St. Elizabeth Ann Seton is associated with a number of independent organizations whose membership is composed of mostly SEAS parishioners. These organizations are an important part of our community life. Our parish happily provides space for meetings and special functions.
We are proud of our relationship with these organizations:

We, the Knights, are extremely grateful for the support of our SEAS Community and want to let you know how your support and generosity has helped accomplish so much for our SEAS Parish and those less fortunate.
In addition to our charitable donations, you will find Knights serving in leadership capacities in most SEAS ministries and other functional areas of Parish Life. Service to the Parish is provided NOT because we are Knights BUT because we are, first and foremost, practicing Catholics….but also members of the Knights of Columbus
We can always use more helping hands and ask all the men of our SEAS Parish to consider joining the cause.
