Knights will comply with all CDC guidelines for food prep and our staff will wear gloves, masks and hats. We are investigating how we can accept credit cards, but for now please contact Steve Murphy with your name, phone number, date, time and size you want to pick up. We will put you on the list and notify you if we have credit card availability. Our goal will be to make this as touchless as possible, with a specific location where you can deposit money and pick up the pie or we can bring out to your car.

More About Bishop Primeau
The sixth Bishop of Manchester was the Most Reverend Ernest J. Primeau. He was born in Chicago, Illinois, on September 17, 1909. He was ordained a priest for service in the Archdiocese of Chicago on April 7, 1934. After serving in parishes and teaching in the Archdiocese, Ernest Primeau spent twelve years in Rome, with his primary duty to serve as rector of St. Mary of the Lake, the Chicago house of studies.
In 1958, he was named pastor of one of the largest parishes in the city of Chicago. In 1959 he was appointed by Blessed Pope John XXIII to be the sixth Bishop of Manchester. Albert Cardinal Myer ordained him a bishop in Chicago on February 13, 1960 and he was installed in Manchester by Richard Cardinal Cushing on March 15, 1960. He was one of the leading bishops from North America during the Second Vatican Council and spent a great deal of time in Rome in the early 1960s. He also founded the first foreign mission of the diocese in 1963 in Cartago, Columbia.
