Knights of Columbus (Council #10884)

Web Site: www.stpeterkofc.org

This Knights of Columbus was created to help Catholic men and their families “remain steadfast in their faith.” The Knights of Columbus is at heart a religious service organization. Whether collecting donations for mentally handicapped citizens or serving our parish and pastor as laymen, our council makes service a living and breathing entity. Additionally, the Knights of Columbus is deeply rooted in the faith of Catholicism and a devotion to Mary. Our council has been quite involved with many of our parish’s celebration of the Blessed Virgin.
