Knights of Columbus - Virgilius Council 185
 

Website: http://www.kofc185.com/

 

The Knights of Columbus is the world's largest lay Catholic family service organization. Founded by a parish priest, Blessed Father Michael J. McGivney, curate of Saint Mary's in New Haven and a small band of lay men in 1882 as an organization to help families with the day to day challenges of their time.

The Knights of Columbus have grown today to a global organization with more than 1.8 million members doing charitable deeds in 14,000 councils. We welcome Catholic gentlemen of all ages upon their 18th birthday.

At Saint Rose of Lima, we have one of the fastest growing council's in Connecticut, you can find out more, or join by contacting Grand Knight Tim Reilly at trederbros@aol.com or Membership Director Patrick Burke at marine.burke@gmail.com

We meet on the first Thursday of every month during the school year. Vivat Jesus!
