  1. Sask K of C Vocations Endowment Brochures – ORDER TODAY
    There were several Councils throughout the province that were asking if we had prepared Sask K of C Vocation Endowment brochures for this year. Although there was not a province blitz planned for February, Councils may still wish to continue the annual request for support for seminarians within their Council and/or Parish.
    To continue the positive momentum of fundraising in support of our clergy, we had brochures printed for distribution (on a request basis) throughout the province.  We will provide cards upon request as well.   A copy of the brochure is linked here.  You can also view a copy on our website.   You may wish to print off copies. We also have a French copy of the brochure available on our website that Councils and/or members may wish to access and copy.  A copy of the brochure is linked here.
    Councils interested in brochures, contact granatier@saskkofc.foundation.
