Volunteer to make a difference
The Knights of Columbus' first core principle is focused on Charity. Every effort we make to support our families, friends, communities, and the world can actually make a monumental and positive difference in our everyday lives.
Whether you are a Knight or not, you and your family can always take part in helping with the many events that our council partakes in throughout the year. Check out various opportunities to volunteer as events become available throughout the year.
COUNCIL 5207 PROUDLY SUPPORTS
The founding principle for the Knights of Columbus and the basis for everything we do is Charity. We strive to support so many within our community.
We graciously ask you to consider clicking below to provide a donation towards any of our efforts. In doing so, you will help make a difference in someone's life.
Thanks to the unwavering generosity of our Knights and the heartfelt support from our local community, our council has been privileged to participate in and champion a wide range of charitable initiatives. It is through this shared commitment that we’re able to continue serving others and sustaining this vital mission for years to come.
Prayer: The Heart’s Pathway to Peace and Purpose
Prayer isn’t about asking — it’s the soul’s quiet reaching for something greater. As Gandhi said, “Prayer is not asking. It is a longing of the soul.” In its purest form, prayer is presence: a sacred yearning for peace, healing, and connection. It doesn’t need words to be powerful; it simply needs honesty. In that longing, we find strength, comfort, and the quiet assurance that we are never alone.
Prayer To Saint Michael the Archangel
St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the Devil.
May God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou, O Prince of heavenly hosts, by the power of God, cast into hell Satan, and all the evil spirits, who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls.
Amen.
Prayer for the Canonization of Blessed Michael McGivney
Founder of the Knights of Columbus
God, our Father, protector of the poor and defender of the widow and orphan, you called your priest, Blessed Michael McGivney, to be an apostle of Christian family life and to lead the young to the generous service of their neighbor. Through the example of his life and virtue, may we follow your Son, Jesus Christ, more closely, fulfilling his commandment of charity and building up his Body which is the Church.
Let the inspiration of your servant prompt us to greater confidence in your love so that we may continue his work of caring for the needy and the outcast. We humbly ask that you glorify Blessed Michael McGivney on earth according to the design of your holy will.
Through his intercession, grant the favor I now present (make your request here). Through Christ our Lord. Amen.

What it means to be a Fraternal Benefit Society
The Knights of Columbus is more than a membership organization—it’s a fraternal benefit society. That means we offer financial protection for members and their families, while using member premiums to fuel charitable outreach around the world.
Every policy supports both personal security and a broader mission of faith in action.
