St. Francis Xavier Council
Brother
Edwin D’Cruz
St. Francis Xavier Council 12067 had an
interesting, pleasant and an enjoyable evening
at its second Fraternal Activity Night (FAN)
of the fraternal year on Friday, January 24
in the parish hall.
The event which was
the first of its kind
in the council’s 16
plus year history was
attended by over 72
knights. This event,
which was a
combination of a
business presentation
by knights who own
or work for a company
(real estate,
consulting, leisure
travel, guitar learning, mortgage specialist,
lawyer for wills/estates, wood-work and several
others) were given the opportunity to speak about
their business and to enlighten the members.
They were also provided with booths.
Bro. Alan Pires, Fraternal Advisor
and his “Friday Night Basement
Band” jammed during the evening
entertaining the knights with some
great music.
A number of knights also sang along with the
Friday Night Basement Band.
Fr. Susairaj Savarimuthu, Associate Pastor who
graced the occasion
and is very supportive
of the knights said
the grace before all
enjoyed the pot roast
beef meal prepared
by Florence and PGK
Vivian Pereira who
is also the council’s
Lecturer.
During the evening
the knights had
the opportunity
to network, visit the booths and play a number
of games.
The event was chaired by PGK ValensAlmeida
and was ably supported by his committee members.
Our grateful thanks to all of the above, brother
knights and committee members who worked hard
to make the FAN event a successful one. Last but not
least, thank-you to all the knights who attended the
FAN, as without their presence the event would not
be successful.
