GREENSBORO — Knights of Columbus Council 13236 of St. Paul the Apostle Church recently conducted its first “Pennies from Heaven” campaign.
Baby bottles were distributed after all Masses for two weekends to be returned to a special collection container at a later date. Parishioners were asked to fill the bottles with loose change, checks, or bills that the Knights could put to work to change lives.
The council presented $1,200 donations each to the Greensboro Pregnancy Care Center, Room at the Inn and St. Paul’s SPRED program.
