St. Joseph Prayer Service - January 23, 2022
|
Sunday January 23rd we will offer a prayer service as part of the Pilgrim Icon Program. The K of C Pilgrim Icon Program began in 1979. Every few years the Supreme Knight chooses a new icon to share among the 16,000 Knights of Columbus chapters around the world. The new icon features St. Joseph holding the Christ child. Our parish has the privilege of displaying this icon Jan 20th - Jan 26th, when it will move to another chapter and parish.
