Knight's Prayers

Knight’s Prayer

Our Lady, Queen of the Knights,

bless all the activities of our Order.

Keep us true to our pledge,

to extend the kingship of thy divine son on earth.

Through Thine intercession, win for us the grace,

ever to exemplify in our public and private lives,

the virtues that should characterize those especially dedicated

to the service of the heavenly court.

Make us always aware that as your Knights,

we are constantly observed, our faith judged,

and our Order appreciated.

Accept, O Mary,

this renewed pledge of fealty and devotion,

of Thy Servants, the Knights of Columbus.

Prayer for the Canonization of Father Michael J. McGivney

God, our Father, protector of the poor

and defender of the widow and orphan,

you called your priest, Father Michael J. McGivney,

to be an apostle of Christian family life

and to lead the young to the generous service of their neighbor.

Through the example of his life and virtue

may we follow your Son, Jesus Christ, more closely,

fulfilling his commandment of charity

and building up his Body which is the Church.

Let the inspiration of your servant prompt us

to greater confidence in your love

so that we may continue his work

of caring for the needy and the outcast.

We humbly ask that you glorify your servant

Father Michael J. McGivney on earth according

to the design of your holy will.

Through his intercession,

grant the favor I now present (here make your request).

Through Christ our Lord. Amen.

(Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be.)
