Council Officers
The Knights of Columbus are committed to the exemplification of charity, unity, fraternity, patriotism, and defense of the priesthood. The Order is consecrated to the Blessed Virgin Mary. These men lead the council in the pursuit of our aims.
The Duties of Council Officers, are available from the KofC Supreme web site for download, they are contained within the Grand Knight's Handbook.
