Knights of Columbus

Thanks to the efforts of Father Michael J McGivney, assistant pastor of St. Mary's Church in New Haven, CT and some of his parishioners,

the Connecticut state legislature on March 29, 1882, officially chartered the Knights of Columbus as a fraternal benefit society.

The Order is still true to its founding principles of charity, unity and fraternity.
We encorage you to visit our website often and review the many charitable and service programs and activities of our Council.  You might also get a better feel for how the Knights of Columbus has served those in need.
