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.
