Knights of Columbus Riverside Council #26 332 Elm Street Windsor Locks, Connecticut
What is the Knights of Columbus
Membership in the Knights of Columbus is open to practical Catholic men in union
with the Holy See, who shall not be less than 18 years of age on their last birthday.
A practical Catholic is one who lives up to the Commandments of God and the precepts
of the Church. Application blanks are available from any member of the Knights of
Columbus. Every knight is happy to propose eligible Catholic men for consideration
as members.
The Knights of Columbus provides opportunity for wholesome association with congenial
companions who are, first of all, practical Catholic gentlemen. It offers the opportunity
for fellowship with those who are of the same belief, who recognize the same duty
to God, to family and to neighbor and who stand side by side in defense of those
beliefs. Programs are so organized as to appeal to the individual interest of the
members. Through many constructive activities of Christian fraternity, members are
enabled to render service to their Church, their country and their fellowman. Through
membership they develop a consciousness of their ability to lead and to assist.
