ABOUT OUR COUNCIL
 

              MARYVILLE/ALCOA COUNCIL 3832

           IN SOLIDARITY WITH OUR PRIESTS

Maryville /Alcoa Council 3832 was formed on April 20, 1954.  Our Council supports Our Lady of Fatima Parish located in Blount County.  We are a part of a Catholic service organization - not to be confused with other service organizations such as the Lions, Kiwanis, Rotary, etc.

Pope John Paul II believes in the Knights of Columbus, an organization started 116 years ago, whose motto is "First and Always Catholic" and whose aim is "a council in every parish to support our priests."  We urge interested and qualified men of this parish, 18 years of age and older, to consider membership in this - the largest organization of Catholic laymen in the world....

We are a family organization and ask each practicing Catholic man to "make your family a part  of ours!"  We have many programs such as church, community, council, family, or youth activities.  We promote fund raising events and use the proceeds for charitable works such as support for seminarians, donations to the church debt reduction, donations to Right to Life organizations, donations to several Christian organizations, sponsor a Christmas party for the local girls’ and boys’ homes, and donations to needy families at Christmas.

Council 3832 business meetings are held on the first Tuesday of each month at 7:30 PM.  A family social meeting is held on the third Tuesday of the month in the Fatima Center at 6:30 PM with Brother Knights and family preparing the meal. TOP
