About  the Knights of Columbus

The Knights of Columbus is a global fraternity of Catholic men, founded in 1882 by Father Michael McGivney. The organization began as a mutual aid society for working class men, often of immigrant backgrounds, and has since grown to encompass a variety of programs serving local communities and forming men in the Catholic faith.

Council 17027 is the local chapter of the Knights of Columbus serving the Saint Stanislaus parish of Nashua, New Hampshire.

Our parish was established in 2016 by Bishop Peter Libasci as a personal parish served by the Fraternal Society of Saint Peter. With His Excellency’s permission, we worship daily according to the Tridentine Rite, which was practiced as the typical Roman rite around the world until the 1960’s, and is today known colloquially as “The Latin Mass”.

Our Knights are proud to support the flourishing community of Saint Stanislaus Parish and our neighbors in the city of Nashua and beyond.
