About this Ministry
The Knights of Columbus is built around four basic principles: charity, unity, fraternity, and patriotism. The Knights provide financial and physical support to numerous organizations, assisting those in need, providing an insurance program to members, and displaying a profound love of country. In addition, the Knights fully support the mission of our parish, clergy, ministries, and the needs of our surrounding community.
What We Do
To this extent, the Knights of Columbus Council #6477 offer support and give aid to home programs, donate to the Samaritan House of St. John’s, Project Gabriel, Center of Family Love, Peru Mission, and the Prison Ministry. Additionally, the Knights provide a monthly pancake breakfast, serve at the Lenten Fish Fry, support the youth group, and display our "colors" at the town Fourth of July parade. The Knights serve the parish in whatever capacity they deem appropriate by providing funding and manpower as needed. This is truly a faith-based organization.
Time and Training
Time dedicated to this ministry is based on the amount of effort desired. Normally a fellow Knight can pick 1 program he wishes to join and expand if desired. A fully active Knight may spend 3 - 5 hours a month at most.

-a life of faith in action
