Fourth
Degree
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").
Our council sponsored assembly is Father Gerard E. Powers Assembly. 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.
Columbiettes
The Columbiettes' main function is to SUPPORT the men
and the council. They do this primarily by providing
help at events, cooking for events and providing monetary
help. They also generally do help with setting up and
beautifying the hall for events.
