KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS PANCAKE BREAKFAST
Sunday, September 11, 2022 9:00AM - 12:00NOON
When the Vikings and Packers kick off their 2022 NFL football season on Sunday, September 11, make sure when you settle down in your easy chair to watch the contest that you have a full belly—a belly full of pancakes, eggs, and sausages courtesy of the Farmington Knights of Columbus. How do I make this possible, you ask? Simple, the Farmington KCs will be hosting a pancake breakfast that day from 9 a.m. to noon at the Church of St. Michael, 22120 Denmark Avenue, Farmington, Minnesota!
The Knights will be serving their famous, mouth-watering pancakes, French toast, sausage links, and scrambled eggs. Coffee, juice, milk, and water will also be provided. Good Will offerings will be accepted. All proceeds will go towards local charitable efforts.
The Knights of Columbus is a Catholic fraternal non-profit charitable service organization. Funds raised by the Knights are donated to a variety of worthy causes in need of assistance.

Pilgrimage Mary
We are blessed to once again offer you an opportunity to have the statue of the Blessed Mother in your home for a week.

Many parishioners have prayed the rosary as a family, some have gathered with friends. The statue is available for pick up in the Chapel Sacristy on Sunday morning beginning at 9:00am, it should be returned to the Chapel Sacristy on the following Sunday before the start of the 8:00am Mass.
