This Catholic fraternal organization founded by Fr. Michael J. McGivney in 1882 has served the Church and its parishes and communities for 130 years! Today it is the world's largest Catholic men's organization dedicated to upholding the teachings of the Catholic Church, helping people in need and fostering a bond between members.
As a Knight, men 18+ have the opportunity to strengthen our parish, give back to the community, and grow in faith. Joining our local council doesn’t mean sacrificing quality time with your family; volunteering an hour here or there with your family can make a real difference. Our local Knights of Columbus Council #5272 is made up of men from Padre Serra and St. Mary Magdalen parishes. They coordinate and carry out fundraising and social events to support a variety of charitable causes and Catholic education. For more information about the Knights, please visit Council 5272's website. Also visit: Groups

We invite everyone to remember and celebrate the lives of our loved ones who have gone before us to live in the light of the Lord. Names of your deceased loved ones will be collected and included in our Memorial Bowl, which will be offered in our gathering procession and presentation of gifts. You may also bring a photo of your loved ones before mass and place it on the altar corner steps.
This is an opportunity for deep intimacy and greater connection with Jesus. During your time, you can pray, be silent or engage in spiritual reading. This devotional prayer practice allows us to praise and adore Jesus, and also for our gracious Lord to reach out and adore us.
