The Novena for Repentance, Renewal and Rebuilding, currently being prayed by Knights of Columbus all over the world as the bishops meet to discuss the sexual abuse crisis, will count for program credit for the Novena for Life Required Faith in Action Program.

To receive credit, your council must pray the novena in an organized way. It is OK if the dates you pray each day of the novena do not align with the days of the emails being sent by Supreme, as the novena has already begun.

To receive credit, please be sure to turn in the Fraternal Programs Report Form (#10784). You can access the form by clicking here.

Warriors to Lourdes is an annual international pilgrimage for military personnel from around the world. This is an opportunity for prayer and healing.

If your council or assembly is able to support this pilgrimage at a special gift level of $2600, it will be counted as fulfilling either the Faith or Family Featured program requirement for this fraternal year. You can donate and learn more by clicking here .

The check must come from your council and processed through the Charities department. Visit warriorstolourdes.com to learn more about this pilgrimage and how to provide support.

Hosting a Coats for Kids event, can be challenging. We have provided a guide to help with the necessary steps to run a successful Coats for Kids event. This one pager is designed to ensure that your council shines at the event. Along with the one pager is a Media advisory template, which should be used to get the word out. You can access the one-page Coats for Kids Guide by clicking here.
