Knights of Columbus District 517, which includes Fr. Mac East Lansing Council 7816, St. Martha Council 10006 in Okemos, and St. Mary Council 7545 in Williamston is raising money to fund the purchase of an ultrasound machine for Cristo Rey’s new pregnancy center in Lansing.
Studies show that when a woman in a difficult pregnancy sees her unborn child growing inner womb on an ultrasound screen, she is more likely to choose life for her baby.
With this in mind, we will be hosting a cornhole tournament at St. Thomas Aquinas in East Lansing on Saturday, March 18.
We’d love to have you join us for a fun afternoon. We’ll have food available for purchase all day and a 50/50 raffle will be available. Registration is $40 per team and we’ll have cash prizes for first and second place.

As the priest explained to a small group of men at a meeting in the basement of
St. Mary's Church in October 1881, his purpose in calling them together was manifold: to help Catholic men remain steadfast in their faith through mutual encouragement: to promote closer ties of fraternity among them: and to set up an elementary system of insurance so that the widows and children of members in the group who might die would not find themselves in dire financial straits.
St. Thomas Aquinas has a vibrant, active Knights of Columbus council. Council #7816 invites men of our parish age 18 years and older to join and help make a difference in our community.
