Ignite Your Torch 2007

On July 28, 2007 the St. Louis Bertrand K of C Council provided lunch for over 250 teens attending the 3rd Annual Ignite Your Torch Youth Conference in O'Brien Hall. 

The mission of Ignite Your Torch is to ignite the faith of high school age Catholic youth so that they may live completely for Christ and together conquer the world for Christ. Ignite Your Torch is Eucharistically-centered, devoted to Our Blessed Mother, and catechetical in nature, and aims to build up the culture of life, foster vocations, and provide fellowship among Catholic youth.

 

Speakers at the luncheon included Archbishop Thomas Kelly.

 

Many thanks for Mike and Dave Kenny for co-chairing this event!

Thanks to Joe Kuczwara for his many years of service heading up the KOC Fruit basket booth at the St. Joe's Picnic!!! Joe tells us next year will be bigger and better.

The 2nd annual St. Louis Bertrand Picnic was held September 9.  Even with the threat of rain if was a great success.  Attendance more than doubled from last year's inaugural event.  Fun and fellowship was had by all.  Thanks to Leo and Judy Huelsman for chairing this event along with the many who volunteered their time.
