About the Knights of Columbus
At Council 11948 we:
Come together in faith and friendship to serve our parish, support our families, assist those in need, and strengthen the community we call home.
At Council 11948 we:
Provide the connection between the individual Knight and the larger organization. We give members an opportunity to serve alongside those from their own parish and community while benefiting from the resources, programs, and fellowship of the broader Knights of Columbus organization.
Where the Rubber meets the Road
While the Knights of Columbus is an international organization, its strength comes from its local councils. The council is the grassroots organization where Knights gather as brothers, plan activities, identify local needs, and turn their shared values into meaningful action.
