Welcome from the State Deputy

Brother Knights, I am truly blessed to serve alongside each of you and look forward to working together to make this a remarkable year for the Knights of Columbus in North Carolina. We have a tremendous opportunity to grow the Order, strengthen our councils, support our parishes, and bring Jesus Christ to the people and places that need Him most.

"Hope Does Not Disappoint" (Romans 5:5)

This theme perfectly describes our team and the faithful leadership you provide. Time and again, you have answered the call to serve. You have not disappointed the men, women, and children who depend on your leadership, nor have you disappointed our priests, parishes, or communities. Through your example, you have brought hope, faith, and charity to countless lives across North Carolina.

My prayer for each of you is that we continue God's work by bringing Jesus to the people and places that need Him most. Together, we will strengthen our councils, grow our membership, support our clergy, serve our communities, and build a culture where every Catholic man and his family can encounter Christ through the Knights of Columbus.

Vivat Jesus!
