Knights of Columbus:

Why Join the Knights of Columbus?

Camaraderie. Community involvement. Growing in one's faith. Supporting the Church. Protecting one's family. These are a few of the reasons Catholic men and their families join the Knights of Columbus.

Many prospective Knights ask themselves:

 I don't have time to join another organization; why should I join the Knights of Columbus?
As a Knight you can choose the projects with which you wish to be involved in your own community. What is more, the Order is dedicated to family life and the many benefits it offers. From insurance to scholarships to service and social activities and programs, all are open to the whole family.

As a Knight you can continue doing what you do now and you and your family can enjoy the many benefits the Order offers.

A better question is: Why shouldn't you be a Knight?
