Knights of Columbus.

Knights of Columbus are practical Catholic men over the age of 18 from all walks of life. The diversity of this group of men is highlighted by its unification in the Catholic faith. We are young, old, rich, poor, professionals and laborers. We all enjoy coming together in fellowship and the common cause of community service.

Since our founding in 1882 by Blessed Michael J. McGivney, the Knights of Columbus is the largest Catholic fraternal organization in the world, with more than 1.9 million members.

It was founded on these 4 principles (degrees):

• Charity

• Unity

• Fraternity

• Patriotism
