Scott and Denise Rose

Scott and Denise came to all of the masses and sold out the Knights Christmas cards. This was a great idea to have them at all of the masses. Also, as it turns out, the cards were well received, and will become a new function for future years. We will also make the cards available in the Christmas Tree Shed.
