Read the incredible story of the Order – putting faith into action for nearly 140 years

Dear Brother Knight, If you are looking for something good to read, The Knights of Columbus: An Illustrated History is the book for you. Words and pictures combine to tell the incredible story of the Order, which has been putting faith into action for nearly 140 years. From Knights’ work in World War I and the Spanish Flu pandemic, to more recent work around the world – from Haiti to the Middle East – the Knights of Columbus has been an immense force for good. Never has the story of our Order been so accessibly or beautifully presented. You can purchase the book online – find it at Amazon, Unison Books and Barnes and Noble today.

And the reviews are in! The American Library Association’s Booklist notes that the book “is chock-a-block with archival photographs and documents, with luminaries called ‘notable knights’ featured on many pages.” It adds that “readers … will find much to enjoy.” Kirkus Reviews calls it: “A richly illustrated and entertaining history of the Knights of Columbus”  . . . and adds that it is “an approachable, worthwhile history of a venerable Catholic brotherhood.”

ORDER TODAY at Amazon, Unison Books or Barnes and Noble.

Hello Brother Knights,

Attached is the wheel chair ramp that John Tieskotter along with council 15878 out of Mansfield completed on Saturday. It was for a fellow knight that was in need of this ramp due to recent health issues. 

I want to thank John Tieskotter and the Knights of council 15878 and congratulate them all on a job well done. God Bless you all.
