Every few years, the Knights of Columbus selects an icon of a saint whose patronage is
particularly inspiring to Knights and their communities. Each jurisdiction receives one or
several of these icons which travel from council to council and serve as the centerpieces
for prayer services in parishes throughout the Order. Since the first traveling pilgrim icon
of Our Lady of Guadalupe in 1979, more than 174,800 council and parish prayer services
with some 22 million participants have been held. (https://www.kofc.org/en/what-we-

As a faith community, we are honored to host the St. Joseph Pilgrim Icon and celebrate anevening of prayer. St. Joseph, pray for us!
