OUR MISSION
Together, we’re empowering Catholic men to live their faith at home, in their parish, at work and in their community. OUR FAITH Our goal is to help men, their families and their parishes grow closer to Christ. Through our programs and resources, we provide opportunities to live and spread the Catholic faith. Charity is at the heart of our work and our faith - and it always has been. For the Knights of Columbus, charity means supporting a virtually boundless variety of Projects. We are here to build a daily bridge back to what matters, for our members and fellow Catholics. We come from many places, backgrounds, and stages in our lives, but we are all of one faith. Find out more about what we do. OUR HISTORY AND HERITAGE Founded on the principles of charity, unity and fraternity, the Knights of Columbus was established in 1882 by Father Michael J. McGivney, assistant pastor of St. Mary's Church in New Haven, Conn., and a group of parishioners. Their intent? To bring financial aid and assistance to the sick, disabled and needy members and their families. Today, Father McGivney is being considered for sainthood. |
