The Father Robert H. Hurley Council (#5188)

Founded in 1961 with 43 members, the Sudbury, MA council is still very active with a focus on faith, fellowship, family and charity. The Council has been a Star and Double Star Award Council since 2014. Throughout the year, you can find us supporting many parish and community events such as: cooking for the Parish Picnic and Summer Adventure, sponsoring Altar Server Awards, donations for the Summer Mission Trip, Saint Patrick's Day Dinner Dance, K'Night at the Races and transporting Christmas gifts to Dorchester to name a few.  Check out our 2018/2019 calendar to view upcoming activities.  We continuously seek Catholic men 18 years or older for membership.  If you are interested, call Grand Knight Larry Vifquain at 508 624-4145 or via email at land.vifquain@comcast.net.

Why you should become a Knight?

Becoming a Knight of Columbus can transform your life. As a Knight, you have the opportunity to support your parish, give back to your community, grow in your faith and gain exclusive access to our top-rated insurance program to protect your family.

These are just some of the reasons to become a Knight.

We are a band of brothers, a network of men in communities around the world dedicated to doing good in the service of God and our neighbor.

What we provide:

SERVICE

• Support the parish with its needs
• Help meet the needs of those in the local community
• Provide “Coats for Kids” and “Food for Families”
• Support programs that benefit people with intellectual disabilities
• Aid victims of natural disasters and other catastrophic events, local and worldwide
• Donate wheelchairs to people without mobility at home and abroad
• Save lives through initiatives such as the “Ultrasound Program”

Charity is the first principle of the Knights of Columbus. Knights are men who get things done. We volunteer our time to serve our parishes and our communities. And by working together, we were able to donate more than $177,500,000  and 75 million volunteer hours to worthy causes in 2016.

SUPPORT

• A unique “band of brothers”
• Shared values and the support to live out our Catholic faith more fully
• The ability for our network to accomplish things together that we could not accomplish alone

Unity and Fraternity are the second and third principles of the Knights of Columbus. The Knights of Columbus was founded so that men could work together to serve their parishes and communities, protect the well-being of their Catholic families, and support each other in faith and in many other ways along life’s journey. The Knights of Columbus offers its members the opportunity to grow in their faith through living the example of a charity that evangelizes and personifying what it means to be a Catholic gentleman through the practicing of good works.
