Midyear Checkup for Your Council
November 21, 2024 at 6:00 PM MDT
Join us on Thursday, November 21st for an informative fraternal webinar entitled Midyear Checkup for Your Council.
The midyear checkpoint is the optimal time for your council to assess what works, what doesn't work, and how you can make the most of the rest of the year.
In this webinar, we will showcase some best practices and significant accomplishments, as well as have an honest dialogue about common obstacles your council may encounter, and how they can be overcome. We will also delineate an outline for success for the remainder of the year, so your council can be well on its way to earning the Star Award.
And remember, if you can't join us live, it will be available on-demand afterwards. Be sure to sign-up to ensure you get the link for this important webinar.

XXFYI - 39th World Youth Day
11-24-2024   All Day Event

Nov. 24 — 39th World Youth Day
~
The 39th World Youth Day will be celebrated on the diocesan level on the solemnity of Christ the King (Nov. 24) on the theme: “Those who hope in the Lord shall walk without growing weary” (Is 40:31).
“Courage! All of you have a special place in my heart,” Pope Francis wrote in his message to young people in anticipation of the celebration. “I entrust your journey to the Virgin Mary, so that, following her example, you may be able to look forward with patience and confidence to the fulfilment of all your hopes, even now, as you persevere in your journey as pilgrims of hope and of love.”
Since 2021, every Catholic faith community around the world has been encouraged to celebrate and reflect on youth and young adults annually on Christ the King Sunday. To support that celebration, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops has published A National Pastoral Resource Guidebook for the Global Celebration of Young People, as well as a prayer for youth and young adults, and a list of ideas for parishes and local churches to celebrate this event.

What are the Knights of Columbus?

The Knights of Columbus is a Catholic men’s fraternal benefit society that was formed to render financial aid to members and their families. Mutual aid and assistance are offered to sick, disabled and needy members and their families. Social and intellectual fellowship is promoted among members and their families through educational, charitable, religious, social welfare, war relief and public relief works. Imagine being part of an organization that fills your heart and your mind with the joy of giving to others and the feeling that comes with making a difference. Knights are Catholic men, 18 years of age and older, who are committed to making their community a better place, while supporting their Church. Being a Knight is more than camaraderie; it is being involved with your community; it is supporting your local Catholic Church, while enhancing your own faith; it is about protecting and enhancing your family life. Please contact us for more information about becoming a Knight!
