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.

Fr. Patrick O’Kelley’s has been serving the Dearborn area parishes and communities for over fifty years. The council originally formed out of East Dearborn’s Bishop Foley Council where seven of its members felt a new West Dearborn council was needed on that side of town. In June of 1954, Knights of Columbus Council #3860 held its first meeting in the basement of Sacred Heart School. The founders chose to name the council after Fr. Patrick O’Kelley, a missionary priest who spread the gospel throughout Dearborn and much of Southeastern Michigan.We service five parishes in the Dearborn / Dearborn Heights Community
