Welcome to the Ukrainian Knights of Columbus
Fr Markian Shashkevych Council 7464
Website in Hamilton Ontario Canada
KNIGHTS ARE CATHOLIC MEN COMMITTED TO MAKING THEIR COMMUNITY A BETTER PLACE, WHILE SUPPORTING THEIR CHURCH. BEING A KNIGHT IS MORE THEN COMARADERIE; IT'S BEING INVOLVED WITH HIS COMMUNITY, SUPPORTING HIS LOCAL CHURCH WHILE ENHANCING HIS OWN FAITH, PROTECTING AND ENHANCING HIS FAMILY LIFE. MEMBERSHIP IN THE KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS IS OPEN TO MEN 18 YEARS OF AGE OR OLDER WHO ARE PRACTICAL CATHOLICS IN UNION WITH THE HOLY SEE. THAT IS, MEMBERS ACCEPT THE TEACHING AUTHORITY OF THE CHURCH ON MATTERS OF FAITH AND MORALS, ASPIRE TO LIVE IN ACCORD WITH THE PRECEPTS OF THE CHURCH, AND ARE IN GOOD STANDING IN THE CHURCH.

Dear Brother Knights,
Elections for the next executive will take place during our June Council Meeting that
will be held on Tuesday June 9, 2026 at 7:00pm in our council chambers at St Nicholas
Church at 260 Melvin Ave, Hamilton. The District Deputy will officiate the election of
officers. Please note that all positions other than Financial Secretary are open so please
attend this meeting and consider running for an executive position. Please note that
there will be no council meetings during the summer months of July and August 2026.
We held a Perogie and Sausage dinner at the Ukrainian Church of the Resurrection
in Hamilton on May 28, 2026. I thank the individuals that have stepped up to help in
the preparations for the event. Our next dinner before summer break will be held on
Thursday, June 25th. Contact Mary Anne at 905-869-9462 if you would like to pre-
order your dinner.
I wish to extend Birthday Greetings to the following Brothers having a birthday in

to Brothers celebrating in July: Brs. Bob Moskal, Peter Panko, Don Segodnia, Bogdan
Shvets and Fr. Tarapatsky. Happy Birthday to Brothers celebrating in August: Brs.
Ernie Bablak, Orest Gulka, Izidor Nebesny, Steve Procyshyn and Patrick Sullivan. I
also extend Wedding Anniversary greetings to Brothers and their spouses celebrating
during summer. Mnohya Lita! May God grant you many years.
Brothers, let’s continue to offer prayers for our Priests, Brother Knights and members
of their families who are ill as well as our deceased brothers. Above all let’s also pray
that the war in Ukraine will soon come to an end as well as for the military who have
died defending their beloved Ukraine.
Fraternally Yours,
Mykhaylo Furtak – Grand Knight
