Why be a Knight?
The Knights of Columbus is the world’s largest Catholic fraternal service organization. Founded in the United States in 1882, it is named in honor of Christopher Columbus. There are close to 2 million members in over 15,000 councils.
Knights are Catholic men, 18 years of age and older, who are committed to making their community a better place, while supporting their Church. Being a Knight is more than camaraderie; it is being involved with your community; it is supporting your local Catholic Church, while enhancing your own faith; it is about protecting and enhancing your family life.

Your council’s award plaque will be shipped to your District Deputy for presentation. Production and delivery of awards is currently estimated at 10-12 weeks. Additionally, to help celebrate this accomplishment and promote your council, attached please find a bulletin announcement and press release for your use. These are great tools that will highlight your good works in the community. There is still much to be done and we need your council to lead the way. Keep the momentum going and start planning now for another successful fraternal year! The new 2022-2023 Star Council requirements, which can be found at KofC.Org/Star, will help guide your council to excellence in the year to come. Thank you and Vivat Jesus! |

Our Impact In the Community
Our Missions
This Man is You (TMIY)
Come join men of faith each Saturday in the St Philip Activities Center from 7:00-8:30am to enrich your faith with 30-40 men who are also looking for answers. We open at 7am with coffee and fellowship. At 7:30 the meeting begins with a 30 minute video. Then we spend the last 30 minutes discussing the topics at hand. It is a great program to meet men who are open about their experiences and the challenges of their faith. The program is run by knight Ismael Fierra and his team. You do not need to be a Knight or Catholic to attend. There is no cost other than your time .

Members should meet with Paul, a brother Knight and parishioner at St Philip, to customize a program to fit your family’s needs.
