Building the Domestic Church while Strengthening our Parish
"The family as domestic Church is central to both the work of the New Evangelization and to the future sustainability of our parishes - also the future sustainability of the Order," Supreme Knight Carl Anderson has said. "But the Catholic family cannot perform this important mission on its own. The reason is simple: as Pope Paul VI observed, the family can only truly be a domestic Church when its daily life 'mirrors the various aspects of the entire Church.' And for this to become a reality the family must be more fully integrated into the sacramental life of the parish."
Insurance through the Knights of Columbus
Since 1882, the Knights of Columbus has helped hundreds of thousands of Catholic families get the security and peace of mind they need. We are the largest Catholic life insurer in the world, and one of the largest insurers in North America. Members and their families get exclusive access to our top quality portfolio of life insurance, retirement annuities, disability income insurance, and long-term care insurance.

KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUSFATHER BURGGRAFF COUNCIL #6021PERRY HALL, MARYLAND
From the moment of our founding in 1882, charity has been the first principle of the Knights of Columbus. We are men of faith and men of action. Our charitable activities encompass an almost infinite variety of local, national and international projects. We undertake these acts of charity because we see those in need through the eyes of faith. Moreover, in the Knights of Columbus, we approach these acts of charity together. Pope Benedict XVI calls this the "practice of love...as a community."
