The Knights of Columbus is a fraternal and service organization of Catholic men who live out their faith by performing works based on our core principles of charity, unity and fraternity. We provide mutual aid and assistance to sick, disabled and needy members and their families. Our service activities focus on the areas of: Church, Community, Family, Pro-Life, Vocations and Youth. The Knights are open to all practicing Catholic men 18 years of age and older. We meet as a council on the first Thursday and third Tuesday of the month.
