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. Recruitment in our Council draws primarily from St. Peter's, Our Lady of Victory (Gabriola Island) and St. Michael's Ukrainian parishes.

Joining online takes only a few minutes. Prefer to talk to someone first? Contact our Membership Chairman, Brother Brian King (250-591-4223).
