The Knights of Columbus is the world's largest Catholic family fraternal service organization with 1.7 million members. It provides members and their families with volunteer opportunities in service to the Catholic Church, their communities, families and young people.

As a member of the Knights of Columbus you and your family enjoy many benefits, including 12 free issues annually of the Columbia magazine, the world's largest Catholic family magazine, eligibility to join the Knights of Columbus top-ranked life insurance program, and many more family and personal benefits.

At St. Andrew Council of the Rosary we place a strong emphasis on fraternal activities. Our members often socialize outside of official Knights of Columbus events. We are still a young and growing council. New members are welcomed with open arms.

Membership in the Knights of Columbus is open to practicing Catholic men in union with the Holy See, who are at least 18 years old. A practicing Catholic is one who lives up to the Commandments of God and the precepts of the Church.

Applications for membership are avaialble from any member of the Knights of Columbus, or by calling Grand Knight Francis Langlois at 613-219-0923, or by email at kofc13416@gmail.com.

 
Any Third Degree member in good standing, one year after the anniversary of his First Degree, is eligible for membership in the Fourth Degree. The primary purpose of the Fourth Degree is to foster the spirit of patriotism by promoting responsible citizenship and a love of and loyalty to the Knights' respective countries through active membership in local Fourth Degree groups (called "assemblies"). Certain members of the Fourth Degree serve as honor guards at civic and religious functions, an activity that has brought worldwide recognition to the Knights of Columbus.  For example, in the photo
at the top of the page Sir Knight's Robert Rochford and Barry Houle are seen
in procession at the wedding of Brother Knight Joe Vautour.

Our Fourth Degree Asembly, Fr R.L. Reynolds Assembly 1670, meets at St. Elizabeth Church on the 1st Wednesday of the month.
