The St. Benedict Knights of Columbus (KofC) is pleased to offer a community seasonal tire swap program for vehicle owners within the Sarnia Bluewater Roman Catholic Family of Parishes (FOP) on 22 and 29 between 9am and 12pm.
This initiative aims to assist the community with the transition of seasonal tires while raising funds to purchase and maintain a defibrillator machine for St. Benedict and Queen of Peace Churches.
All tire swaps will be conducted by qualified, licensed automotive technicians to ensure safety and quality. All those interested must bring their vehicles and mounted tires on wheel rims to the St. Benedict Church driveway, near the garage situated between the church office and Holy Trinity school.
A minimum donation of $50 is requested for this service. Payment can be made by cash, cheque or e-transfer to the Knights of Columbus at [email protected]. Charitable tax receipts will be provided. Parishioners' generosity is greatly appreciated.
All proceeds of this community tire swap is for the purchase of two defibrillator machines for St. Benedict and Queen of Peace Church.

What is Vespers?Also called Evening Prayer, Vespers is part of the Liturgy of the Hours — the ancient prayer of the Church that fulfills Jesus’ command to “pray always” (Luke 18:1; cf. 1 Thess. 5:17).The Liturgy of the Hours marks the day with prayer, offering continual praise to God and intercession for the needs of the world. The two most important times (also referred to as “hinge hours”) are:Morning Prayer – upon risingEvening Prayer – as the day endsBishops, priests, deacons, religious brothers and sisters, and many lay people around the world pray these prayers daily, uniting their voices to the universal Church.Evening Prayer gives thanks for the day just past and makes an evening sacrifice of praise (Psalm 141:1).Join us for Vespers at Our Lady of Mercy — every Sunday at 4:30 PM — and experience this beautiful tradition yourself.
