The Knights of Columbus is a Roman Catholic fraternal organization, named in honor of Christopher Columbus. Its membership is open to male "practical Catholics in communion with the Holy See," age 18 and over. The principles of the Order are Charity, Unity, Fraternity, and Patriotism. Though not under direct control of the Catholic Church, the Knights support the Church enthusiastically, being called the "strong right arm of the Church." There are more than 1.7 million members worldwide in more than 14,000 councils.
The Knights of Columbus was founded by a Catholic priest, Father Michael J. McGivney in New Haven, Connecticut on February 2, 1882, and incorporated under the laws of Connecticut on March 29, 1882. Though the first councils were all in New England, the Order soon spread throughout the United States in the following years. Today the Order has active councils in the United States, Canada, Mexico, the Philippines, and most recently in Poland.
Sacred Heart Council #4402 TheSacred Heart Council #4402 of Centereach, Long Island, New York is an active group of knights. We support local nursing homes and many different institutions. We distribute holiday food baskets to the needy, sponsor parties for the handicapped and participate in different programs to helpthe young the old and the needy in our community.
Each of us, as members of the Knights of Columbus, has devoted his life to God and the Church. For the most part, that is why we joined the Knights. It is through following the precepts of the Church, and the Commandments of God that we act out the ideals of charity, unity, fraternity and patriotism, which forms the degrees of our order. In charity we perform the seven spiritual works of mercy, and the seven corporal works of mercy, and try to avoid the seven deadly sins. This is our priority. This is the good of the order. As Catholic Knights we should always remember this and keep it as our prime motivation. Let us remember what we stand for and not let our "Good of the Order "become more order" centered, than "'Good" centered.When we put our titles and offices above doing the actual work they represent and require, we are not doing "the good of the order". Our Lord said, “the first shall be last and the last shall be first," and "let the right hand not know what the left hand is doing." When the politics of our order become more important to us than the actual work, we are in trouble. Feed the hungry, clothed the naked, visit the sick, inform the ignorant, bury the dead.
The true spirit and essance of Father McGivney's philosophy is sustained by these committed men.
