The Knights of Columbus are a Catholic fraternal order of men dedicated to charity, faith, fraternity, and patriotism. Each year, the Knights raise thousands of dollars to support charitable causes and perform thousands of hours of service for our parish and our community.
The Knights at Sacred Heart Parish are looking for the next generation of Knights to join in the efforts of the organization, men of character and conviction who are driven by both faith and conscience and strive to give to the world in which they live.
Sacred Heart needs your help in mowing & trimming grass on the church/school grounds. All parishioners ages 16 and older are welcome to sign up! We have riding mowers, walk behind mowers and trimmers available to use. It's estimated each job will need 1-2 hours each week to complete.
Congratulations to the Sacred Heart Knights of Columbus Council 9632 for receiving the distinction of Star Council, the international organization’s top award for local councils. The Star Council Award recognizes overall excellence in the areas of membership, promotion of fraternal insurance benefits, sponsorship of faith formation programs and service-oriented activities.
Only about 10-12 Councils annually across the state of Iowa achieve this prestigious recognition level of Star Council. The Knights of Columbus in the state of Iowa has more than 31,000 members in over 200 local councils. Brother Knights undertake numerous works of Charity, Unity, Fraternity and Patriotism in their communities, schools, and parishes.
Congratulations to the Sacred Heart Knights for their hard work and dedication to helping the Sacred Heart community!
