WHO WE ARE

We as members of the Sacred Heart Council focus on developing programs that best serve the needs of our local community. All the good works are driven by our four core principles of charity, unity, fraternity, and patriotism. We are a band of brothers, more than 240 strong, doing good in the service of God, our parish, and our neighbors. If interested in joining, or finding out more information, please contact SK Kirk M Kloeppel at kkloeppel84@gmail.com


FOURTH DEGREE CORNER

There are four degrees of membership in the Knights. The first three degrees represent the values of Charity, Unity, and Fraternity.  The Fourth Degree is dedicated to the virtue of Patriotism, fostering that spirit in all members and the community at large. The Fourth Degree is the one most familiar to the public, identified by distinctive regalia and their participation in color corps and honor guards. They work tirelessly in their outreach to our nation's military - active, infirmed, or retired. The Fourth Degree is a position of prestige and something for which all Knights should strive.

Grand Knight's Message

Greetings Brother Knights,

 

Easter is a time of joy, renewal, and gratitude. I am thankful for each of you and the ways you live out your mission of charity, unity, and fraternity. Let us carry the hope of the Resurrection into our daily lives--helping those in need, supporting one another, and sharing the Good News through actions. Just as the stone was rolled away from the tomb, may we roll away the stones of doubt, fear, and division in our lives. Easter calls us to step into the light of Christ's victory and share that light with the world. Easter reminds us that light triumphs over darkness, and life over death. May this season inspire us to serve with greater compassion, to strengthen our bonds of fraternity, and to be living witnesses of Christ's love in our community. Christ is risen! Let us rejoice and be glad. May your homes be filled with peace, your hearts with joy, and your lives with God's blessings. May this Easter renew our strength to serve, our courage to witness, and our joy to the Lord.

 

Vivat Jesus!

Worthy Grand Knight
