Sacred Heart Council #2842
The nearly 2 million members of the Knights of Columbus form the largest Catholic fraternal group in existence. Chances are that your neighbor, accountant, child’s teacher or even a police officer in your town may all be fellow Brother Knights and you’re not even aware. As Knights, we serve our parish and community while working each day to create a better world through charity. If you are looking to live out your faith in the spirit of charity by helping others, our Knights of Columbus council welcomes you to join us.
Knights and their families have the opportunity to become involved in our council’s charitable, faith-based and social programs. Over the past decade, men like you have enabled the charitable donations of the Knights of Columbus to reach more than $1.5 Billion dollars and individual Knights have donated more than 700 million volunteer hours of charity. Since our founding in 1882 by the Venerable Servant of God Father Michael McGivney, the first principal of the Order has been charity: our council and those around the world actively assist the Church and our neighbors in need. We are also founded to protect the livelihood of Catholic families and that commitment means that we continue to provide our members and their families with top quality life insurance and annuity products. Arguably the insurance police provided to Brother Knights and their families is the best life insurance policy an individual will find anywhere in North America! No life insurer in North America has a higher rating than the Knights of Columbus.
Today, we would like to offer you the opportunity to join us in our work for God and neighbor. Our council has undertaken many activities that benefit our parish and community such as…
As much good as our council has done over the years, we could do even more with your help. We invite you to join our council today and help us be the difference in our parish and community. Thank you!
Sincerely,
Nelson Cupeles – Chancellor
