Council 10333 holds the first of hopefully many Spanish CUF ceremonies. In an effort to allow Spanish speakers to better understand the beauty of the CUF ceremony, St Alberts held a Spanish CUF on September 11th. They brought in six new members into our Council allowing the new members and their families to better understand the importance of Charity, Unity and Fraternity as it relates to the Knights of Columbus. Special Thanks to Raul Solis, Ricardo Renteria and Mike McLaughlin who played key roles in the ceremony.
Council 10333 installs the new Officers for the 2025-2026 year. The installation of Officers was held July 24 to a celebratory crowd. Ceremonies to install Council Officers as well as Assembly officers took place. To top off the evening the annual scholarships, Knight and Family of the Year awards where also handed out. Families of both the Council and Assembly enjoyed the installation, awards and a beautiful dinner.
The Diocese of Austin was blessed to host the Blessed McGivney Relic. St Albert Knights of Columbus Council 10333 hosted the relic of Blessed Michael J.
