2024 Vocations Fundraiser
Welcome to our fourth annual Council’s Vocations virtual fundraiser. This fundraiser is scheduled to conclude on Monday, October 21, 2024. Thanks to our generous donors, we are offering the largest number of silent auction and raffle items ever!
The Council will be donating $2,000 to each of three Seminarians to help defray the cost of their seminary education, thus our fundraising goal is $6,000.

You can donate online, by cash or by check. To make a donation online, click on the Donate Online button to the right. |
God our Father, we thank you for calling men and women to serve in your Son's Kingdom as priests, deacons, and consecrated persons. Send your Holy Spirit to help others to respond generously and courageously to your call. May our community of faith support vocations of sacrificial love in our youth and young adults.

Knight of the Month for August: Bernardo Mercado
New Knight Bernardo Mercado has been stepping up and getting involved in our events. He volunteered as a reader during the Holy Hour for St Joseph the Worker back in April, right after he became a Knight in February. He participated at the Sharing Center during the July and August events (he brought his son to the July event). He also served at the Parish Pancake Breakfast in August. If you would like to nominate a Knight of the month, submit a Knight of the Month Nomination form. |
Family of the Month for August: Dominick and Patricia Fiorentino Family
The Fiorentino family are long time members of Saint Mary Magdalen Parish. Dominick has been a Knight for 37 years! He and his wife have been involved in various ministries at the parish. Patricia has even been a cantor. Dominick has most recently joined the Adult Choir after pivoting away from the position of chairman for the Tootsie Roll Drive. He is regularly involved with many serving events, such as the annual fish fry and other Knights sponsored events. We are grateful and blessed by their service and commitment! We applaud them for their strong example they set for all families in our community! If you would like to nominate a Family of the Month, submit a Family of the Month Nomination form.
