There are many benefits to joining the Knights of Columbus such as being part of something larger than one's self in service to God, Church, Community, and Country. As mentioned in our Council Activities page and detailed in our Upcoming Events page, our local Parish Council leads in service through the following programs and events: Church Activities, Pro-Life Activities, Youth Activities, Family Activities, Community Service and Council Activities. The greatest of these benefits is the fraternal benefit of offering ourselves in service, together with our brother Knights, as we deepen in our faith and work together for a greater good.
