Knight’s Korner – June 14-15, 2008

Principles of the Order:  The four principles of the Order are Charity, Unity, Fraternity and Patriotism. As Knights we are committed to charity, easing the plight of those less fortunate. In unity, there is strength. Through the Knights of Columbus, men are able to band together as brothers to help each other in times of distress, sickness and death. One of the reasons the Order was founded was to emphasize that Catholics are proud citizens of their countries. Today, Fourth Degree Knights in full regalia serve to witness to the values of devotion to God and country, the bedrock of patriotism. Pictured here, Brother Knights John Davis and Don Lesher congratulate each other on achieving 3rd Degree Knighthood on June 1st. (For more info, read “These Men They Call Knights.”)
