The Knights of Columbus has grown from several members in one council in 1882, to 15,342 councils and 1.9 million members throughout the United States, Canada, the Philippines, Mexico, Poland, the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, Panama, the Bahamas, the Virgin Islands, Cuba, Guatemala, Guam, Saipan, Lithuania, Ukraine, and South Korea.

Our principles are charity, unity, fraternity and patriotism; charity being the first and foremost principle. We have international charitable partnerships with Special Olympics, the Global Wheelchair Mission, Habitat for Humanity, and many other KofC national level charitable projects. Here in Niceville, our local council supports food for families, Habitat for Humanity, our Parish ministries and activities, youth programs and scholarships, campaign for people with intellectual disabilities, culture of life activities, and more.

Unless otherwise posted, the Council’s General Assembly convenes on the first Thursday of each month at 7:00 PM and the Executive Committee meets on the fourth Thursday of each month at 6:00 PM. Both meetings are conducted in the Christ Our Redeemer Parish Hall.

Fourth Degree members of our Council 13527, Niceville Council 7667 and Destin Council 11893 comprise Assembly 3236.

The Fourth Degree Assembly convenes on the third Thursday of each month at 7 PM, alternating meeting locations between Christ Our Redeemer Parish (even months) and Holy Name of Jesus Parish (odd months).

We are men of action in charity and in our Holy Faith. With as few as 24 hours a year, a Catholic man can contribute to our worthy goals and receive the many fraternal benefits of our order.
