The Knights of St Columba Council 95 (York) are holding their annual Mass in the Choir of York Minster on Monday 13th June at 7.30 pm. The celebrant will be Canon Michael Ryan, Parish Priest of St Wilfrid’s Church. This is to celebrate the Feast of St Columba, the Patron Saint of the Order. All are most welcome.
Apart from this Mass, there will be another Mass organised by the Knights at Fairfax House on Wednesday 6th July and a Mass in October at the Shrine of St Margaret Clitherow in the Shambles. There is always a Mass for the dead, which the Knights arrange to tie in with All Souls Day at the Chapel at York Cemetery.
The York Knights are also very active in fundraising and raised over £2,000 for the charity Smile Train during 2010/2011. They are currently supporting St Leonard’s Hospice in York.
