The Knight's Prayer

     Our Lady Queen of the Knights,
bless all the activities of our Order.
Keep us true to the 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 which should
characterize those specially dedicated to
the service of the heavenly court.
Make us always aware that as your Knights
we are constantly observed and our faith
judged and our Order appreciated.
Accept, O Mary, this renewed pledge of
fealty and devotion of thy servants,
the Knights of Columbus.                   Amen

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 to the Father
