St. Francis of Assisi Council #2617 - Yearly Activities
|
|
All men in our Parish, 18 and over, are invited
to join us in continuing to serve our CHURCH, our CHARITIES, our
COMMUNITY, our FAMILIES and our YOUTH. We conduct these
membership drives because we need new members to help us to
continue the work we set for ourselves as listed below. We
would like to think that there may be something of interest to
you, in fact we welcome any new interest you might want to bring
to the council. We invite you to join and work with us. |
