Louisiana State Council

Welcome to Louisiana Knights of Columbus where we, as men, united by faith, serve our church, families, community, and those in need.

Mission Statement

Together, we are empowering Catholic men to live their faith at home, in their parish, at work and in their community. Our goal is to help men, their families and their parishes grow closer to Christ. Through our programs and resources, we provide opportunities to live and spread the Catholic faith.

What does it mean to be a Knight?

Faith

Help men, their families, and their parishes grow closer to Christ. Through our programs and resources, we provide opportunities to live and spread the Catholic faith.

Serve

Lead your family and community in faith and service through our local council service programs.


Protect

The Knights of Columbus is a fraternal benefit society, which means we can provide financial security to members and their families, while turning premiums into charitable impact.

Defend

We advocate for life. The right to life is unlike any other right. It is the most basic right and the condition of all other personal rights, constituting the foundation of every human and political community.
