The New Riegel community has a young girl who is in bad shape with cancer. The Supreme has loaned the New Riegel Knights a First Class relic. We have in our possession a piece of rib bone from the rib of Blessed Michael McGiveny.
We are planning a 9-day novena to Blessed Father Michael McGivney.
It is scheduled to start on Monday, Nov. 18 and end with mass on Tuesday, Nov. 26th.
The relic will be displayed Monday night (the 18) from 5:30pm to 6:30pm, and we will say the Day 1 prayer at 6:30 to end the day.
Then, the Relic will be available for private veneration, every day from 8 AM until 6:30 PM.
Father would like to say the daily novena prayer after each mass.
(Wed. Thurs. and Fri. 8 am) (Saturday at 5 pm and Sunday 8 am and 10 am) (No mass on mondays)
The Knights plan to have someone present from 5:30 pm to 6:30 pm, every day (including Sundays)and will concluding each day at 6:30pm with the prayer for that day. On evenings that there is a mass the Knights will have someone present for 1/2 after mass for viewing.
On Tuesday the 26th of November we are asking that the 4th Degree color Guard be present at the mass to escort Father and the Relic in.

Deep within each human soul, there exists an intense craving for connection, purpose, and love — a thirst that only God can satisfy. Yet, the question remains: How does one fulfill this yearning? The Catholic Church teaches that the Eucharist is the most profound means by which God shares Himself with humanity. However, a 2019 Pew Research Study unveiled a concerning reality: only one-third of practicing U.S. Catholics believe in the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist.
In Jesus Thirsts: The Miracle of the Eucharist, we embark on a global journey to rediscover and revive the transformative power of the Eucharist. Engaging in dialogue with notable Catholic figures, the film explores the biblical origins of the Eucharist and shares personal stories of individuals whose lives have been transformed by the Blessed Sacrament. This exploration makes it unmistakably clear that the Eucharist is not merely a symbol, but is indeed Jesus Christ Himself — fervently desiring to quench our spiritual thirst with His boundless love.
Jesus Thirsts is a compelling cinematic teaching about the real presence of Jesus in the Eucharist. It offers catechetical teaching which then is reinforced by Eucharistic witness of people and events. After watching, a viewer cannot walk away without believing in the true presence.”
