OUR CURRENT NEWS LETTER

Check each of the 5 service area Links for current projects.


    Council 311 is an old and venerable one.  Today we are working to grow both our membership and our activity level.  Being a knight means being an active follower of Christ.  Being a knight means not being alone in the world.

    If you are a knight we ask you to let us know what charity and services you are doing, we'd like know how we can help you.  Remember, there is power in fellowship.  Working along side brother knights multiplies your efforts, gives you support in the good times and the low times.  We learn the power of fellowship from Jesus and the Apostles.

    If you are not a knight, take a look at your life, the works of charity and service that you do already, and consider bringing them into our council, and let us help you with them; and experience the power of fellowship, the power of working together.  Many men have found that being an active knight is one of the most rewarding experiences of their lives.
