The Knights of Columbus

Picture
The Knights are the largest lay Catholic family service organization in the world. They were established by the Venerable Fr. Michael J. McGivney, a Catholic priest in St. Mary’s parish in New Haven, CT in 1882.  Guided  by  the principles of: charity, unity, fraternity and patriotism, members work to strengthen their families, their faith, and their parish community.

The Msgr Furtado Council  meets on the first Tuesday of the month in the Parish Center at 6:30 pm.
 
Any Catholic man at least 18 years of age is invited to join in the charitable works to build up the parish community. 

To learn more about the Knights of Columbus visit their National Web page.

The head Knight in our Parish is Michael Pasternak. For more information about the Knights contact Michael through the Parish Office.
