Brothers – I ask that each of you pray for the repose of the souls of Danville Grand Knight Elect Wally Bremer and his wife Jackie. Wally and Jackie died last Sunday in a car accident and will be buried on Thursday June 30. May their souls and the souls of all the faithful departed rest in peace.

Council 10682 place an ultrasound machine
Brothers from council 10682, St. Louis Bertrand, purchased an ultrasound machine for the Little Way Pregnancy Resource Center on Oak Street in Old Louisville. Their parish, St Louis Bertrand, has long been a supporter of The Little Way and all they do. Ellen Wickman is their Executive Director and does an great job with her 20 volunteers.
This sonogram machine is amazing. It is a GE Sonogram machine and is the latest in that technology. It will let an expectant mother see her baby 5 weeks after conception. It has already saved a number of babies. They raised $16,500 which was matched by Supreme (through the Ultrasound Initiative) to make the $33,000 purchase.
There was an open house on June 26 at The Little Way with a number of their board members and Knights present. Father Frank Ralph brought God’s blessing to the machine.
