Knights of Columbus
Approximately 140 Catholic men from the Saint George Parish and KofC nearby communities in Southwest Utah (Kanab, Fredonia, Ivins, Saint George etc.) are members of Council 10733 of the national organization of Catholic men called the Knights of Columbus.
The Knights of Columbus serves the Parish and Community in many ways... the list below includes most of our Council's activities during the past year. We wish that every practicing Catholic man in our Parish belonged to this wonderful organization, operated on the four principles of charity, fraternity, and patriotism. Beyond the fun of knowing, associating with and working with some great guys in this area, being a knight is a great way to "stand up and be counted" in our community.
1st Tuesday of month, Rosary at 6:30pm, followed by meeting at 7:00
pm.
