Thanks to the efforts of Father Michael J. McGivney, assistant pastor of St. Mary’s Church in New Haven 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.
If you are interested in learning more or joining our local Knights of Columbus chapter please contact one of our council members below.
Regular monthly meetings are held on the first Monday of each month excluding July, August and December.
