Knights of Columbus

The original St. Leander Council of the Knights of Columbus was founded as
Council 3637 on May 31, 1953. The Council was active and supported
St. Leander Church activities until the leadership passed away. The first
Grand Knight was Alex Lacharite and the Advocate Chaplain was Fr. Philip
J. Ryan.

In 2010, Manuel Diaz renewed interest in the Knights of Columbus at St. Leander
and a new Council, St. Leander Council 16028 was formed. The Council supports Church activities including serving at Masses, serving on parish boards and assisting with fundraising activities for the parish and school.
