Knights of Columbus

Father Michael J. McGivney founded the Knights of Columbus in 1882 at Saint Mary’s Catholic Church in New Haven, Connecticut.
His goal was simple: to establish an Order that would unite men and their families in their faith as well as help provide for Catholic families in times of need.
The Knights of Columbus are guided by four core principles:

CHARITY     UNITY     FRATERNITY     PATRIOTISM

Membership in the Knights of Columbus is available to men who have reached 18 years of age and are practicing Catholics, in union with the Holy See.
This means that an applicant or member accepts the authority of the Catholic Church on matters of faith and morals, and aspires to live in accord with the precepts of the Catholic Church.
