Knights of Columbus donate wheelchairs

Cuero Knights of Columbus Council 1682 contributed three wheelchairs, and Yorktown Council 2480 contributed one wheelchair, to Holy Family Hospital in the Catholic Diocese of Sunyani, Ghana, Africa.

GOD first... Heavenly Father, it is hard to forgive others when we are to love our neighbors as ourselves. You forgive us because we are loved by You unconditionally. Give us strength as we pray: to love others around us with forgiveness as You forgive us. Cast away our doubts. Help us to understand the power of love of Your Amazing Grace. We ask in the name of our Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen. 11/20/2024 09:02 PM
