Knights of Columbus Council 13341

Officer Installation Dinner

A new fraternal year begins! We proudly installed the 2025–2026 officers for Knights of Columbus Council 13341. These men have stepped forward to lead with faith, charity, and brotherhood — and we’re excited for the year ahead.

We also celebrated two special honors:

Family of the Year: Jerry & Joann Graceffo Jr. — for their unwavering dedication and service to both our parish and council.

Knight of the Year: Mike Gonzales (not pictured) — recognized for his exceptional commitment and contributions throughout the past year.

Thank you to everyone who continues to serve and support our mission. Let’s make 2025–2026 a year of action, unity, and spiritual growth!

Summer camp at St. Michael’s Church in Wauchula

Council 13341 donated $3,000 to help support the summer camp at St. Michael’s Church in Wauchula. Approximately 95 kids ages 6-16 attended. Activities included bowling, soccer, water slide and faith formation. The special project this year was the making of small holy water fonts from coconut shells. Breakfast and lunch was provided as well. The Sisters of Servants of the Lord and the Virgin of Matará devoted their time to develop and run this event.
