Brother Knights Joe Cruz, left, and Mark Van Engelen, right, presented roses and rosaries to the mothers
and fathers at the Feb. 19 Baptisms.
Council 16492 continues to take part in this meaningful and emotional tribute to Mothers and their
babies. At each Baptism, we present white roses to the mothers indicating purity, and rosaries,
purchased from the SJPII Rosary Ministry, to the fathers stressing the importance of everyday prayers in
their families’ lives. We also assist the SJPII Moms’ Ministry by handing out gifts from them to the
mothers. Baptisms will resume after Easter and anyone who would like to help can contact Deputy
Grand Knight Pete Falcone.
