Welcome

Welcome to the University of St. Thomas Knights of Columbus Council #11949! Please feel free to look around the site.

Knights of Columbus are Catholic gentlemen committed to:

•  Charity
•  Unity
•  Fraternity
•  Patriotism
•  Defense of:
  •  the priesthood
  •  the family
  •  human life

The Order is consecrated to the Blessed Virgin Mary. It is unequivocal in its loyalty to the Pope (www.vatican.va). The Knights are firmly committed to the protection of human life, from conception to natural death, and to the preservation and defense of the family. It was on these bedrock principles that the Order was founded over a century ago and remains true to them today.

Some of the things we do:

•  Social:
  •  March in Homecoming Parade
  •  Root Beer Floats in Murray-Herrick
  •  Cook-out during Finals Week
  •  Divine Mercy Hour of Prayer
•  Service:
  •  Annual Food Drive
  •  Fundraising for those who are Mentally Handicapped
  •  Sponsor a Child in South America
  •  Monthly UST Chapel Clean-up
  •  Cooperate with:
    •  Campus Ministry
    •  Students for Human Life
    •  St. John Vianney Seminary
    •  The Center for Catholic Studies
    •  Catholic Club

We are not simply a voice of a group of believers, we are defenders, servants, believers, and assistants of and in the Catholic Church and her teachings on social justice and morality.
