On May 16th, Swartz Creek Council 6694 hosted SOS: Support Our Sisters, an initiative of the Knights of Columbus RSVP Program. The fundraising dinner was held to support novices and postulants from two religious communities as they continue their formation. More than 150 parishioners attended and enjoyed the company of several sisters, who graciously shared information about their communities and their personal journeys of discernment. It was a faith‑filled and fruitful evening, made possible through the generous time and talents of the many parishioners and brother Knights who assisted in planning and carrying out the event.
