Teen Group

Good afternoon!

As you heard the news from Father Jerry this past Sunday, COTN has an opportunity for our teens to attend the Knights of Columbus sponsored trip to the 2024 National March for Life.

We have been blessed to receive a total of 8 scholarships to cover the cost of the trip. If you are interested, please let me know before December 1st.

Attached is the form with more information. In order to receive the scholarship, you must let me know first.

In Christ,

Amy
