Board Chairman Shann Patton communicated the importance of this Ultrasound Machine while thanking the Knights of Columbus for their generosity and commitment to Protecting the Unborn. Dr. William (Rusty) Chavey along with Dr. Phil Fleming shared with those in attendance just how crucial the ultrasound machine has become, stating an abortion minded woman will often seek help from their Doctor first. This gives us the opportunity to not only allow them to see their unborn child but also provide them with their health care needs, and counseling.
Deacon Wayne Slomiany concluded the ceremony by providing us with an inspirational and memorable closing prayer. Many thanks to all who participated and donated that may not be mentioned, please know that without all of you none of this would be possible. And last but far from least, let us not forget Supreme Council Knights of Columbus for their matching funds program which has surpassed its original goal of 1,000 Life Saving Ultrasound Machines Order wide.
