Msgr.
Lenihan Council 5544 was founded in 1964. It is named after Monsignor Daniel
J. Lenihan, who had served the Knights of Columbus on both state and local
levels, and he also served in World War I as a military chaplain. He was a
long time pastor here in Cedar Rapids, and assisted in acquiring the land
where St. Jude Church is now erected. Known to be a determined man, he
strongly promoted growth here in the Northwest side of the city. The Msgr.
Lenihan Council 5544 works closely with the St. Judes Parish in Cedar Rapids,
providing funds for various projects, members being active participants in
their parish. etc.
