K. of C. > Fourth Degree Sir Knights > Color Corps
Padre Pio Assembly #2247



Color Corps

When knighthood was in flower, knights carried the sword to defend their God, their Church, their country and their fellow man according to the code of chivalry. Today, Sir Knights wear regalia and carry the sword to honor Christ and His apostles, especially on religious and civic occasions. Hence, the primary purpose of the Fourth Degree is to encourage active Catholic citizenship and foster the spirit of patriotism in members and the community at large.

Any Third Degree Brother Knight in good standing who has been a member for at least six months may take their Fourth Degree and join the Color Corps ranks.
