The Knights Of Columbus

If you're a Catholic gentleman, 18 and over, the Knights of Columbus are looking for new members to join the local council to lead, serve, protect, and defend.
 
Knights help in the parish and community with events such as Donut Sunday, the Crab Feed and delivering food baskets as well as faith based activities such as retreats and prayer groups.  They also raise donations for numerous charities throughout the year. 
 
The Knights are men who work to serve others but are also about supporting each other as brothers.
 
We all have busy lives but it doesn't have to be a huge commitment. An hour or two a month or one or two events a year.
 
We also have our Junior Knights ministry for young men between 8 and 17. It is an opportunity to learn the value of faith-based service to the community, while making new friends and having fun.
 
Remember you will get back far more than you give so please, prayerfully think about joining the Knights of Columbus.

The Knights of Columbus was founded by Fr. Michael J. McGivney in 1882.  Our Mission: We are Catholic men building a bridge back to faith. There is much good and necessary work to be done in this world, and that's what Knights do every day. The Order is still true to its founding principles of charity, unity, and fraternity.  When you join the Knights of Columbus, you join 1.9 million men around the world who stand up for our Catholic faith in the public sphere. We are Catholic men who lead, serve, protect and defend. We share a desire to be better husbands, fathers, sons, neighbors and role models and to put charity and community first.

In 2018, CCOP’s Knights of Columbus council # 6043 (the Michael J. Costello Council) celebrated 50 years of service to our Pastor, Priests, Parish, and Community.   We have a proud tradition of meeting the needs of both small and large to in our parish and are always inviting those who seek greater participation and want to answer the call to serve.

Our council meets at St Augustine’s Parish Hall, located at 3999 Bernal Ave., in rooms 4-5 on the second Thursday of each month.
