Who We Are

The Saint Ambrose Assembly #3105 was chartered on April 3, 2008 in the Brunswick in the Cleveland/Youngstown District of the Hennepin Province of the Knights of Columbus.

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 our country through active membership in local Fourth Degree groups (called "assemblies"). Certain members of our assembly serve as honor guards at civic and religious functions, an activity that has brought worldwide recognition to the Knights of Columbus.

Our assembly meets at St. Ambrose Catholic Church, 929 Pearl Road, Brunswick, OH 44212.  We meet on the 3rd Thursday of the month in Lehner Center with the officers meeting at 6:45pm and the general membership at 7:30pm.

"SIR KNIGHT" IS MORE THAN A TITLE - IT'S AN HONOR.

For most men who follow Jesus, there comes a time when duty extends beyond our own lives, beyond how we lead our families, and into how we serve our fellow man.  That's what the Knights of Columbus is all about.  And for those who are called to take it one step further, the Fourth Degree is the way.

Fourth Degree Knights are dedicated to the personal development and continued honor of brother Knights.  We are always there to offer leadership, guidance, and encouragement - whether it is through educational programs or honoring those who are no longer with us.  Fourth Degree Knights are integral to the preservation of the Order.

Fourth Degree Knights glorify God by serving our communities and nations as though Christ were the one being served.  We foster patriotism by teaching personal responsibility in civic affairs, working to honor and protect symbols of national pride, honoring our veterans for their service and sacrifice, and facilitating voter turnout on election days.  Finally, Fourth Degree Knights maintain a leadership role on important moral issues, recognizing that what a man stand for, defines him.

We are in a time when too few Christians are prepared to speak up for what they believe.  Fourth Degree Knights hold unwaveringly to what is right and honorable.  This means working to keep God in the civic arena.  It means supporting and defending laws that recognize the sanctity of life and true religious liberty.  And, of course, serving the life of the Church.  Fourth Degree Knights are committed to building lives of character.

The Color Corps is an elective division of the Fourth Degree, whose distinctive presence in parades, wreath-laying ceremonies, and Catholic functions is a visible reminder of our service to the community.  Color Corps members wear the colors with pride and honor, knowing they represent the very best of the Knights of Columbus.

The need for strong role models has never been greater.  If the sanctity of life, family values, and true religious freedom are to survive, democratic nations need greater commitment from people of faith.  That's what the Fourth Degree represents.  We are the pinnacle of Knighthood.  We live, serve, and protect the Truth.

If you've been a member of the Knights of Columbus for at least one year, and are a Third Degree Knight in good standing, it's time for you to consider reaching even further with your faith.  It is time to consider the Fourth Degree.
