The Knights of Columbus, Sacred Heart Assembly #2599, is the Fourth-Degree arm of the Knights of Columbus. The principle of the Fourth Degree is Patriotism, and the Assembly hosts such events as the annual flag burning and selling replacement flags, providing free meals for First Responders, cleaning the grave markers and placing flags and wreaths on the graves of veterans at Cadillac Memorial Gardens East, and donating to various veteran organizations. The Assembly is made up of Knights from St. Therese of Lisieux, St. Isidore, St. John Vianney, St. Sharbel and St. Jane Francis De Chantal.
To raise money for these endeavors, Fourth-Degree members of St. Therese will be selling lottery tickets in the Gathering Space beginning Saturday, August 5th after the 4:30pm Mass and will sell them each weekend Mass until our allotted tickets are sold. Like the St. Therese drawing in the fall, the lottery is based on the 3-Digit Daily Lottery during the month of October this year. The tickets cost $10 and the winners can win $25, $100 or $200 determined by the Michigan Daily 3 number drawn each day (except Sunday). The number drawn on Oct. 9th, Columbus Day, will earn the first-place winner $300.
Starting August 5th, purchase your tickets before or after Mass and look forward to your October winnings. Thank you.
