Tootsie Roll Signup Schedule

The Tootsie Roll Drive is probably the Knights of Columbus’ best-known fund-raiser. It is certainly one our most worthwhile. I encourage all of you to donate your time for 1 or more of our shifts. Have other family members participate as well. Many of us have our wives and children join us. The children learn invaluable lessons about helping others. The work is not difficult. We do not use a hard sell approach to collect money and we do not have anyone working in traffic intersections. All volunteers merely stand near the entrance to businesses. The businesses have been contacted prior to the drive and have given their approval for us collect in front of their stores. Most people know about the drive and you will most likely not have to say anything except thanks as you offer Tootsie Rolls to those who donate.
Last year we collected over $4,000. Our Council does not keep any of the donations collected. The money collected supports the Cedar Lane School and Camp Glow.
Please help us make this our most successful drive yet.

A FATHER IS … A Protector … Involved … A Loving Husband … AND SO MUCH MORE.
There is a role only a father can fill and gifts only a father can give. In a culture that often does not favor fatherhood or masculine virtue, we wish to highlight the unique contributions of men, husbands and fathers. The world would be lacking without them.
Whether you are a seasoned dad, a new dad, a dad to be, or a single guy wanting to know more about fatherhood, this Web site is for you.

Defend Life

Since 1987, Defend Life has been spreading the Culture of Life and fighting the culture of death through pro-life education and activism. We are the largest and most active grassroots pro-life organization in the Maryland, Washington DC and Northern Virginia area. 

A humble person is not fragile or weak; on the contrary, much integrity and courage are necessary to reject sin and grow in virtue, to overcome vice and live in real freedom, to stop injustice and live honestly, and to dedicate oneself fully to the labor of constant improvement.

Knights of Columbus - living humbly and in service to one another

The Resurrection Council is an integral part of the faith community of the Church of the Resurrection in Ellicott City, MD. The Grand Knight for 2009-2010 is Jeffrey Forsyth.

about our council
Originally named the Ellicott City Council, we were founded in 1994 through the efforts of a group of men at the Church of the Resurrection. In 1997 the members decided to change our name to Resurrection Council, to more closely associate ourselves with our home parish. Since its founding, the council has participated in numerous parish activities including the annual Bull Roast. We have also started new parish activities such as the annual Children's Easter Egg Hunt.

council meetings
The Council meets on the first Thursday (at 7:30) and third Monday (at 8:00) of the month in the Conference Room of the Parish Center.

Our Evolution
When our organization began, in order to help each other, our members "passed the hat" to assist families of deceased members. Soon, however, this became impossible, as the number of our members grew.
Out of this simple process, we've evolved into a modern, dynamic insurance organization, and offer a wide variety of products to suit virtually everyone's needs.
