Knights’ Korner – September 28, 2008

Why I Became a Knight: 

I’ve been a Knight since 1989. In that time I’ve participated in fundraisers, Tootsie Roll drives, pasta dinners and fish fries, and assisted at the Special Olympics. The reason I joined was to try and get to know my fellow parishioners, as well as my parish, a little better. That goal was accomplished. Many of those people in my original Council that I worked with became good friends, and they still are, even though we are miles away. Regardless of how busy I was at work, there was always someone who could convince me to spend a couple of hours helping at an event. And the more time and effort that I donated, the more I got back in personal satisfaction and knowing I was helping others. The Council at St. Elizabeth Seton is active and dynamic and attended by men doing what has to be done; and having fun doing it. See if you can join us on our journey. (Vince Nirtaut)
