Unity - Bonded by Faith

None of us is as good as all of us. That’s a principle every Knight of Columbus lives by. Individually, we may do good work, but together, we can accomplish far more than any of us could alone.

Being a Knight means more than volunteering or supporting charitable causes. It means standing shoulder-to-shoulder with your brothers, offering encouragement, sharing wisdom, and celebrating each other’s successes. Together, we face challenges, overcome obstacles, and work to make a lasting positive impact on our parish, our families, and our community.

Because when we work together, we don’t just serve, we thrive as a community of faith and action.

Fraternity - Strength in Brotherhood

Fraternity is at the heart of the Knights of Columbus. It means supporting one another, our families, and our communities through acts of compassion and service.

Here in West Allis, our council brings this principle to life. From supporting our partner parishes’ ministries, sharing our faith, and assisting local families and neighbors in need, our members give their time, energy, and care to strengthen those around us.

Being part of the West Allis council means you’re never alone in your mission to serve. Together, we uphold the values of fraternity and compassion, supporting families, uplifting neighbors, and making a real difference right here at home.

Patriotism - Country and Community

At the Knights of Columbus West Allis Council 3095, we are proud of our devotion to God and our commitment to country. We believe in standing up for both - through prayer, service, and active citizenship.

Whether it’s volunteering at a local event, assisting families in need, or participating in community events, our actions show that Catholics are deeply committed to the well-being of their neighbors and the strength of their nation. In every public or private endeavor, the Knights strive to live out the values of faith, charity, and civic responsibility, reminding West Allis and beyond that faithful citizens build strong communities.

Being a Knight means living out your convictions, supporting your parish, and contributing to the life of your city. Here in West Allis, that means working shoulder-to-shoulder with fellow Knights to make a lasting, positive difference; whether through local service projects, community programs, or acts of everyday kindness.
