Knights of Columbus Riverside Council #26 332 Elm Street Windsor Locks, Connecticut
Join the Brotherhood
If you are a practical Catholic man, age 18 or older, we welcome you to join the
leading organization of Catholic Brothers. Being a Knight is more than camaraderie;
it is being involved with your community; it is supporting your local Catholic Church,
while enhancing your own faith; it is about protecting and enhancing your family
life.
The First Degree teaches the lesson of charity, and upon completion he is considered
a Knight of Columbus and can participate in all council activities. First Degree
members are encouraged to attain the Second and Third Degrees, which teach the lessons
of unity and fraternity. Upon taking the Third Degree, a member receives full honors
of Knighthood and is “Knighted.” Privileges of Third Degree membership include the
ability to serve as a local council officer, and admission to state and Supreme Council
business meetings. First and Second Degree members can attend the state and Supreme
Council meetings, but they are not allowed in the business sessions.
