Vol. 2, 2024 - 2025

The Knights of Columbus St. Gabriel the Archangel Council 12153 helps in the Holiday Boutique (HB) last November 6, 2021 at the St. Gabriel church Community and Bishop Greg Kelly center last November 6, 2021 in McKinney, TX. The Knights cooked and packed snacks and lunch items for sale, in coordination with the Columbiettes and Women's Club.

The Knights also conducted a Tamale Sale, which turned out to be a huge sale where its proceeds will go directly to the various projects and programs of the council.

The said annual HB was successful as it draws parishioners, visitors and guests within the community and the metroplex to shop for unique Christmas gifts.

With over 80 artisans displaying and selling their unique, artistic and original hand-crafted work of art items, the boutique indeed left an imprinted heart warming feeling for everyone who experiences such yuletide event.

Despite of the cold weather, the HB sale went smoothly as witnessed by the Knights, etc., wherein the presence of vendor raffles, delicious home-baked items at the Bake Sale Booth, and a snack bar with plenty of lunch items available for sale - added to the Christmas Spirit for those who shopped and visited in the made-mentioned event.

Likewise, people we're invited to donate a canned good for the Turkey Basket Program during the aforementioned HB sale.

Hence, the HB gave the Knights, the artisans, vendors, people and different religious organizations involved, the opportunity to serve and share their God-given time, talent, skills and resources in making a difference to other peoples' lives.
