The Knights of Columbus is the world's largest Catholic family fraternal service organization. It provides members and their families with volunteer opportunities in service to the Catholic Church, their communities, families and young people. The Reading Council 1031 was founded in 1905 and serves St. Agnes and St. Athanasius Parishes.  Among our service projects are:  Food for Families: Drive for the Reading Food Pantry; Altar Servers Appreciation Events; Building the Domestic Church Info Kiosks; Pregnancy Center Support; Soccer Kick and Free Throw Challenges for Youth;   and Helping Hands which serves at My Brother Table in Lynn. We also provide financial support to many worthwhile community groups and events.

Membership in the Knights of Columbus is open to practicing Catholic men in union with the Holy See, who are at least 18 years old. For more information contact:  Contact: Bob Baynes,  Grand Knight. 781-942-1449 or go to our website Reading Council 1031
