Council Information
|
Since its establishment on May 6, 1964, the Springfield Council #5560 has grown
to about 400 members. We are active in both our geographic and faith
communities; supporting several worthy causes and lending assistance where
and when we are needed. Some examples include our assistance to the Special
Citizens of New Jersey, Red Cross Blood Drives and the Mountainside Free
Children's Hospital to name a few. Additionally, the Knights of Columbus are
dedicated to championing the Right to Life for all humans, born and unborn. By
joining the Knights and donating some of your precious time and talents, you too
can feel a greater sense of personal fulfillment as well as lend needed assistance
to the community.
K of C Council #5560 is a family, fraternal, and charitable organization that serves
the community surrounding the parish of St. James Church. We are located in
Springfield New Jersey 07081, USA. The Grand Knight for the 2011 - 2012 fraternal
year is John Dougherty.
The Grand Knight in our council is elected for an annual term and provides
overall leadership for the council. Information about our officers can be found on
the Officers page (see navigation panel for a link to that page). We owe thanks to
the leadership of our Past Grand Knights who are recognized in the Past Grand
Knights page. We also remember and pray for those of our members who are
deceased.
