A photo of the $1,500 check presented to the Vocations Office by the Knights of Columbus Bishop Roger L. Kaffer Assembly #3232. The funds were raised from the 4th Annual Priests vs Deacons Charity 16” Softball Game which was held in June. It’s always fun to see our clergy in a uniform having fun on the ballfield! They came from all over the Diocese to play!

Special thanks go to the Good Shepherd Council #5573 for hosting the event, Deacon Vic who arranged the post-game meal from Station One BBQ and to Plainfield Central HS who allowed us to use Eichelberger Field for the event.
The Priests won a “squeeker” 7-6 and we hope to have another thrilling finish next year. Date to be announced!
