Our History

The Knights of Columbus is the largest Catholic fraternal service organization, standing for the four principles of charity, unity, fraternity and patriotism.

Waconia K of C Council #2506

Our Knights of Columbus Council #2506 was chartered on December 2, 1923. We have a long history of serving our families and community in Waconia and surrounding areas. Thanks to the men of faith back then for having the vision to come together with the mission of charity, fraternity, unity, and patriotism. We are honored to continue to serve in the tradition established by these men nearly a century ago in the name of Jesus Christ.

Among the parish initiatives supported by the Knights are the Respect Life Breakfast, Lent Fish Fry, Coats for Kids, Thanksgiving Turkey and Fixings, Gifts for Troops, Tootsie Roll Drive, Family Fun Respect Life Picnic, Free Throw Contest, and Keep Christ In Christmas Poster Contest.

The beneficiaries of the Knight’s volunteer work and fundraising include the, Enkrateia: House of Hope, Southwest Options for Women, Elevate Life, Love INC, St Joseph Catholic Community and St Joseph Catholic School, Special Olympics, Memorial Blood Center, and Waconia Food Shelf.

The Waconia Council’s general membership meetings are held the third Tuesday of the month
at 7:00 pm. Our Council meetings are held at the Parish Center in the lower level of St. Joseph Church except for the summer months (May – Sept) where we hold the Council meetings at Klein Drive Park (KC Park).
