Dear Parishioners,
As you may know, the Knights of Columbus hold a monthly breakfast for the Parish in Murray Hall following the 7:30 AM & 9:00 AM Masses. What you may not be aware of is that the Knights sponsor the breakfast as a service to the Parish, without financial support from the Parish.
The breakfasts are funded solely by the donations received during each seating and one-half of the 50/50 unless the winnings are donated back to the Knights. Although attendance at the breakfasts has increased over the last few years, donations have remained the same. Thus, we are finding it increasingly difficult to provide a wide variety of foods featured each month.
This being said, we are going to begin charging a nominal fee for breakfast. The new pricing will be:
Children 5 years of age and under: free
6 to 9 years of age: $5 per person
10 years and old: $8 per person
This policy will go into effect at our November breakfast. Diners will still have the opportunity to return for seconds which is something restaurants do not offer their patrons. The Knights will continue to provide an extensive array of dishes, and suggestions for future breakfasts are welcome We regret that we have to move in this direction but hope you will still understand that we have no other choice if monthly breakfasts are to continue to be a staple of the parish.
We look forward to seeing you at the next breakfast. Vivat Jesus, Al Germaine – Grand Knight Council 14675
