Knights of Columbus

Council 14103

Recently, the men of St. Wendelin Parish started a new chapter of the Knights of Columbus.  What is the K of C?  It is the world’s largest Catholic fraternal service organization.  Father Michael J. McGivney, an Irish priest serving in New Haven, Connecticut, founded the Knights of Columbus in 1882 and named the organization in honor of Christopher Columbus.  The purpose of the society is to pray together, develop the Catholic faith among members, provide inexpensive insurance to care for widows and orphans, and to promote Catholic education and charity.

Our Knights of Columbus chapter is very active.  Members meet the last Sunday of each month in the church hall.  They sponsor delicious pancake breakfasts and spaghetti dinners.  Funds raised by the Knights are used for charitable donations such as gift cards to be distributed to the poor, support for St. Wendelin School, and various projects around the church grounds and our community.  One of these projects is the drain system in front of the church hall doors.  Before the men worked their magic, rainwater used to settle and lay in front of the doors.  Another is the addition of 52 padded chairs in the church hall.  Look around the grounds for many other Knights of Columbus projects.

The men of St. Wendelin Parish started a K of C here to provide time to pray together, time for fellowship, help for the poor, and support for our school.  Ron Hans is the current Grand Knight.  Gary Geibel is the Deputy Grand Knight.  Bob Mitch serves as treasurer, and Bob Geibel is the recording secretary.  All Catholic men over the age of 18 are invited to join St. Wendelin Knights of Columbus.  Knights do not have to be members of the parish.  All members are eligible for the K of C Insurance plans.  Anyone interested should contact a current member or look for forms in the back of church.
