New Sir Knights!

Assembly 2467
Deacon James M. Seghers, Sr.
Many of our 3rd Degree Brother Knights accept a calling for the next step, that of becoming a Fourth Degree member of the Knights of Columbus. Members who wish to live out patriotism together can join “the Fourth Degree.” Members of this degree have the special honor of holding the title “Sir Knight,” participating in color and honor guards and organizing programs that promote Catholic citizenship. “The fourth principle ‘Patriotism,’ commits our members to the preservation of our Church, our Order and to the many nations where Knights serve,”
Supreme Master Dennis Stoddard.
