Knights of Columbus Council 7566

The Knights of Columbus Council #7566 selected the Buehrig family as the Council's Family of the Month for May 2018.  Grant, his wife Aquina and their family have been members of St. John Neumann Parish for more than 20 years.
Grant, a 3rd Degree Knight, has been in the K of C for more than eight years.  He and Aquina are SJN Greeters and volunteer for the annual Hypothermia Week.  Grant enthusiastically does much of the "grunt work" for the Knight's Charity breakfasts and can frequently be seen serving at 9:30 mass on Sunday.

The Knights of Columbus will host their monthly Charity Fundraising Breakfast on Sunday, May 6, from 8:30 to 11:00am. This month, the designated charity is Specially Adapted Resource Clubs (SPARC).

SPARC provides a unique day support program for young adults with life-long disabilities. SPARC believes that every person has a right to fully participate in their community. With appropriate supports, isolation from the community can be changed to inclusion in the community.

On Saturday, April 21st, Brother Dominique K. Anato joined the Fourth Degree, the Patriotic Order of the Knights of Columbus. Sir Knight Dominique was among 117 Knights from across Virginia that gathered for this Exemplification that took place at Saints Peter & Paul Roman Catholic Church in Palmyra, VA. He was escorted by Grand Knight Bob Balog and together with four Brothers from the area was welcomed as a new member of the Elizabeth Bayley Seton Assembly #1781 in Sterling, VA. Congratulation Sir Knight Dominique Anato!

On April 10th, Brothers Andrew Eberly and James Mueller from our Family of Man Council received their Formation Degree during a special ceremony held at All Saints Catholic Church in Manassas, VA. They were escorted by our Grand Knight, Bob Balog and Membership Chairman, Brother Mike Poland.

The principle of the Formation (formally 2rd) Degree is Unity and it reflects the strength of our Order when acting together.

Please congratulate our Brother Knights Andrew and Jim on achieving this significant milestone.
