Refund Support Vocations Program
Also known as RSVP. The Knights of Columbus stand in solidarity with our priests and religious. Through this program, council and parish families will raise funds to support seminarians in their area. For every $500 given to an individual, the Supreme Council will refund the council or assembly $100. The maximum refund a council or assembly can receive is $400 per individual supported. Though financial support is vitally important, it is not the only aspect of the RSVP. Councils are also called to provide their “adopted” seminarian or religious aspirant with moral support and prayers for their success.
Council 8781 supports several seminarians of the Diocese of Knoxville, not only financially, but through moral support and encouraging communications. They are always in our prayers, as they learn to become leaders in our faith.
