Brothers in Christ..

The Knights of Columbus Dumaguete Cathedral Council 3938 we encourage you to join and to become a part of our knighthood order. As long as you have a full commitment to serve our church and state through these four principles of our order which is CHARITY, UNITY, FRATERNITY and PATRIOTISM.

What is Knights of Columbus?

The Knights of Columbus is a Global Catholic Fraternal Organization that was founded on March 29, 1882 at the basement of Saint Mary's Church New Haven Connecticut, USA by Blessed Fr. Michael Joseph McGiveny. The reason why our order was founded is to help the widow and their children of the deceased breadwinner because of the dangerous factory work industry during the 19th Century through mutual aid fund and spiritual life and also to avoid some Catholic Gentleman to join the Secret Fraternal Society who are anti clerical, anti ecclesiastical and anti moral. And now our order was led by our 14th Supreme Knight Bro. Patrick E. Kelly and Supreme Chaplain Archbishop William E. Lorri.

What are the requirements to become a Knight?

*Must be men at least 18 years old and above
*A Practicing Catholic in the union of the Holy See.
*Accept the teaching authority of the Catholic Church in terms of Faith and Morals.
