The Catholic family communicates the moral way of life that consists in following Jesus. Through faith, the Catholic family becomes a special communion of persons on a journey with him, a journey that is both moral and personal. The role of parents in leading the Catholic family is to educate their children in the Catholic way of life. The Knights of Columbus knows this truth. It is one reason why family activities throughout the year are so important. Activities such as corporate communions, rosaries and family picnics all highlight the special fraternity and the special community to which the Catholic family is called. These activities strengthen the bonds that hold families together at a time when too many social forces work to loosen them. They help create a strong and positive sense of Catholic identity among our children at a time when many social forces work to blur distinctions between believers and the larger, secular society. Family participation in our many Knights of Columbus family-centered activities is one of the best ways to foster the type of Catholic identity that will enable our youth to make the tough moral decisions society is forcing upon them in a way consistent with Church teaching. Join us in celebration of faith, family and fraternity.
