2024 Annual Blue Mass A Success– Thank You!

The Knights of Columbus Monsignor James S. Conlan Council #5329 wish to thank all of our Brother Knights and their families who helped and attended the 2024 Annual Blue Mass at Most Precious Blood in Walden NY this past Sunday, May, 19, 2024. There was a wonderful turnout and all went very well. Special thanks to Brother Knight Ray Perry who, as he does every year, ran the Blue Mass proceedings; to Fr. Tom Colucci for hosting the Mass and celebrating it offering the Eucharist and blessings along with Fr. Matt Reiman from Holy Name of Mary in Montgomery NY and Fr. Ray Pavlick from the Church of the Infant Saviour in Pine Bush NY; the Grand Knight of Most Precious Blood, Mark Grogan and the whole Knights of Columbus Walden Council #9254 who hosted the luncheon; to all Police, Fire, EMS, Corrections and Military who attended along with their families. We also thank all those from our Orange County NY community who attended from near and far.

Also, we would be remiss if we didn’t thank the various local businesses who donated food and drink for the luncheon:

Hannaford’s Pine Bush
La Gondolita Pizza
Siena’s Pizza
Valley Supreme Liquors
Thruway Liquors
Larry’s Chinese Restaurant
Dana Beer Distributors
Manhattan Beer Distributors

Without the generous support of these businesses our luncheon would not be possible and kindly ask you to remember them when you choose to purchase goods offered by each of these businesses. All of these businesses have donated in the past to previous Blue Mass events among discounted food for our other programs. We are greatly appreciative of their continued support and kindness.

Please continue to keep our law enforcement, military service, first responders, and frontline workers in your prayers along with their families and loved ones. Let us never forget those who have passed away and especially keep their families and loved ones in our prayers.
