Master’s Message
As members of the Fourth Degree, Knights of Columbus, we are Knights of the highest Degree. We encourage all Catholic Men to join our Order and we encourage all Third Degree members to join the Fourth Degree.
We have learned the lessons of Charity, Unity and Fraternalism in our first, second and third degrees. The Fourth Degree is dedicated to promoting “Patriotism “ which is Love of God, His Church and our Country, Canada.
As members of the Fourth Degree, Knights of Columbus, dressed in our black tuxedos, we join the other Sir Knights of our Assemblies in the Honour Guard and Color Corps outings proudly wearing our Regalia – the Cape, Chapeau and Sword. We are recognized as the visible arm of the Catholic Church and as such we must act accordingly, as Catholic Gentlemen.
Our sword, carried by Sir Knights, is the sword of faith, the symbol demonstrates the steadfastness of the Sir Knights in their, love of Jesus Christ and His Blessed Mother, Mary, Defense of the Faith and Holy Mother the Church and the protection of those unable to protect themselves.
Manitoba District is composed of 13 Assemblies and almost 1100 Sir Knights.
We invite our Third Degree Brothers to join us for our next Exemplification. Speak to your Grand Knight or a Fourth Degree Member today.
