K of C Commits to Hosting a “PACKATHON” to Provide 100,000 Meals for the Poor in Haiti

Please take a moment to watch this video of one of our Knights, Michael Gillis, who addressed St. Joseph's parish recently about the crisis in Haiti.  The Knights of Columbus have adopted CRUDEM as our Charity of the Month for both March and April to help feed the people of Haiti who have been devastated by COVID. 

The monies raised will purchase food which we will use to prepare 100,000 meals to help relieve the suffering.  In  June we will hold a PACKATHON to prepare these meals to be shipped to Haiti.  We are seeking volunteers to help us in this effort. Click below to learn more and see how you can help the good people of Haiti.

Support Our Catholic Schools

Helping cancer patients

We are blessed to have two outstanding Catholic schools here in Needham.  In a town with strong public schools, our Catholic schools offer an environment which is an academic match, but add an essential element to the education of our children: Faith.  The teachings of our faith are woven into the fabric of everyday life at our schools.  They inspire our children to reflect the Goodness God has instilled in them as his precious children, and that all people are gifted with a human dignity which is bestowed upon them by God.  As such we are called to love and care for one another as Jesus loves and cares for us.

Our Faith in Contemporary Culture

The Catholic faith had had an enormous impact on cultures all over the world for two thousand years.  And it continues to do so.  

You can see the Church's teachings, ethics, and philosophies all around us everyday.  Many don't even recognize it.

Art, education, medicine, law, social justice, literature, entertainment and more have all been profoundly shaped  by our faith.  In this space we will give you some contemporary glimpses of a faith that is alive and well in our world today.  Enjoy.
