Insurance Information

For those who are not eligible for life insurance for some reason, a KC annuity is available for as little as $300. The KC Annuity is paying 5.25 percent and proceeds are non-taxable. What other insurance company do you know that donated $1.6 Million to the Holy Father last year?

Please help your Council make all its goals. The KC insurance programs include Permanent Plans, Term Plans, Annuities, and newly added Long Term Care options. More of us can count on living longer - thanks to advances in medicine, healthier lifestyles, and improved access to care. Now for the bad news: almost half of us will one day require long-term care services at some point in our lives.

The average cost of nursing home care in the U.S. is over $45,000 per year. Home care is more affordable – approximately $12,000 per year – but still carries a high price tag. If you consider that you’re likely to be on a fixed income during retirement, where will you get that kind of money?

Many have to deplete their retirement savings to pay for such care. Others are forced to rely on their children for financial assistance – difficult to do when you’ve valued your independence and have taught your children to follow in your footsteps!


You do have a choice: Knights of Columbus Care, a qualified long-term care insurance plan from the Knights of Columbus.

You can design a plan that will meet your future care needs – while fitting your present budget. In most states you can choose from either comprehensive plans which cover care in a variety of settings – or facility-only plans.

Our Council Insurance Agent is Jesse Gutierrez. You can call him at 695-3687 (business) or email him at jesseg1224@cs.com.

 




Council 4140 hosts our 1st Degree Ceremonies every third Thursday each month.  We attend the 5:30 Mass at Blessed Sacrament and then caravan to Council 4140 located on camp Bullis road


Major Degree
The ceremonials for the 2nd and 3rd Degree (called the Major Degrees), are held approximately three times a year in the San Antonio area.  There is no cost for the Degree or for the lunch for the Major Degree candidate, as this is part of the initiation fee when you joined the order.  See Schedule of Major Degrees in the San Antonio Area.

Fourth Degree Exemplification
