Knights of Columbus #7965
"In service to one, in service to all"
The Knights of Columbus is the world's largest Catholic family fraternal
service organization with 1.7 million members. It provides members and their
families with volunteer opportunities in service to the Catholic Church, their
communities, families and young people.
As a member of the Knights of Columbus you and your family enjoy many
benefits, including 12 free issues annually of Columbia magazine, the world's
largest Catholic family magazine, eligibility to join the Knights of Columbus
top-ranked life insurance program, and many more family and personal
benefits.
We celebrate our faith with; fellowship and brotherhood. We do a lot of charity
work in our area, and invite you to join us.
Membership in the Knights of Columbus is open to practicing Catholic men in
union with the Holy See, who are at least 18 years old. A practicing Catholic is
one who lives up to the Commandments of God and the precepts of the
Church. Application blanks are available from any member of the Knights of
Columbus.
Any Third Degree member in good standing, one year after the anniversary of
his First Degree, is eligible for membership in the Fourth Degree. The primary
purpose of the Fourth Degree is to foster the spirit of patriotism by promoting
responsible citizenship and a love of and loyalty to the Knights' respective
countries through active membership in local Fourth Degree groups (called
"assemblies"). Certain members of the Fourth Degree serve as honor guards
at civic and religious functions, an activity that has brought worldwide
recognition to the Knights of Columbus.
The Ladies Auxiliary's main function is to SUPPORT the men and the council.
They do this primarily by providing help at events, cooking for events and
providing monetary help. They also generally do help with setting up and
beautifying the hall for events.
Under the guidance of Christian Brother Barnabas McDonald (1865-1929), the
first Columbian Squires circle was instituted in 1925. Membership in the
Squires is for Catholic boys between the ages of 12 and 17. Squires' activities
are many, varying from spiritual to active service for the Church and
community. Each circle elects officer members from their own rank, teaching
skills of leadership and responsibility.
