The Knights of Columbus Silver Rose prayer service will be held at 6:30 pm during the Mass at St. John the Baptist on Thursday, April 30th.

This annual event is a pro-life pilgrimage celebrating Our Lady of Guadalupe, Patroness of the Americas. Established in 1960 by the Columbian Squires in Mexico, it initially involved a single rose transported to the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Monterrey.

Today, eight Silver Roses travel along different routes originating from various parts of Canada and the U.S., eventually meeting in Texas and then proceeding to Mexico for the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe on December 12.
