The Council is located next to St. Paul on the Lake Church. The historic church was founded in 1849, one of the longest standing parishes in the Metro Detroit area. The Grand Knight for 2006-2007 is Greg Leslie. You can contact the Knights by email at Greg.Leslie@kofc12121.org.

Council meetings are the first Tuesday of the month beginning at 7:30 PM in the Parish House.  Assembly meetings are the third Tuesday of the month beginning at 7:00 PM in the Parish House.

Our council is named after Saint Paul the Apostle. There is much we can learn from the conversion of St. Paul. One lesson is that we should never judge others. St. Paul, the worst enemy of the early Christians would seem to be the most unlikely convert to the Church. But God had a plan for Saul, just as He does for each of us. We never know how some small thing that we may say or do will affect another person. When Paul watched Stephen die a holy death, praying for his persecutors, it had to have an impact on him. And Stephen's prayer was heard by God. The seed that Stephen planted by his Christian forgiveness of his enemies helped in the conversion of St. Paul. We are all called to be evangelists, to plant seeds of faith wherever we can - in our families and our work places. We never know when something we do or say might transform another or even bring a great saint and missionary to the Church like St. Paul.
