Knights in Action

As Knights, it is our obligation to serve the needs of the Church; it is of paramount importance to strengthen the foundation of Catholic principles and teachings in the hearts and minds of the people we serve, especially the youth. The Order encourages all Brother Knights to get involved in ministry.
