Pictures at Council and Auxiliary events
If you want pictures for the Knight Light for an event you are
running, the best way is to ask someone to take them; you will
usually be too busy. You will need a digital camera. Ask your
photographer to take pictures of people in action and having fun.
Don’t try to get everyone unless you can get everyone in one
picture. Don’t send ones you don’t want used and recommend those
that you really like! If you want Bob Spera to take the pictures,
ask Bob in advance (499-1544 or better bobspera@optonline.net) If
possible he will come.

Corporation 6893 is the legal entity responsible for Father Judge
Hall. There is board of directors meeting January 13 at 7:30 PM. At
the Council meeting on January 19 three board members will be
elected by our Council members. At a meeting on January 20, at 7:30,

Parish Food Pantry January 19th Feed
the Hungry
Brothers and Sisters, please bring in a food product for the
parish food pantry at the second (social) meeting, January 19th.
Your donation will be appreciated. The success of this program has
helped Parish Outreach ease the burden on our poorer families among
us. Submit to our Lord’s admonition to Feed
the Hungry!!
Little Knights
Our next meeting will be January 24 at 10:00 AM in Father Judge
Hall. Boys and girls, 5-12 years old, meet on the 3rd or

lotion, tooth paste, etc) for making kits for the Huntington
Interfaith Homeless Initiative. A collection box can be found in the
Council hall for these items. This effort will continue with this
effort through the winter.
Father Judge Hall—Talk it up
We are very fortunate to have a beautiful hall that is
well-managed and well-maintained. These are difficult times for many
and hall rental is falling off. The rates are reasonable and it is a
great venue for almost any event from a children's party to a
wedding reception. Be ready to recommend our hall for any occasion.
For details, go to the Council Hall webpage,

our Council
Father
Judge Council is named after Fr.
Thomas A. Judge who was the
second Pastor at St. Anthony of Padua Church. He was very
well liked by all parishioners
especially little children who anxiously awaited at mass on Sundays
to see what he had in his "little brown bag" to preach
about! He had a great sense of humor which helped him get
through a long but heroic bout with stomach cancer to
which he finally succumbed in the mid 1970s.
The Father Judge Council
works closely with the St. Anthony's Parish in East Northport, NY.
