It's that time of year again friends. The Knights of Columbus Annual Tootsie Roll Drive will run from now until October 25th. All proceeds go towards helping children and adults with disabilities in our communities. We appreciate all who donated last year! You were all so very generous and as a result The Foxboro-Sharon Council was the top fundraiser in the State of MA for this Charity Drive. We hope to do it again and make a difference for those in need in our communities. No amount is too small. If you are able to, please consider donating at the link below, or through the QR Code. givebutter.com/FoxboroTootsieRoll

Pilgrimage to Blessed Michael McGivney Pilgrimage Center
In May 2022, many brothers made a pilgrimage to the Blessed Michael McGivney Pilgrimage Center. We also visited St Mary’s in New Haven, CT, where the Knights of Columbus was founded.
We had a tour of the museum and learned the history of the Knights of Columbus, as well as the history of Blessed Michael McGivney.
After the guided Tour of the Museum we had a Mass celebrated by Fr Matt Wescott, where Blessed Michael McGivney is currently resting. As well as lunch (fantastic pizza) with members of Council 1.
