About

Mission Statement

Faith In Action Scholarship Award

Sponsoring Councils & Assembly

Members of the group are asked to learn about how the “Knights of Columbus are a strong right arm of the Church” (Quote from Saint Pope John Paul II on April 29th, 2001).


Members of the group are asked to serve their school, church and community either in coordination with KofC councils or other student clubs as our founder Blessed Michael McGivney served others.


Members are asked to lead as “our role is to be men of unity and to bring people together” (Quote from Supreme Knight Patrick Kelly  August 1st, 2022). The best way for members to lead is by using their God given talents.
