Knights of Columbus Ohio State Council

Blessed McGivney Icon

In celebration of the 125th Anniversary of the Ohio State Council, State Deputy Jeff Kiliany and the State Officers commissioned the Blessed McGivney Icon. This icon has various depictions of the Knights of Columbus from Supreme and Ohio history that made our Order what it is today. Founder of the Knights of Columbus presents a frontal image of him dressed in modern vestments. Bl. Father McGivney has entered eternity; he is no longer limited by time or place in his appearance or aid to us.

OUR HISTORY

Service and charity are at the heart of the Knights. Founded to meet the needs of immigrants, refugees and families suffering from the death of a breadwinner, the Knights began as a small service organization and has grown into a worldwide financial and charitable organization.

JOIN US

FAITH IN ACTION PROGRAMS

Lead your family and community in faith and service through our local councils’ programs.

FAITH

Our goal is to strengthen men and their families in the Catholic faith. Formation in our faith goes beyond mere facts or religious practice to an authentic connection with a loving God and his son Jesus Christ.

FAMILY

Father McGivney sought to strengthen the bonds of families in his parish and the Knights of Columbus. These programs, created for families by families, help us to live this call.

COMMUNITY

Knights are called to serve others. Our first principle is Charity – at home with our families and in our communities. When Knights of Columbus members come together they accomplish great things.
