1. History of the Knights of the Blessed Sacrament

Archdiocese of San Fernando
San Fernando, Pampanga

The history of the Knights of the Blessed Sacrament formally started when Fr. Constancio R.
Panlilio, then the Dean of Discipline and at the same Professor of the Mater Boni Consilii
Seminary was assigned as the personal secretary and Vice Chancellor of the Diocese of San
Fernando in October 1958, He is an attaché to the Cathedral while having residence at the
Bishop’s Palace in San Jose. He is also the Master of Ceremonies at the Cathedral and Seminary.

Being the Official second Master of Ceremonies of the Diocese, he saw the need of an organized
group of Mass Servers. There were volunteer boys who are either taught by the Sacristan Mayor
of the Parish Priest himself but in most parishes they have paid servers known as sacristan. There
are organization for the old men and women like the Holy Name Society, the Catholic Women
League, the Adoracion Nocturna, the Senior Legion of Mary and there is one organization for
young girls known as the Sodality or Children of Mary but there is none for the boys. Hence, the
need for such a group.

To distinguish the group from the paid servers, sacristan, it needs a dignified name. There are
Altar Boys of Knights of the Altar in America and in Europe. Research was made from books
and pamphlets, personal observations around the world were done. An experimental set of rules
and regulations was set up and applied experimentally with a group of around fifteen boys at the
Cathedral and at the Bishop’s Palace. They studied and memorized the rules and they practice
weekly on how to serve at different functions even at the Pontifical Masses. The good behavior
of the Charter members attracted the attention of other boys, so that by December 8,1958 the first
Induction and Reception was made at the 10 o’clock Mass at the Cathedral. At first, there is no
Lay Apostolate Director but just Fr. Panlilio handling everything from the set of rules, the
uniform, the rituals, etc. Discipline is inculcated and constant guidance was set up so that the boy
is watch at home by the parents, in school by his teacher and in church by Fr. Panlilio.
Documents have to be signed by the parent, the teacher [homeroom teacher] and the boy himself
which become part of his permanent record with the organization.

The Knights of the Blessed Sacrament was finally chosen though it started with the KOA
[Knights of the Altar] so as to pins as an identifying insignia. This is an organization of young
men from age ten up to adulthood as long as he remains single dedicated to the service of God
through the ministration of the priest when dispensing with the sacraments and in offering the
Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. In the course of fifteen years by trials and error, the rules were
perfected together with the three distinctive ceremonies, namely, Installation of Officers,
#OFFICIALBLUEBOOK

Reception of Neophyte, and the Induction to Higher degrees. The discipline in the organization
makes it such that if the boy stays with the organization in two years, he will be molded into a
good Christian and a loyal citizen of the country. It has four degrees which are a challenge to the
character formation of the boy, self discipline, and learns how to challenge himself in his daily
work.

From the Cathedral, other parishes asked Fr. Panlilio to start the organization in their places. The
first outreach program was done in Sta. Monica, Mexico, with the group of Fr. Len Flores as the
first batch, then Guagua when the late Msgr. Ben Henson was the curate, the one at G.N.C did
not flourish because there was no Lay Apostolate Director trained to take care of it. Angeles
followed during the time of Msgr. Serafin Ocampo, and this continued till around thirty parishes
were reached. A monthly meeting for all Knight Commanders was organized to have control of
the organization. At first, there was stiff opposition in some parishes due to their ignorance about
the aims and ideals of the KBS. We have to emphasize that this is the Knight does not receive
pay or any monetary remuneration from his service individually. Whatever is given has to be
surrendered to the Master Burser, the treasurer, as property of the order.

By 1960, the first assembly was made to create the Federation of the Knights of the Blessed
Sacrament. Twenty four member Regiments were presented and SK Benjie Garcia was the first
appointed Lay Apostolate Director while the Knight Commander of the Cathedral Regiment was
elected the first Primatus, SK Antonio Chan. Knight Mario Santos was chosen the first Knight of
the Year. The meetings of the Federation is always at the Chancery (Bishop’s Private Chapel).
An annual retreat was introduced and seminar for the Knight Commanders became a regular
yearly affair.

It became apparent that the meetings for Saturday and Sunday became necessary, the Saturday
meeting is for practice for serving while the Sunday meeting is for Study on the Rules,
Regulations and Custom of the KBS. The Master of Neophytes were given special lecture for
their duties and responsibilities. Friendly games called “Intramurals” were conducted as part of
the training on camaraderie and sportsmanship. This eventually evolved into the Sportsfest
which is conducted annually and the Tuklas Talino held every year.

By the seventies, the Rules and Regulations were formally printed and used all over the Diocese
up to the present. The prescribed uniform for all Knights is emphasized and specification for the
banner was determined. This was patterned after the CONSOMOL flags of the German youth of
Hitler. They are larger and longer than the usual flags.

Since it was found out that each parish has its peculiar rules as deemed proper by each parish
priest, the rules became a sort of guideline which could be adjusted to the discretion of the
#OFFICIALBLUEBOOK

incumbent parish priest in a given parish. Even the idea of the Federation was changed. The idea
is like the Federation of the different states of the USA. Each parish has its own set of
government and follows the general rules for all Knights. They just affiliate with the Federation
for guidance and solidarity.

By the eighties some members of the Knights became the Apostolate Lay Director and most of
them are already professionals and some are even married but they still remain loyal to the aims
and ideals of KBS. Some of the Honorary members those who have graduated from college or
have gotten married are the most rabid in spreading the organization even as far as Bataan,
Nueva Ecija, and Tarlac. At last the KBS has reached the fullness of maturity. Despite its
growth, it has not been recognized as it should by the Archdiocese. Its help and its value as a
source of vocations to the priesthood has never been appreciated.

In the nineties, there is need for the revision of its Rules and Regulations as well as the need for
the full development of the separate set of Rules and guidelines for the Federation. A new
concept was born regarding the establishment of the Federation Knights members and the
creation of the College of Lay Apostolate Directors for most of them now are former Knight
Commanders or Honorary Members. With the present Archdiocesan Lay Apostolate Director,
the move is veering more on the logistics and trend of the Boy Scouts just like the Altar Boys of
America was, in yester years. While before everything comes from the head of the founder and
still present Archdiocesan Spiritual Director now the work is distributed among the different
Commissions of the Federation manned by former Knights now Lay Apostolate Directors. But
still the trademark of its founder, the Panlilian Spirituality is still much evident in the
organization. Despite the different organizations among the youth he will continue blessing it
fervently so that it may achieve its purpose of spreading the Word of God among the youth and
in forbearing, planting and nurturing vocations to the Priesthood.
