interested please let me know. Below is the address and proposed schedule of events.
St. Patrick's Day Parade
We will be riding in the St. Patrick’s Day parade Saturday March 12, 2022, located downtown Houston. Knights of Columbus members in good standing that have a motorcycle are invited to join us so they can see all the fun we have as the Knights on Bikes. They do not have to be a member at the time of the ride. This is a great opportunity recruit new members and to show Galveston/ Houston that we have Catholic men dedicated to serve, protect, and defend in the spirit of patriotism, as we strive to become better individuals, husbands, fathers, son, neighbors.
If they are not a member of KonB or have not received their vest, then they can wear their council/assembly shirts to show they are KofC.
Please email me if you plan on attending as I need to provide a line up. Also send me a copy of your insurance card for your motorcycle which I have to provide the parade for each rider.
Vivat Jesus,
Jerome Wilson
