50 YEARS OF SERVICE

District Deputy Joseph Clary presents Council Charter to Grand Knight Phil Rockstroh 1958

The year was 1958 - Pope Pius XII was elected Pope, the first trans-Atlantic passenger jetliner service began from London to New York and a group of men in Southern California's South Bay community established the Knights of Columbus, Queen of Martyrs Council No. 4567. The council planted roots in Manhattan Beach, California and its goal was to serve the parish communities of American Martyrs in Manhattan Beach, Our Lady of Guadalupe in Hermosa Beach and St. Anthony’s and St. Andrew’s Russian Greek in El Segundo.

Those men (and the many men that followed) have strived to live out their faith and be devoted men of prayer and integrity. While supporting the poor, the hungry, the meek and the lowly members of their parish communities the men of the Queen of Martyrs council have amassed hundreds of thousands of volunteer hours.

In the last five years alone the council committed and donated over $250,000 to our parishes and to other worthwhile causes such as Rancho San Antonio, S.T.A.R. House (a home for persons with developmental disabilities), House of Ruth (a home for women in distress), Catholic school scholarships and local needy parish families, just to name a few. (see Activities page) The Council is grateful to its founding fathers for establishing the Queen of Martyrs Council and they plan on fulfilling its Charter's promise to serve the South Bay community.

LABOR DAY LEMONADE

The annual Fiesta Hermosa Beach Fair will be held Labor Day weekend, August 30 - September 1. And once again the Knights will be on-hand squeezing lemons at our lemonade booth. The proceeds from this and the other South Bay fairs are the primary fundraising source for the Council's seminarian grant and the Queen of Martyrs Scholarship fund. Volunteers are needed to work 2-3 hour shifts throughout the weekend to staff this busy event. To sign up please email PGK Chris Drewry at cldrewry@yahoo.com.
