Suffolk Knights Bring Christmas to Woodward Children’s Center

For the 2nd year, the Councils and Knights in Suffolk County have helped to makeChristmas for the 80 students a Woodward Children’s Center in Freeport, a special

one. The Woodward Center offers a quality education in an environment that is

attentive to their social and emotional needs. A number of the students attendingWoodward come from the 5 boroughs of NYC. After their Winter Concert, Santaand a few elves visited each of the classrooms, where each child received a special

gift, along with a goodie bag. Your generosity will allow the school administratorsto take the 80 students on a field trip in January. For many of the students, it will

be the 1st time they experience ice skating at a local ice rink.

To recognize our support the Suffolk County Chapter Knights of Columbus, have

been given a place of honor on the Woodward Children’s Center Donor wall.

On behalf of Mr. Ingino, Executive Director; Mrs. Colucci, Principal; my daughter

Joanna, Music Teacher and Therapist; the Board of Directors, and everyone atWoodward Children’s Center - Thank you all for helping make their Christmas so

special.

Rest

in

Peace

In 1954, lobbying by the Order of the Knights of Columbus

helped convince the U.S. Congress to add the phrase "under

God" to the Pledge of Allegiance. President Dwight

Eisenhower wrote to Supreme Knight Luke E. Hart thankingthe Knights for their "part in the

movement to have the words 'under God'

added to our Pledge of Allegiance."

“I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for

which it stands, one nation under God,indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. ”
