The activities we have planned for the youth are diverse and allow young people to demonstrate their individuality, creativity, physical fitness and talents. We encourage participation at council level and look forward to participation in the State Council sponsored events.
We seek to recognize and encourage youth activities that result in our young people performing community service; a special youth activities award will be presented at the annual State Council Founder’s Day reception. The award will be presented to the best youth activity that involves community service performed by an individual or youth group.
The youth of our families are the leaders of tomorrow. We should encourage and nourish their minds and bodies in order to excel and provide direction to their lives. By encouraging our Catholic principles, we can prepare them for their future and a better quality of life.
O great and glorious God, You imbued Your holy priest. Father Michael J. McGivney, with deep priestly virtue and especially with pastoral concern for the poor, the orphan, the widow, for the Christian education of youth, for the protection of the faith of the working man of his day.
Now that his priestly ministry continues to spread to countless millions throughout the world, through the efforts and influence of the Order of the Knights of Columbus, which Father McGivney founded, we beseech Your, Heavenly Father, to raise Your faithful servant, Michael, to the honors of the altar. We ask this favor through our Lord Jesus Christ and His Holy Mother, Mary and our Mother, Amen.
