Welcome to our St. Columbkill Knights of Columbus Council #16544 website.  My name is Eric McGill and I am the Grand Knight.  Our council is based out of St. Columbkill Church in Boyertown, PA.

We have a been very active and have grown to over 100 faithful Catholic men since our Pastor, Fr. Martin Kern founded our council in September of 2016.  Our council has such a great mix of men from various ages and professions who love coming together to serve our Parish, our Community our Brothers and our Lord.  I truly believe we have something to offer for everyone that joins us.

There are many reasons a man may initially join the Knights of Columbus.  For my part, I initially saw it as an obvious way to strengthen our Parish.  I had been part of many aspects of the liturgies, groups and events that happen at our church.  I’ve seen how hard it can be to get support at times and the idea of bringing men together for a common purpose was very appealing to me.  I joined and as happens with many…was all in…rushing from one degree to another and volunteering for every activity I could.  There have been so many benefits for me and for my Parish beyond what my initial ideas were.  I have been drawn to grow in my faith, have gotten to work with and know my fellow Knights much more deeply and have served my Parishioners and Community in ways I did not expect.  I am personally inspired by the faith and commitment of my brothers on a regular basis.

Beyond that, as a father, I feel secure that should anything happen to me, my family will be taken care of.

I look at everything our Council has accomplished and am sure half of it would not have gotten done if we were not Knights.

If any of this sounds appealing to you I would urge you to reach out to me,  to the contacts on this site or any Knight and talk to them.  There is a place for every good Catholic gentleman in our ranks.

Why not you?
