Since 1957, Council 112's hall has been
located in a former Lutheran church at the intersections of Bradley and
Penacook Streets in Concord, New Hampshire. It was purchased by PGK Thomas
M. Degnan, with the support of the membership. The Grand Knight for
2006-2007 is Keith Thibeault. You can contact the Knights by phone at
(603) 228-8927, or by email at info@kofc112.org.
Officer meetings are held on the first Monday of each
month. Business meetings are held at the council hall on the second Monday
at 7:00 PM. A monthly social dinner is hosted at the hall on the fourth
Monday of the month at 6:00 PM.
| Council #112 traces its
origins back to March 17, 1895 when a group of thirty-nine
Catholic men from both St. John the Evangelist and Sacred Heart
parishes were granted a charter by the Knights of Columbus Supreme
Council. Dennis Donovan served for two years as the first Grand
Knight. The Council works closely in support of the
four parishes of Concord: St. John the Evangelist, St. Peter's,
Immaculate Heart of Mary and Sacred Heart - as well as a Carmelite
Monastery on Pleasant Street. Council 112 provides funds for various
projects such as memorials, CCD programs, scholarships for local
students, tournaments, communion breakfasts, Special Olympics,
cancer research, Operation Santa Claus, and visiting hospital
patients. Members are active participants in their respective
parishes as organists, cantors, lectors, ushers, teachers, and
Eucharistic Ministers. The Knights of Columbus is the world's largest Catholic lay organization, with more than 1.7 million members in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean, the Philippines and Poland. Last year, Knights donated more than $139 million and over 64 million hours of volunteer time to charity. If you would like a FREE Knights of Columbus desktop for your computer, click here.
