As of July 1, 2022, our new Grand Knight is Dale Blom. We thank Mike Temporal for his dedication and efforts this last two years as Grand Knight.
Meetings are held the 4th Tuesday of the month at 7:00 pm in the Hall.
The Fr Shevlin Knights Council in Laurel has been active since the early 70's. We support Saint Anthony Parish in many different ways. We have raised money for things Father and the Church council need for various projects over the years like paving the parking lot, putting a new roof on the rectory or many others. We hold various fundraisers in addition to the dues each Knight pays every year. Three of the largest fundraisers are the roast beef dinner in February, 5th Sunday Breakfasts, and selling Blue Coupon books that come out every Sept. 1.
In 1882, Fr. McGivney formed the Knights of Columbus in order to care for widows and orphans. After the Civil War, many husbands, fathers and sons never came home to care for their families.
Since then, the Councils have gone worldwide, with well over a million members. Millions of man hours are given every year to support the widows and orphans, the Catholic Church, especially in our devotion to our Mother Mary. We support many charities with millions of dollars along with volunteer hours.
We offer to each Knight and their families the opportunity to purchase various insurance products that carry the number 1 rating of all insurance companies in the nation!
