Knights of Columbus

Purpose:

The Saint Isaac Jogues Council of Knights of Columbus (KOC) is a service organization, which strives to make a difference in the life of the parish and in our community. Through these five areas of service - faith, community, family, youth and fellowship, we truly are the “go to” organization:

  • Faith:   As Knights, our faith is our foundation. We support the Catholic Church’s growth and all of her good works. We support religious outreach and vocations.
  • Community:  As committed Catholics, we actively seek to become an integral part of the parish by promoting a welcoming, supportive community. We proudly lead the charge in pro-life issues.
  • Family:  We seek to strengthen family and marital bonds by holding numerous family-focused events, including the “Family of the Month” program that honors outstanding families.
  • Youth:  Through activities such as the Substance Abuse Poster contest, and the annual Free Throw Championship, the Knight of Columbus assist youth in building a strong sense of civic and religious responsibility.
  • Fellowship:  By working together for the good of our Church and community, we create a bond of fellowship supporting each other in work and in our prayer life.
