Martha's Catholic Church. Dinner is served at 6:30 p.m.
In September of 1993, Rev. Charles Schultz, pastor of St.
Martha's Parish, asked Harris Gehl (PGK, FDD, CP) and Bill Franklin (PGK, FDD) to form a K
of C council for his parish. Harris then contacted the District Deputy, Joseph
Cherpin (PGK, FDD, PCJ), to inquire into what had to be done. Joseph, in turn,
established the rules and regulations of forming a new council and set the criteria for
the necessary 30 new members along with 60 transfers from neighboring Temecula Council
9964. The 90 names were submitted to Supreme with a request for the date of
institution to be July 1, 1994. A list of new council officers including Joseph Flaim
(PGK, FDD), the charter GK, was submitted to Rev. Shultz and the members for a vote.
The charter was approved by Supreme and effective July 1, 1994 and Murrieta Mission
Council 11393 came into existence.
Our council works closely with St. Martha Catholic Parish, providing funds for various projects associated with people and organizations in need. One of the main events each year is the Drive for People with Mental Disabilities in which council members, their families, friends, and neighbors raise funds to support local organizations such as Special Olympics and the Murrieta Unified School District special day classes. During the past 10 years, our council has presented over $64,000 to these organizations combined.
We are also active in fund raising events and non-fund raising activities for our Community, Church, Council, Youth, and Pro-Life each year and have raised thousands of dollars and spent thousands of volunteer man-hours to assist those people and organizations in our community that are in need.
