On Sunday, November 8, 2026, the Michigan Knights of Columbus joined the Detroit Archdiocesan Vocations League (DAVL) for the annual DAVL Memorial Mass at Sacred Heart Major Seminary, 2701 Chicago Blvd., Detroit. The 10 AM Mass was offered on the Thirty-second Sunday in Ordinary Time, as Brother Knights, families and friends gathered to remember our Brothers who have gone before us.

 

 

Very Reverend Kevin G. Creagh, C.M., was the presiding celebrant. Sir Knights of the Fourth Degree Color Corps assisted at the Mass, and the program described the day as a Memorial Mass and Brunch. After Mass, those present shared brunch with the seminarians who are preparing to serve as our future priests.

Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May they rest in peace. Amen.
