AN ACT OF CHARITY

My God,

I love thee above all things,

with my whole heart and soul,

because thou art all good and worthy of all my love.

I love my neighbor as myself for the love of thee.

I forgive all who have injured me, and ask pardon

of all whom I have injured.

ABOUT OUR CHURCH

“Christians do not build temples: Christians are temples.  A church building is a place where the church – God’s people of praise – gather to worship God and celebrate the presence of the risen Lord among us.  The form of our churches is based on and reflects our theology of the church and, in turn, shapes the way we express our faith in our worship.”

MICHAEL J. MCGIVNEY

Thanks to the efforts of Father Michael J. McGivney, assistant pastor of St. Mary’s Church in New Haven and some of his parishioners, the Connecticut state legislature on March 29, 1882, officially chartered the Knights of Columbus as a fraternal benefit society. The Order is still true to its founding principles of charity, unity and fraternity.

OUR PARISH

The St. Anthony’s Parish community is proud to have been a part of Lloydminster since 1909. Our first church was built in 1910, and, with the growth and change in Lloydminster, it has been necessary to build new churches twice since then.  The second church opened in August 1949, and the first Mass in our current building was celebrated on April 12, 1987.

Faith

As Knights, our faith is our foundation. Dedicated to the Catholic church's growth and her good works, we support religious outreach, promote vocations, and provide financial support for seminarians and postulants. This way, we help support our church and strengthen our personal faith.

As committed as we are to the Catholic Church, so are we to our communities. By actively and financially supporting the special Olympics, by safeguarding the environment, or by helping to feed the hungry, Knights of Columbus members all over the world have helped countess communities prosper. 

Family

As fathers and husbands serving our families is not only part of what we do, it's part of who we are. To that end, Knights of Columbus councils offer

programs that strengthen family and marital bonds by holding numerous family-focused events, including the "Family of the Month"  program that honors outstanding families. Most importantly, as Knights, we are able to provide assistance and support to Knights and their families when needed.

Youth

The importance of helping today's youth become tomorrow's leaders is also a huge focus of the order. For that reason, many local councils sponsor Columbian Squires Circles, the Orders official youth organization for Catholic young men, ages 10-18, which provide them the unique opportunity to develop leadership skills. Additionally, through activities such as the Catholic Citizen-ship Essay contest, the  Substance Abuse Awareness Poster contest, and the annual Free Throw championship, the Knights of Columbus assists youth in building a strong sense of civic and religious responsibility.  

Culture of Life

As Knights, we know that all human life is precious and deserves to be protected, from conception to natural death. Whether it be supporting pregnancy resource centers, conducting baby showers for unwed mothers, mentoring at-at risk young people, or volunteering at elder care facilities and VA hospitals, members help to uphold the dignity of all human life.

 Fellowship

To be a Knight means to believe in each other as we believe in ourselves; realizing that by creating strong, social, and supportive local councils, we help create a stronger order worldwide and ensure an even stronger future. 

The Knights of Columbus is an organization fortified by its past, and driven by its goals for the future. It's through these six areas of service-faith, community, family, youth, culture of life and fellowship - that we truly make a difference.
