Knights of Columbus from across the country have played an important role in the support of state and national Marches for Life. This holds true for the upcoming march in Michigan.

 

A strong showing of support on the first anniversary of the devastating passage of pro-abortion Proposal 3 sends a powerful message to our elected officials, the citizens of our state, and the nation at large. You can help make history through your volunteering at this march.

 

Thank you for your support.

Faith & Family First for Life!

This was a black tie event where guests wore tennis shoes in solidarity with the Special Olympic athletes. With 364 people in attendance, and nearly $300,000 raised, it was a powerful symbol of unity and support, showing that we stand with these incredible athletes every step of the way.

Gary Koenigsknecht, Pastor St. Joseph Howell presided over the mobile unit and Ultrasound blessings.

We are less than TWO weeks away from the Michigan March for Life at the State Capitol Building in Lansing!  We are thrilled to partner with Right to Life of Michigan for the Michigan March for Life.  Please join us on Wednesday November 8^th to stand for Michigan’s most vulnerable citizens.

In a state that once proudly championed the sanctity of life, and protected women and the unborn, Michigan’s course has taken a disheartening turn. In the wake of Roe’s overturn, pro-abortion politicians and lobbyists have worked hard to turn Michigan into one of the most pro-abortion states in the country.

That is why we need you, your family, friends, and neighbors to make your voices heard in defense of the unborn!

Schedule of events is listed below. Our Worthy State Deputy Christopher A. Kolomjec will lead the Pledge of Allegiance.

Please RSVP here
