Parish Life Ministries
Coffee & Donuts
Food & Fellowship ministers serve coffee and donuts after Sunday morning Masses. These gatherings provide opportunities for fellowship and fun! Volunteers are always needed and welcomed to serve coffee and donuts and to set up/clean up. Various ministries also volunteer to take weekends throughout the year, setting up, serving coffee and donuts, engaging in fellowship, sharing about their ministries, and cleaning up after the last gathering.

Knights of Columbus
Knights of Columbus are Catholic men committed to the exemplification of charity, unity, fraternity, patriotism, and defense of the priesthood. The Order is consecrated to the Blessed Virgin Mary and is unequivocal in its loyalty to the Pope, the Vicar of Christ on earth. It is firmly committed to the protection of human life, from conception to natural death, and to the preservation and defense of the family. Brother Knights work to fulfill the central mission of the Order: striving in charitable works; serving the Church, unified in following Her teachings; supporting brother Knights in their temporal and spiritual needs; acting for the good of their country; and giving aid to widows, orphans, the sick, and the poor.
