The Knights of Columbus Council #13408 is a fraternal organization comprised of Catholic men who are ages 18 and up and who come from all walks of life. Together, and with kindhearted assistance from their Ladies of the Knights, they work to serve and protect our faith community of St. Catherine of Siena Catholic Church, the Roman Catholic Diocese of Fort Worth, and the Holy Roman Catholic Church.

St. Catherine of Siena

A soul rises up, restless with tremendous desire for God's honor and the salvation of souls. St. Catherine dedicated her life to serving those in need. She served as a nurse in homes and hospitals, and looked out for the destitute. She spread her knowledge and love of God through her work and her writings. At the age of seven we are told that St. Catherine vowed her virginity to God. At eighteen, she received the Dominican habit. She then began to live in solitude and silence in her room, going out only for mass. But somewhere, somehow, in this silence she learned to read. This silence ended in 1368 in her "mystical espousal" to Christ, after which she suddenly rejoined her family at home and gave herself to the service of the poor and sick.
