The Knights of Columbus is the world's largest Catholic family fraternal service organization with 1.6 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 the 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.
Our brothers serve in many of the church ministries including: deacons, hospitality ministers, Eucharistic ministers, Scout leaders, RCIA sponsors, Religious Education teachers, and many more. We help serve refreshments at RE group meetings and end-of-year celebrations, coordinate a quarterly blood drive, host an annual Basketball Free Throw contest where youth can advance to district and state levels. We solicit donations at the annual Tootsie Roll drive to assist the Intellectually challenged and sell raffle tickets for the annual state raffle where several lucky people win trips and cash prizes.

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.
