Safe Environment Training
When Knights of Columbus serve as volunteers at an activity sponsored by our council on parish property, they are not only serving as Knights of Columbus volunteers, they are also serving as parish volunteers. Just like any other parish volunteers, members volunteering on parish property must comply with all safe environment requirements of the diocese.
The Knights of Columbus also requires Safe Environment Training and a background check for those serving in certain council service program positions. This is separate and in addition to the diocese requirements. The Knights will notify you concerning those requirements.
Policy of the Diocese of Tucson:
"All employees and volunteers, regardless of position, are required to undergo high-level security clearance and safe-environment training to ensure the protection of minors and vulnerable adults."
Once completed the training and background check are good for three years.

Join Us To Pray The Rosary
The St Pius X Knights of Columbus host a prayer meeting (remotely) each Friday at 1PM. All are welcome to join us. We pray the Rosary for the sick and distressed. We use Free Conference Call as our telecommuting platform. It allows the participants to join the meeting by telephone, smart phone, tablet or computer. You can join by audio only or share your video. The login procedure for the meeting is shown below. If you would like to add someone to our prayer list please contact Dan Pinda at drpinda@q.com. If you would like a guide to praying the Rosary go to http://www.kofc.org/en/resources/cis/devotionals/4772.pdf.
A typical Rosary meeting consists of a short greeting period as participants join the meeting. A solicitation for names to be added to the list, requests for volunteers to lead a decade of the Rosary. Deacon Dennis starts the Rosary, and we proceed through the decades and conclude with prayers for the sick and distressed and for Protection in time of Pandemic. During the Rosary all participants are muted except for the individual leading the decade. This limits the chaos of having multiple people speaking at the same time over the telephone.

effort, enabling us to fulfill our mission of serving families in need.
We collect and recycle aluminum can tabs, using the funds raised to support
