Strong Foundation and Conviction

We are Knights, Men committed to acting on our faith and helping the world. Men whose strong dedication to serving the Church is rooted in our Order’s humble beginnings. When Father Michael J. McGivney invited a few parishioners to gather in the basement of St. Mary’s Church in New Haven, Connecticut, his hope was to unite men in their faith and provide for Catholic families in times of need. Guided by four core principles-charity, unity, fraternity, and patriotism-other Catholic men soon followed suit and helped lay the foundation that has allowed the Order to flourish.

The Knights of Columbus is an active volunteer organization that raises awareness for needy causes and generates much needed funds to support a variety of charitable activities, including support of local parishes, renovation of churches, and building of Catholic schools and seminaries. The members of Transfiguration Council 10362 have volunteered thousands of hours and raised thousands of dollars-all with the intent to benefit our church and our charities.

Today, the Knights of Columbus is the largest Catholic service organization in the world. WE ARE NOT COMPLACENT IN THAT FACT. In fact, we are tireless in our search for the next generation of Knights. Men of character and conviction who are driven by their faith and conscience to selflessly serve their families, Church, and communities.

As a Knight, YOU can make an impact through enduring faith and unfaltering fellowship. Knowing that one man can make a difference because one Man already has.
