Who we are:
The Easton Knights of Columbus actively supports the Catholic communities of Holy Cross Family Ministries, Immaculate Conception Church and the Holy Cross Church by working closely with pastors, offering resources and manpower for parish initiatives, helping with community outreach, supporting sacraments and family life, and providing funds and volunteer hours for parish needs and projects. Councils aim to be a dependable and trusted group within the parish, ready to assist with the pastor’s priorities.
Our Four Principles Are :
Charity: Our Catholic faith teaches us to “Love thy neighbor as thyself.” Knights recognize that as our mission, and our faith in God compels us to action and to help those in need.
Unity: We can accomplish far more as a team than individually. We support one another. As a Member of the Knights of Columbus, you can count on the support of your brother Knights as you work to make a better life in your parish and community.
Fraternity: Knights last year gave more than 10 million hours of their time to assist sick or disabled Knights and their families. The Order also offers insurance programs for the benefit of your family.
Patriotism: As members of the Knights of Columbus, we are proud of our devotion to God and Country, and believe in standing up for both. Whether it be public or private, the Knights remind the world that Catholics support their nation and are amongst the greatest citizens.
