An email chain is in place. Direction, guidance and suggestions for prayer are given by the coordinator. Contact Mary Lou Burkardt at 815-288-2539 or [email protected].

Knights of Columbus
Our Order, perhaps more than any other organization of Catholic laymen, is called to witness to a world that is unbelieving, that is doubtful, that is cynical, and that in many regions has abandoned the Christian faith. This witness comes primarily through our works of charity, through our families, and through the spirit of fraternity that animates our organization; it is a witness that proclaims Jesus is truly alive and so is his Church. If you’d like to be a part of an international organization of more than 1.9 million Catholic men whose principal work involves helping others in need, we'd like to meet you and invite you to join us. http://www.kofc690.com/index.html
