Hoagies For Heaven 2023 – Call for volunteers after Mass starting this weekend

Brother Knights,

It’s that time of the year again for our annual Hoagies For Heaven vocations fundraiser.

Order-taking starts THIS WEEKEND, and we need signups to help take orders after every Mass.

It takes 10 maybe 15 minutes after Mass. This is an easy volunteer opportunity, and we need a minimum of 2 order-takers after each Mass. The signup sheets are here:

Hoagies for Heaven Order Takers – After all Masses, January 21-22, January 28-29, and February 4-5

Sub assembly will be on Friday, February 10 at 7pm.

With covid behind us, and some cost of supplies savings that will keep our price at $7 a sub, we should expect a large influx of orders. (Last year we made 525, and I’m expecting over 600 this year.) That means we’ll need 20-30 people for assembly on February 10th. With enough people, it only takes an hour to assemble the subs, and refreshments will be provided afterwards. The signup sheet for sub assembly is here:

Order pickup will be February 11 & 12 after all Masses. Again, this is an easy volunteer opportunity, and requires only 10-15 minutes after Mass. The signup sheet for sub distribution is here:

Gentlemen, as our Grand Knight reminded us in his lecture this past September, we need to shake off the sense of complacency that set in during the covid months. There is a desperate need for priestly vocations in the diocese, and this is the most important fundraiser we have to help that happen. Remember: no priests, no Jesus. We have work to do. Let’s get to it.
