Knights Food Drive Helps Colchester Community

Knights Food Drive Helps Colchester Community

The men of the Knights of Columbus Cardinal Spellman Council 6107 affiliated with Guardian Angels Parish in Colchester, have completed their food drive to assist our brothers and sisters in need within the Colchester community.

The nonperishable food items were collected over the period from November 5 through the 12th and delivered by the Knights to the Colchester Food Bank the week prior to the Thanksgiving Holiday.

The Knights extend a heartfelt thank you to all of the parishioners of Guardian Angels Parish who made this donation possible by their generosity and care for others.

Truly, I say to you, whatever you did for one of these least of my brothers, you did it to Me. (Mt 25:40).
