0:00
On the Standing Rock Indian reservation that stretches across the border of North and South Dakota, more than 40% of residents live in poverty. Knights of Columbus from nine North Dakota councils came together earlier this year to build and deliver dozens of beds for families at the reservation’s St. Bernard Mission School. “It’s hugely impactful for their lives,” said Msgr. Chad Gion, pastor of the Catholic Indian Mission on Standing Rock. “For our students who are part of the mission school, these are the sort of basic things that change the quality of life significantly.” Become a Knight today: http://kofc.org/join Subscribe now to keep up with the Knights! http://bit.ly/SubscribeKnightsOfColumbus Stay connected on social media: https://www.facebook.com/KnightsofColumbus https://twitter.com/kofc https://www.instagram.com/kofc_official Visit us at: http://www.kofc.org

In September 2022, Hurricane Ian struck the Fort Myers area with devastating winds and flooding. The storm surge toppled the 8-foot walls of the Poor Clare Nuns’ San Damiano Monastery, trapping the sisters and their parish pastor. Knowing they would still be at the Monastery, local Knights trekked to the island that is home to the monastery and rescued the Poor Clares and their pastor, who had been trapped for four days.
