Our many programs support the Church, Families, Youth, and those in the community who are in need. Last year, our Council got one of the special awards for "Campaign Supporting People with Intellectual Disabilities" where we collected money and donated it to Parents Helping Parents (PHP), Special Olympics Northern California, and Ada's Cafe which hires people with intellectual disablilities. Our knights volunteer a lot of hours for the setup and cleaning up of outside masses during this pandemic time such as regular mass times, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter. Our Brothers provided many volunteer hours serving many charitable causes.
Special thank you to three parish pastors and our parishioners. We couldn't do it without you.

Membership is open to all Catholic gentlemen ages 18 or over who share our desire to do God’s work and help those less fortunate. We are an active council of dedicated and hard-working members who enjoy camaraderie and a common sense of purpose. Suppose you are interested in joining our council.
