Several members of Council 11369 have been busy the last few months, helping the Society of St Paul in Canfield move its bookstore from Boardman Township to the Society’s location in Ellsworth Township.

There was the hauling of inventory down Rt 224, and the cleaning, painting, and new lighting in the store’s former location.

What has become of this location is a beautiful retail setting, with books, CDs, DVDs, devotional materials, rosaries, medals, Bibles and much more.

Knights members participated in the blessing by Youngstown Bishop David Bonnar of the new store (see above photo) on August 20, with the doors swinging open on August 22.

Here are the summertime store hours:

Monday-Friday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Saturday 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Sunday 9 to 12noon, before and and after the 10 a.m.

Council 11369 Knights with their wives and even some other family members made it 30 people attending the annual picnic in the beautiful Chestnut Hill Pavilion in Mill Creek Park on Friday August 5.

And what a great turnout from St Pauls: Father Matthew, and Brothers Dominic, Marco, Joe, Gus and John.

Thank you Father for the musical entertainment.

Brother Joe Skebo and his wife Kay brought son Joe and his wife Jody from Georgia.

And great to have the Kutsko clan, with four kids on the playground equipment!

It rained at 4 p.m., but remained dry for the festivities.

We enjoyed sausage sandwiches, burgers, corn on the cob from Molnar’s, and great side dishes and desserts from our Knights families.

It was a great time!
