CURRENT EVENT

2020 Spelling Bee Results

Council 1821 of the Knights of Columbus (Sacred Heart, Monticello, IA) celebrated it’s 100th Anniversary of the Council’s Charter on December 12, 2016 with a Mass, followed by a reception in Newman Hall. Paul Lee was the featured speaker at the reception which was attended by many of the members of the council, including, Bob Devaney, who at the time was the oldest living member of the council. The celebration was a fitting acknowledgement of the First 100 Years of the Council. That date started the beginning of what we hope will be the Second 100 Years.
