Prayer for the Canonization of Blessed Michael McGivney
Founder of the Knights of Columbus
God, our Father, protector of the poor and defender of the widow and orphan, you called your priest, Blessed Michael McGivney, to be an apostle of Christian family life and to lead the young to the generous service of their neighbor. Through the example of his life and virtue, may we follow your Son, Jesus Christ, more closely, fulfilling his commandment of charity and building up his Body which is the Church.
Let the inspiration of your servant prompt us to greater confidence in your love so that we may continue his work of caring for the needy and the outcast. We humbly ask that you glorify Blessed Michael McGivney on earth according to the design of your holy will.
Through his intercession, grant the favor I now present (make your request here). Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
Prayer To Saint Michael the Archangel
St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the Devil.
May God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou, O Prince of heavenly hosts, by the power of God, cast into hell Satan, and all the evil spirits, who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls.
Amen.
Prayer to Receive a New Bishop
Praise to you, Lord our God, our Eternal Shepherd and Guide. We know that all authority comes from You.
With confidence in Your providence, we entreat You to provide the Diocese of Knoxville a new shepherd after Your own heart. In Your love for us, send us a shepherd who will lead us in being Christ's hear of mercy, voice of hope, and hands of justice.
Help him to fill our minds and hearts with the truth of the Gospel, the power of the sacraments, and the desire to build up Your Holy Church.
We pray through Christ our Lord. Amen.
KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS
COUNCIL #5207
PROUDLY SUPPORTS:
The founding principle for the Knights of Columbus and the basis for everything we do is Charity. We strive to support so many within our community.
We graciously ask you to consider donating to any of our efforts to help make a difference in someone's life.
CLICK TO SUPPORT!
Thanks to the generosity and time given from our Knights and members of our local community, our council has been blessed to take part in and support numerous endeavors focused on aiding others.
Because of everyone's effort, we can continue performing this much needed charitable work for many years to come.
Provide a Helping Hand
VOLUNTEER YOUR TIME FOR SOMETHING SPECIAL
The Knights of Columbus' first core principle is focused on Charity. Every effort we make to support our families, friends, communities, and the world can actually make a monumental and positive difference in our everyday lives.
Whether you are a Knight or not, you and your family can always take part in helping with the many events that our council partakes in throughout the year. Check out various opportunities to volunteer as events become available throughout the year.
SATURDAY KNIGHTS
One of the many service opportunities that the council takes part in involves various stewardship tasks that provide aid to the grounds and structures located at the Cathedral of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus and the associated Sacred Heart Cathedral School.
This volunteer event normally occurs on the second Saturday of every month throughout the year. Various job tasks, both inside and outside to accommodate any weather, will be available for the scheduled day.
We encourage everyone to participate in at least one session each year at a minimum to help make a difference.
