Welcome! The Knights of Columbus is the world's largest Catholic fraternal service organization. Founded by the Venerable Father Michael J. McGivney in New Haven, Connecticut, in 1882, it was named in honor of the mariner Christopher Columbus. Originally serving as a mutual Images & Videobenefit society to low-income immigrant Catholics, it developed into a fraternal benefit society dedicated to providing charitable services, promoting Catholic education and actively defending Catholicism in various nations.
The local council (#11606) was founded in 1995. We strive to support our priest and our parish through various work projects and fund-raising efforts.
If you are interested in learning more about the Knights of Columbus or would like to join this local council please contact Chris Garcia at cgar219@icloud.com
A scholarship fund has been created in memory of Eric Barbasso, a former parishioner and Knights of Columbus Brother and Grand Knight. Eric was deeply passionate about the Catholic faith and was dedicated to helping others learn and grow closer to Jesus Christ. He was a longtime volunteer in the parish RCIA program and volunteered many hours of his time helping older teens complete missed sacraments. Donations collected will be made available to registered parish families in need of support with faith formation registration fees, Catholic school tuition, Little Blessings Preschool assistance, and RCIA & Youth Formation program materials. Thank you for your support.
