Our Knights of Columbus added a Respect for Life monument to the Memorial Prayer Garden Saturday, January 25, 2020. Thanks to Buddy Shepard, our Grand Knight, for continuing to coordinate this effort. The Dedication ceremony began with a blessing by Rev. Msgr. Joseph Pemberton followed by his homily summarizing the images shown on the front of the Respect For Life monument. Our Culture of Life coordinator, Gabe Gutierrez, offered a short reflection and led the group in prayer as the beginning of the 9 days for life novena for the protection of human life. Along with the wooden cross and the Respect for Life monument, the Knights plan to add a Stations of the Cross installed around the perimeter of the .engraved bricks with names of family members to be honored or remembered.
