a breakfast taco sale every month.
We
prepare between 350 and 450 breakfast tacos on the second Sunday of every month except in May the taco sale is held on the first Sunday. We sell the tacos after all Masses on Sunday.

Insurance Information
|
Since its
addition to the Order’s product portfolio in 2000, long-term
care insurance has provided us with an excellent opportunity
to further serve Knights and their families. And for our
long-term care clients in the United States, a KofC Care
policy brings added value. That added value is in the form
of a service called “Provider Pathway,” a program offering
access to a network of long-term care providers at
discounted rates. The network covers: home health care,
personal emergency response systems, adult day care,
assisted living, skilled nursing facilities and durable
medical equipment. Eligibility for participation in this
program is open to Knights of Columbus Long Term Care
Insurance policyholders, their spouses, dependent children,
parents and parents-in-law. All providers are fully
credentialed and meet state licensing requirements. |
 |
If you are not currently an LTC policyholder and you would
like more information on how you can avail yourself of this
benefit, give me a call.
Our Council Insurance Agent is Robert Johnson. You can
email him at
