"Our Beginnings; A Sanctuary
In the late 19th century, North America was experiencing an influx of people from
all over the world, particularly Europe. Many people were relegated to living
in unsanitary conditions, and performing hazardous jobs for poor pay. Such was
life for Catholics in New Haven, Connecticut. The untimely death of the family
breadwinner often devastated a family. In 1882, a young Catholic priest, Father
Michael J. McGivney, curate at St. Mary’s Church in New Haven, envisioned an organization
to help Catholic families deal with this crisis. Out of his vision the Knights
of Columbus was founded. We are currently the largest Catholic, family, fraternal
organization in the world, and boast a members-only insurance program that is
among the strongest in the industry. Continue on to find out more about our insurance
and membership programs."(Supreme Council Web Page) Click
