KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS MARIAN PRAYER PROGRAM

A Faith In Action – Faith Program For Your Council

A Higher Purpose
Spread devotion to Our Lady and pray for our brothers and sisters of faith who are at risk around the world through the Marian Prayer Program.

Councils are asked to consider hosting the Our Lady Help of Persecuted Christians icon and to run a prayer service at their parish.

A complete Program Booklet will guide you through putting on the prayer service.  Prayer cards with the Image are also given to all who participate in the service.

Overview
The 2018-2019 Marian Prayer Program presents the 18th Marian image sponsored by the Knights of Columbus, this time of Our Lady Help of Persecuted Christians.

Each Knights of Columbus jurisdiction receives at least one Marian image, which serves as the centerpiece for prayer services conducted in churches and council meeting places throughout the Order for the duration of the initiative.

Since its inception in 1979, the Knights of Columbus’ Marian Prayer Program has held more than 166,900 local council and parish prayer services with some 20 million participants. This year, the prayer service is intended to raise awareness of the plight of Christians persecuted for their faith and to stand in prayerful solidarity with them.
