St. Mary's
Council 4065 Columbiettes--a united international
organization of Catholic women dedicated to our
Patroness, Blessed Virgin Mary, St Theresa the Little
Flower, and St. Joan of Arc are comprised of affiliated
auxiliaries of the Knights of Columbus.
Founded in 1939--Monsignor J. Francis McIntyre, at that
time Chaplain of NY Chapter Knights of Columbus,
conceived the idea of a ladies organization to work with
the Knights of Columbus. On March 2, 1939 the first
Columbiettes were instituted in NYC to promote the
spiritual, social and charitable welfare of our members,
safeguarding the religious, civil and economic right of
all Catholics as we rely upon the intercession of Mary,
our Mother and model for guidance as we give assistance
to the Knights of Columbus.
We hold various fund raises throughout the year to
support our programs and to enable us to give to local
charities.
Membership is open to all Catholic women over the age of
17
