Come Celebrate Deacon Larry Knotek’s 50th Anniversary of Ordination to the Diaconate! Deacon Larry Knotek and his wife Marianne have served the Catholic Church of Council Bluffs for the past 50 years! As part of their diaconate ministry of charity outside the parish, he and Marianne followed God’s call to “Do justice, love kindness and walk humbly with your God.” (Micah 6:8) Together, they opened the Micah House homeless shelter in 1987, and it continues to serve homeless families in our community to this day. Bishop William Joensen will preside at a Mass of Celebration on Saturday, July 23 at 4:00 at Corpus Christi—Queen of Apostles Church. A reception and program will follow in the Great Hall. All are invited and welcome to attend this evening of thanksgiving and celebration
