The parish is the center of faith life.  Our founder, Father Michael McGivney, wanted Knights of Columbus in every parish.  They would provide manpower, fundraising and family events.  Knights also support vocations and Catholic education.

Some parishes have their own small Knights of Columbus council.  Large councils often serve several parishes, linking resources through a network of parish Round Tables.

A pastor establishes the Round Table. He appoints a chairman and establishes tasks. Knights in the parish coordinate by email or Tweets (rather than hold meetings).

The Marian Council vigorously supports many parishes:
