Announcement
Officers meetings are conducted virtually over Zoom until further notice.
Did you know that many children throughout the United States and Canada go without a coat each winter? Low-income families use their scarce resources to meet the most basic needs and cannot always afford this vital winter necessity. That’s why the Knights of Columbus developed the Coats for Kids program, which allows councils across North America the opportunity to put their faith into action and purchase new winter coats at a discount for children in need in their communities.
Beginning in 2018, we began to sponsor complimentary Coffee and Cookies in our church. This program is intended to help build relationship among St.Benedict's parishoners.
Installation Ceremony for Officers 2019-2020, this ceremony was held on Oct 06, 2019.
Knights of Columbus was established due to the efforts of Father Michael J. McGivney, assistant pastor of St. Mary’s Church in New Haven on March 29, 1882, and it was officially chartered the Knights of Columbus as a fraternal benefit society. The Order is based on its founding principles of charity, unity and fraternity.
I am always grateful for the good works that different groups in our parish offer to our community but in a special way, I would like to thank the good work of the Knights of Columbus.
