St. Wendelin Council 17025<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Knights of Columbus was founded in 1882 by Fr. Michael McGivney as a method to support families during times of need. Fr. McGivney, now Blessed Michael McGivney is presently one step from Sainthood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This Council was founded in May of 2018 to support our families, the church, and the community. The first Grand Knight was Henry (Hank) Kohorst. Hank, along with Fr. Ron Weyrens and Gary Maus were the impetus in starting the council. The founding members are listed on the Council Charter, located in the foyer area of Mary Hall.
