The Knights of Columbus have a rich history since their founding in 1882 by Fr. Michael J. McGivney, in New Haven, CT. Fr. McGivney was instrumental in creating an insurance program to help families and an order of members to do charitable works in the community for the honor and glory of God. The Fr. Ryan Council moved to St. Thecla in 2001.
