OUR LADY OF HUMILITY, COUNCIL #13598
ST. PATRICK, COUNCIL #12639
Knights are Catholic men, 18 years of age and older, who are committed to making their community a better place, while supporting their Church. Being a Knight is more than camaraderie; it is being involved with your community; it is supporting your local Catholic Church, while enhancing your own faith; it is about protecting and enhancing your family life.
The core virtues of the Knights include Charity, Unity, Fraternity and Patriotism

About our Council
The St Patrick Council was founded in 2000 through the efforts of the Illinois New Council Development Team. It is named after our parish and its patron saint. The St Patrick Council works closely with our parish, providing funds for various projects, members being active participants in many parish ministries, and supporting the many charities of the Knights of Columbus.
Even if you have not decided to be a Knight and would like to become engaged, please reach out to the Grand Knight so we can welcome you and get you engaged. Below are many of the ways we are engaging men and their families to help build the church and engage the world we live in..
