On Sunday, February 5th, 2023, Father Vasyl Tymishak of St. Athanasius Parish in Regina along with brother Knights from Bishop Budka Council 5914 and Monsignor Gerein Council 9859 presented over $10,000 in cheques from the Sask Knights of Columbus Charitable Foundation and local Councils to displaced Ukrainian families living in and around Regina.

The families were very grateful to the Knights of Columbus. Mass [Divine Liturgy] was celebrated with a formal presentation afterwards.

 

Including the families and the presentations with the celebration of Sunday mass is an excellent way to welcome our new residents and truly exemplify the lesson of Charity. We are pleased and proud to be a part.
Thank you,
Harvey Granatier
President Sask K of C Charitable Foundation
