Grocery Card Program
The Knights of Columbus sell grocery cards to parishioners that can be used for the purchase of both groceries and gasoline. Households regularly spend on these necessities, so kindly consider supporting this fundraiser by making monthly purchases of these cards.
We purchase these grocery cards in bulk and a portion of each sale contributes to supporting our fundraising efforts. As a charity, we benefit from discounted purchase prices on the cards, which is where our proceeds come from. Co-op and Safeway offer a 6% commission while Superstore offers 5%. Half of the proceeds go directly to Holy Spirit Parish, while the other half supports Parish outreach programs, typically ‘Come to the Table’ and ‘Feed the Hungry.’
Your support is greatly appreciated – every purchase of a grocery card makes a difference.

“Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over,
will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.”
Luke 6:38
