The CCW is now new and improved. We have formed guilds which allow ladies with similar interest to get together to work on projects and share information. The CCW will now meet as a whole only three times a year; the specific dates in October, December and April will be posted in the bulletin. The president will remain Linda Grice with Beth Morrissey as treasurer for this new year. We will no longer collect dues. Our fund raisers will pay for national dues and support worthwhile causes in our parish and community. We would like to form more guilds. If you have a special interest and would like to share it with others, please contact Linda Grice at 636-1068.

The Knights of Columbus was founded in 1882 by a 29-year-old parish priest, Father Michael J. McGivney, in the basement of St. Mary's Church in New Haven, Connecticut. Today, more than a century later, the Knights of Columbus has become the largest lay organization in the Catholic Church. The Order has been called "the strong right arm of the Church," and has been praised by popes, presidents and other world leaders, for support of the Church, programs of evangelization and Catholic education, civic involvement, and aid to those in need. 

Jim Thompson has been elected Grand Knight for Council No. 6784. Jim and his wife, Gail have relocated to Greeneville from Memphis TN upon retiring from the Navy after 38 years of service. Jim and his bride have lived all over the world and have 3 children, twin girls and a younger daughter. 

The Knights of Columbus and the Parish Council have come together on a special project to place a monument to the Unborn Child somewhere on the church grounds. The monument would be a 6-foot tall colored stone monument with flowers surrounding it and a bench or two so people can meditate or have a peaceful place to think and pray.  There will be a brick pathway leading to the monument, and the plan is to sell a brick to help defray the initial cost. The Knights of Columbus have committed to undertake the total cost of the monument and its construction. Some time in the future Knights will be asking for your help. Each brick will cost $50.00 and you may have it inscribed either in Honor of … or in Memory of ….  The Knights hope to complete this project before the end of this year. Please understand that this monument and it surroundings will be here far into the future.
