Another Strong Year of Activity for the Cassidy Council

The attached letter details some of that. I think my favorite activity this year was passing out crayons, religious coloring books and candy canes at the weekend masses just before Christmas. All supplies purchased by the council. Kids and parents alike were very appreciative.  Thank you Brothers.

Brother Knight Sponsor Letter 2026 Breakfast v1

Reverend Joseph H. Cassidy Council, No. 5231

Serving our local area parishes

April 24, 2026

Dear Brother Knights:

On Sunday June 7th, the Knights of Columbus, Council No. 5231, will be holding our Community Breakfast Fundraiser at

St. Edward the Confessor Church, 133 Spring St. Medfield, MA, from 8 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. Please note the change in location as we ran into some difficulties with the St. Joseph parish center.

The Council has experienced another strong fraternal year of activity. This is a partial list of recent Council accomplishments.

  • charitable monetary donations to all four local food pantries within our parishes.
  • We hosted Red Cross Blood Drives in September and March.
  • Hosted a simple supper at the St. Jude’s Stations of the Cross during Lent.
  • We organized and operated the kitchen for the St. Joseph Christmas Marketplace Fair.
  • The Council continues to participate in the Order’s “Tootsie Roll” charity drive.
  • Donated 5 cases of coats via the Order’s “Coats for Kids” program to the Medfield Outreach program.
  • Charitable monetary donation to St. Jude in support of their CCD program.
  • In January, we hosted a basketball free throw competition for area youths.
  • The Council purchased 250 Lenten daily reflections “Little Black Books” for St. Thomas, St. Brendan and St. Joseph.

On behalf of our Council’s Breakfast Committee, I can appreciate that many us have physical limitations, geographical differences, time constraints and scheduling conflicts that simply put, make it impossible to partake in our Council’s priimary fund-raising activity. I would ask Brother Knights, wanting to continue to support our Council’s activities, consider making a donation to our breakfast fundraiser. Of course, we will accept any contribution amounts, however a donation of $25.00 or more, will secure breakfast tickets for you and your immediate family.

Kindly make check payable to: Knights of Columbus #5231
