Welcome!

The Knights of Columbus have been in Rochester for over a century and form a vital part of the community. Our councils are each affiliated with a parish in the city. Council contacts can be found on the map below.

If you are a visitor, we welcome you to Rochester. Please feel free to contact the councils in the area or attend any of our sponsored events. If you are moving into the area we encourage you to contact your local council to transfer your membership.
