The world’s largest Catholic family fraternal organization has begun a new initiative to recruit Catholic men to join its ranks using a new online site at http://www.knights.net to reach more prospects.   Combined with a new social media based outreach, the site focuses on four of the essential concerns of today’s Catholic men. 

Leading with Faith - highlights the resources available to members to encourage their spiritual development. 
Protecting your Family - offers options for considering long-term financial planning and critical protections for our loved ones. 
Serving Others - shows how members today make a real and lasting impact through our charitable service to address many of our communities in need.
Defending your Values – demonstrates the power of our voices united to stand up for faith-based principles that are under challenge in our society and culture.     

“This does not replace the personal invitation that members currently use to expand our Order’s impact,” says Douglas Oldmixon, State Deputy for the Knights in Texas. “It allows us to reach men we’ve not yet invited or who are in areas where we don’t yet have a strong presence.”         

To learn more about the Knights of Columbus, go online to http://www.knights.net or www.tkofc.org to see how we make a difference in our Church and communities today.
