Knights of columbus

     
1-Who are the Knights of Columbus?

On Oct. 2, 1881, a group of men led by Father Michael J. McGivney, the founder of this order, formed a fraternal society from St. Mary’s Church in New Haven, Connecticut. Today, this order has become the world’s largest Catholic family fraternal service organization. These men were devoted to a holy cause: to defend their country, their families, and their faith. These men were bound by the ideal of Christopher Columbus who brought Christianity to this New World. They have become “the Knights of Columbus”.
The Knights of Columbus is officially chartered as a fraternal benefit society. Its founding principles are: charity, unity, and fraternity. The Order has been called "the strong right arm of the Church," and has been praised especially by popes, for support of the Church and aid to those in need.
