Fr. Michael J. McGivney
On February 2, 1882, while an assistant pastor at Saint Mary's Church in New Haven, Connecticut, Fr. Michael J. McGivney founded the Knights of Columbus with a small group of parishioners. Fr. McGivney died from pneumonia on the eve of the Assumption in 1890, when he was only thirty-eight years old. The order now has over 1.7 million member families and thirteen thousand councils.
