Welcome to the Twelve Apostles Council Website
Our website has information on council activities, charities, membership and information on the Knights of Columbus.
Twelve Apostles Council 5001 is located in Franklin Square NY. Our
council meetings are held in the Sienna Parish Center of St. Catherine
of Sienna Catholic Church which is just northwest of the intersection at
New Hyde Park Road and Hempstead Turnpike. The address is 33 New Hyde Park Road in Franklin Square,
Directions.
For the Columbian Year 2011 - 2012 our Grand Knight is Joseph Lannon. Visit the
Officer's Page for our Officers.
On June 28, 2010 the Council celebrated 50 years of service to
the Church and its parish community. Today the Council hosts two Parish
Blood Drives (last year we won 2nd place for pints of Blood collected in
Nassau County with 263 pints), we assist the Parish Outreach at
Thanksgiving and Christmas with food deliveries to the needy, our
members regularly volunteer at the St. Catherine’s Feast in various
capacities (look for us at the Zeppole Booth, 50/50 and Security), run
two fund raisers (Italian Festival & St. Patrick’s Dinner Dance), run
the “ Keep Christ in Christmas” Campaign & sell Charitable & Benevolent
Raffles. We give two Msgr. Thomas Groenewold Service Awards & two Jack Walpole Academic Achievement Awards at $125.00 each to students at St. Catherine of Sienna School and recently donated $1100.00 worth of pre school toys to their pre school program. We also support scouting and make donations yearly to the “Special Olympics”, we also sponsor an annual “Basketball Free Throw Competition” for children 10 to 14 years of age.
As you can see, we are an active Council looking to expand our involvement in Church, Community, Council, Family, Youth and Membership activities. If you are 18 years of age or older and are a practicing Catholic join the largest Catholic Men’s organization in the world. We invite you to join us, to give of your time and talents.
