On Saturday, September 17, 2016, St. Bernadette’s Knights of Columbus held their annual Golf Tournament. Each year local Knights of Columbus Councils field a team to compete for the local KofC Trophy. The St. Clare Knights of Columbus team won among the KofC teams, retaining the trophy, and finishing 2nd for the overall tournament. Congratulations to team members Luis Zepeda, Craig Lanham, Jerry Moch, and Joe Voor.
The St. Clare Knights of Columbus – Council 9708 welcomes our new Knights; Jim Burn, Rich May, and Jesus Suarez.
The ceremonies were held at the Shrine of the True Cross Parish; Dickinson, Texas at the Knights of Columbus Hall – Father Roach Council 3217. We also had Cale Urban, Justin Adkins, Jim Burn, and Jesus Suarez advance to 3rd Degree Knights. Congratulations and Welcome to all !
On Sunday, September 11, the Knights and their families took a tour of the Co-Cathedral of the Sacred Heart in downtown Houston. This was especially meaningful since it was also the 15th Anniversary of the 9/11 attacks on our Nation. What a great way to honor the memory of those that lost their lives on that day.
On Thursday, August 25, the Knights and their spouses met at the Saloon Door Brewing for dinner and game night. This is a new business in the Clear Lake area that’s a craft brewery and sports bar. A great night of fellowship with some taking a brief tour of the brewing area.

The Knights served up scrambled eggs, pancakes, sausage, coffee, tea, juice, milk, and a lot of fun.
