Knights of Columbus Hollywood Council 2406 Index

The Knights of Columbus is the world's largest Catholic family fraternal service organization with 1.6 million members. It provides members and their families with volunteer opportunities in service to the Catholic Church, their communities, families and young people.

As a member of the Knights of Columbus you and your family enjoy many benefits, including 12 free issues annually of the Columbia magazine, the world's largest Catholic family magazine, eligibility to join the Knights of Columbus top-ranked life insurance program, and many more family and personal benefits.

For those who live in Los Angeles and the surrounding communities of Silverlake, West Hollywood, Mid Wilshire, Los Feliz and Hollywood just north of downtown Los Angeles, Hollywood Council 2406 is YOUR local Council. Those men you see at Mass on Sunday mornings probably are Knights. Come and join them and be part of the : Church Activities, Youth Activities, Family Activities, Community Service and Council Activities of your council.

Membership in the Knights of Columbus is open to practicing Catholic men in union with the Holy See, who are at least 18 years old. A practicing Catholic is one who lives up to the Commandments of God and the precepts of the Church. Application blanks are available from any member of the Knights of Columbus.

Any Third Degree member in good standing, one year after the anniversary of his First Degree, is eligible for membership in the Fourth Degree. 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 the Knights' respective countries through active membership in local Fourth Degree groups (called "assemblies"). Certain members of the Fourth Degree serve as honor guards at civic and religious functions, an activity that has brought worldwide recognition to the Knights of Columbus.

Under the guidance of Christian Brother Barnabas McDonald (1865-1929), the first Columbian Squires circle was instituted in 1925. Membership in the Squires is for Catholic boys between the ages of 12 and 17. Squires' activities are many, varying from spiritual to active service for the Church and community. Each circle elects officer members from their own rank, teaching skills of leadership and responsibility.

The Hollywood Council 2406 has sponsored a Columbian Squires Circle in the past. The Columbian Squires are the Catholic youth program of the Knights of Columbus.

The Ladies of the Council main function is to support the men and the council. They do this primarily by providing help at events, cooking for events and providing monetary help. They also generally help with setting up and decorating, thus beautifying our hall for council social events for which we thank them.

The Catholic Daughters of America is the ladies organization who is active in our council area. The purposes of the organization are to participate in the religious, charitable and educational Apostolates of the Church. Catholic Daughters of the Americas engages in creative and spiritual programs which provide its members with the opportunity to develop their God-given talents in meaningful ways that positively influence the welfare of the Church and all people throughout the world. Catholic Daughters of the Americas strives to embrace the principal of faith through love in the promotion of justice, equality and the advancement of human rights and human dignity for all
