Happy St. Patrick's Day

Happy St. Patrick's Day! ☘

Join us in saying this special prayer to this bold and courageous saint:

St. Patrick, faithful shepherd and fearless missionary,
Pray for us.
Help us to trust God in every season of life,
to turn to Him in prayer,
to be courageous in our witness,
and to share His love with those around us.
May we, like you, proclaim Christ with humility, joy, and confidence.
Amen.

To our Brother & Sir Knights, our friends and family, may this Christmas time be full of joy and hope! Merry Christmas! ...

148 years ago today, on Dec. 22, 1877, a young Michael McGivney was ordained a priest in Baltimore.

Formed at the first Catholic seminary in the United States and ordained in America’s first cathedral by Archbishop (later Cardinal) James Gibbons, Father McGivney stepped into ministry at a pivotal moment in our nation’s Catholic history.

Just days after his ordination, he returned home to Waterbury, Conn., to offer his first public solemn Mass for Christmas with his widowed mother in the pews.

From that humble beginning came a life of remarkable pastoral love, and, eventually, the founding of the Knights of Columbus. Today, we remember his priestly ‘yes’ and give thanks to God for the gift of Blessed Michael McGivney’s priesthood!

Vivat Jesus!

Happy first day of Advent! 🕯

Today, we light the first purple candle. Purple is the primary color of Advent, but also represents "royalty," fitting our anticipation and preparation for the birth of Christ the King.

💜Candle Name: Prophecy Candle
💜Representation: Hope
💜Scripture Reflection: "The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light; those who dwelt in a land of deep darkness, on them has light shined." Isaiah 9:2
💜Advent Wreath Prayer: "Dear Jesus, you are the hope in our messy world. This Advent, help us slow down, listen to your voice, and focus on what’s really important. We place our hope in you as we prepare our hearts to celebrate your birth on Christmas. Amen."

“Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; His steadfast love endures forever.”
— Psalm 118:1

May we pause with full hearts and remember the countless ways God has shown His goodness throughout the year. Gratitude opens our eyes to grace, in the people we love, quiet moments of peace, and even in the challenges that have shaped us.

As we gather around our tables, may our homes be filled with gratitude and the steady assurance of God’s faithful love. Wishing all Knights, friends, and families a blessed and peaceful Thanksgiving.

🦃 What is one grace you’re especially grateful for today?
