Construction work continues on the new Mary Queen of Angels Catholic Church and the new parish rectory, changing the configuration of the church campus.
But the annual fish fry remains the same.
“Not much has changed on our fish fries,” Knights of Columbus Member Calvin Barr said. “As the saying goes, ‘why mess with something that is working?”‘
The annual Knights of Columbus Lenten Fish Fry continues every Friday until March 22 at Kennedy Gym at 7th and Holbrook, on the campus of Mary Queen of Angels Catholic Church, and St. Mary’s Catholic School.
The Kennedy Gym is located at 7th and Holbrook Streets, just behind St. Mary’s Catholic School, and is the site of the annual Knights of Columbus Lenten Fish Fry.
The meal is from 5 to 7 p.m. and includes fried or baked fish, french fries or baked potato, vegetables, spaghetti with sauce, bread, dessert, and drink.
This is a freewill offering meal, but a minimum of $8 is asked for the meal, according to the flyer.
Barr gave an update on Mary Queen of Angels Catholic Church, which the Knights are a part of.
“Fr. Yancy’s new rectory is just about completed,” Carr said. “The workers are finishing up the inside this week.”
