Everyone is invited to join the Knights of Columbus Council #3410 and participate in The Silver Rose, respect for life pilgrimage, honoring Our Lady of Guadalupe. The Silver Rose program demonstrates the unity between Knights of Columbus in Canada, the United States and Mexico, through a series of prayer services promoting the dignity of all human life and honoring Our Lady. Each year, from early March through mid-December, Silver Roses are stewarded by Knights of Columbus councils along routes from Canada to Mexico. Every stop the Silver Rose makes throughout the pilgrimage is a rosary-centered occasion for Knights, parishioners and community members to pray for respect for life, for the spiritual renewal of each nation, and for the advancement of the message of Our Lady of Guadalupe. In 2024 the Silver Rose is traveling through Akron. Join us Sunday morning July 7th, at St. Paul Church. We will begin with the rosary at 7:30 am, 8:00 am mass, and the Silver Rose prayer service immediately following mass. If you have any questions, please reach out to Grand Knight Steve Dort at 330-212-7315 or District Deputy Tom Goodhart at 330-957-3088
