About Our Council The Sacred Heart Council was founded in 1941 through the efforts of a group of Catholic men from our local parish for the purpose of serving the community and the church. The Sacred Heart Council works closely with the Sacred Heart Parish in Rochelle Park and the St. Phillips Parish in Saddle Brook, providing funds for various projects which affect the parish, the community and our member's social lives. The council has over 200 members and is an active part of each parish. Some of our events include:
About The KnightsThe Knights of Columbus is a Catholic men's fraternal benefit society that was formed to render financial aid to members and their families. Mutual aid and assistance are offered to sick, disabled and needy members and their families. Social and intellectual fellowship is promoted among members and their families through educational, charitable, religious, social welfare, war relief and public relief works. The history of the Order shows how the foresight of Father Michael J. McGivney, whose cause for sainthood is being investigated by the Vatican, brought about what has become the world's foremost Catholic fraternal benefit society. The Order has helped families obtain economic security and stability through its life insurance, annuity and long-term care programs, and has contributed time and energy worldwide to service in communities. The Knights of Columbus has grown from several members in one council to more than 12,000 councils and 1.7 million members throughout the United States, Canada, the Philippines, Mexico, the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, Panama, the Bahamas, the Virgin Islands, Guatemala, Guam and Saipan.
