Knights of Columbus
The Knights of Columbus was officially chartered as a fraternal benefit society in 1882 and the Order is still true to its founding principles of charity, unity and fraternity. The Knights was formed to render financial aid to members and their families, and it has now become the world's foremost Catholic fraternal benefit society. Today, mutual aid and assistance are offered to sick, disabled and needy members and their families while social and intellectual fellowship is promoted among members and their families through educational, charitable, religious, social welfare, war relief and public relief works. If you are interested in becoming a Knight, or want to know more about the Knights and their ministries, please contact:

Legion of Mary
The object of the Legion of Mary is the glory of God through the holiness of its members developed by prayer and active co-operation in Mary’s and the Church’s work. The unit of the Legion of Mary is called a praesidium, which holds a weekly meeting, where prayer is intermingled with reports and discussion. Persons who wish to join the Legion must apply for membership in a Praesidium. The Legion sees as its priority the spiritual and social welfare of each individual. The members participate in the life of the parish through visitation of families, the sick, both in their homes and in hospitals and through collaboration in every apostolic and missionary undertaking sponsored by the parish.

St. Vincent de Paul
Inspired by Gospel values, the Society of St. Vincent de Paul, a Catholic lay organization, leads women and men to join together to grow spiritually by offering person-to-person service to those who are needy and suffering in the tradition of its founder, Blessed Frédéric Ozanam, and patron, St. Vincent de Paul. As a reflection of the whole family of God, Members, who are known as Vincentians, are drawn from every ethnic and cultural background, age group, and economic level. Vincentians are united in an international society of charity by their spirit of poverty, humility and sharing, which is nourished by prayer and reflection, mutually supportive gatherings and adherence to a basic Rule. Organized locally, Vincentians witness God's love by embracing all works of charity and justice. The Society collaborates with other people of good will in relieving need and addressing its causes, making no distinction in those served because, in them, Vincentians see the face of Christ. For more information about our local chapter of St. Vincent de Paul, please visit our website for the St. Vincent de Paul of East Jefferson County Chapter: http://www.jeffersonsvdp.org/
