WESTON | The Florida State Council of the Knights of Columbus recently distributed $100 gift cards to 40 families, mostly government workers or people who have relatives living in Florida, who were evacuated by the US Coast Guard at the end of September.
"The families, many with children, had to leave the island with only what they could carry with them," explained Scott A. O'Connor, secretary of the Florida State Council.
Present at the distribution was Miami's new Auxiliary Bishop-elect, Enrique Delgado, who did not know at the time - Sept. 29 - of his upcoming appointment. O'Connor added that Father Delgado "has been a great friend to the Knights of Columbus in Broward County. We are sure he will continue to be a good friend of ours in his new capacity as bishop."
