Social Communications General Principles• Remember that the Laws of the Knights of

Columbus apply to social communications.• Read and follow the terms of use of the website or

social media site you are using.• Know your privacy settings. Check and re-check

your privacy settings frequently.• Remember that social communications are not a

replacement for in-person human interaction.• Prayerfully consider how you conduct yourself in

the use of online social communications.• Use prudent judgment and practice Christian

charity.29

04/13/2023

General Principles• Honor human dignity and maintain a culture of respect, dialogue,

and friendship in social communications.• Understand that social communication is a dialogue, not a

monologue.• Listen to what others are saying and then respond.• Be polite and respectful of others’ opinions, especially when you

find yourself in disagreement, and even in times of heated discussion and debate.

• Think before you post! The reputation of the Knights of Columbus as well as your own reputation depends upon you conducting yourself as a Catholic gentlemen, both online and offline. What you post is forever. Do not share something online that you might later regret or would otherwise not want the entire world to know. Ask yourself, ”am I pleasing God by posting this?”, would I want my mother to see this?”, or would I want to read about this on the front page of the morning paper?”

30

04/13/2023

General Principles• Do not pick a fight. Be the first to acknowledge and

correct your own mistakes. Apologize when you are wrong and seek forgiveness.

• Use discretion and resolve disputes and controversies privately and/ or offline.

• Be honest and transparent.• Do not post hateful, defamatory, pornographic

content, which is offensive to human dignity and Christian charity.

• Respect privacy, trademarks, copyright and other applicable laws posting content in social communications.

Guidance for Members1. When you discuss KC-related matters in social communications,

identify yourself by name, council name and number and your role if necessary.

2. When identifying yourself as Knight in social communications, check that your profile and related content reflects the Catholic identity and mission of the KC.

3. Be sure that any information you share is confirmed, verified, factually accurate and complies with the laws, official policies, programs, and or initiatives of KC.

4. Do not download digital images of the trademarked name and emblem of the Knights of Columbus from the Supreme Council website to your personal profile or postings online without express authorization. Instead simply like or otherwise link to Supreme Council / Luzon social media sites and or other official Knights of Columbus websites, which will signal your association with the Knights of Columbus by in most cases, causing the name and emblem of the Knights of Columbus to appear on your website or social media site.

SynthesisThese Social Communications are powerful tools

that, when used in light of the Catholic Faith and the principles of the Knights of Columbus, can build up the Order encouraging its members to do charitable works and supporting its members in their roles as sons, fathers, husbands and Catholic men. Members and subordinate units should attract membership by publicizing the many good works of the Knights of Columbus and Columbian Squires using social communications.

44

04/13/2023

Let us get fully involved in the digital world and use social media effectively in proclaiming the word of God in today’s generation.

We have to be online missionaries and to be role models in the proclamation of the word. We have to be cautious in uttering statements and be role models not just in action but also in words, for words are very powerful.
