Less than six months after Supreme Knight Carl A. Anderson announced that the Knights of Columbus would expand to Poland, the Order is beginning to take hold there.

My council runs a bingo operation at a large bingo hall. We cover a few nights a week. We're a large council (over 400 members) and -- as a result of this -- we're able to generate well over $1,000,000 each year for charitable activities (we are a professional-type council with several CFOs, senior execs, etc.).
We use this money to support our clergy retirement home, pro-life activities, scholarships for parish children, food for the homeless, houses for the poor, a home for unwed mothers who choose life (versus slaughter of unborn babies) -- and a host of other activities.
I'm proud of the work we do...and it does bring grace to the men who do it (as well as a tight bond of fraternity).
I'm very impressed!
