St Patrick's of Smithtown
Knights of Columbus
Holy Mother Mary Concil No. 3958 Smithtown, NY
(Taken from the 2002
St. Patrick's 50th Anniversary Journal)
Knights of Columbus
Holy Mother Mary Concil No. 3958
Smithtown, NY
The Knights of Columbus, a fraternal order of Catholic men, was one of
the first parish organizations at St. Patrick's. Angelo
D'Alessandro was the driving force behind the formation of the Holy
Mother Mary Council No.3958 Knights of Columbus. The Council was
established in 1954 and chartered in 1955. Angelo served as the
first Grand Knight, and the first Chaplain was Father Adam Willman.
Initially the Council had members from Smithtown, Hauppauge, Stony
Brook, Commack, and Nissequogue, since many of the parishes in these
areas had yet to be formed. When chartered, the council included
50 members. Today, there are more than 300 members, fast
approaching 400.
The purpose of the Knights of Columbus is to bring Catholic gentlemen
together in a fraternal atmosphere for God, Church, and country, and to
assist, whenever possible, people in distress. Members of the
council meet twice each month at the Council House at 130 Lake Avenue
South in Nesconset. To become a Knight, members achieve different
degrees or steps, with emphasis on God and Church, in conjunction with
area councils.
The Holy Mother Mary Council sponsors the annual Memorial Day Parade in
Smithtown, holds fund raisers for families in need, sponsors the
Bishop's Smithtown Right to Life March and Breakfast, gives monetary
contributions to Seminarians, displays "Keep Christ in Christmas
" signs in Smithtown, awards scholarships for community service,
delivers food to St. John of God and St. Joseph parishes on a weekly
basis, provides breakfast to those going to Washington D.C. for the
Right to Life March, sponsors a substance abuse poster contest at St.
Patrick School, and much more. The Knights also assist in many
parish functions sponsored by the Church.
The Knights of Columbus also has an excellent insurance program that
brother Knights can participate in at a rate they can afford.
After the September 11 tragedy,the Knights came to the aid of many
families that suffered the loss of a loved one.
