The Knights of Columbus is the largest Catholic lay organization in the world, which is a fraternal association of Catholic men who stand up for the great virtues of our society including faith, patriotism, and loyalty. The Knights work to promote religious freedom and true family values by working to fully support our bishops, priests, and seminarians, and by bringing the values of the Gospel into society and in the Church. The Knights have a particular emphasis on serving widows, orphans, the homeless, and all our brothers and sisters in need. Member Knights are addressed as Sir Knight, and work to uphold the above, as well as their founding mission of protecting the family. On campus, the Knights run various events throughout the calendar year, which are published in our bulletin and on our online calendar.
