There are four degrees within the Knights of Columbus.
Each degree ceremony imparts a lesson on the Order's core virtues of
Charity, Unity, Fraternity, and Patriotism.

Our Council welcomed five new Brothers during an Exemplification degree held on June 22, 2024. They were joined by new Brothers, one from Holy Childhood in Harbor Springs, and one from St Mary - Charlevoix. The degree was held after the 5pm Mass at St Matthew and was open to family and anyone else who wanted to stay to observe. Fr Dennis Stilwell presided as the Traveling Degree Team performed the Exemplification of Charity, Unity, and Fraternity. A casual reception was open to all after the ceremony to meet and congratulate the new members.
