Our Programs

Faith in Action

The Knights of Columbus Faith in Action program model empowers councils to develop programs that meet the needs of their parish and community. Our programs are organized around four categories: Faith, Family, Community, and Life.

Through these programs, Council 6569 makes a tangible difference in the lives of families, parishioners, and neighbors throughout the Treasure Coast. Every brother Knight contributes to this mission of service.
