Supreme Knight Patrick Kelly encourages Knights to look to the example of Blessed Michael McGivney, who, like us, lived in a time when the Church and its families faced a hostile culture. “In the mold of St. Joseph, he stepped into the breach, with creative courage,” the supreme knight said. “Father McGivney listened to the Lord, fought for the family and the faith, and devoted himself to our Blessed Mother.” This clip is an excerpt from Supreme Knight Patrick Kelly’s Annual Report, delivered Aug. 3, during the 139th Supreme Convention.

In February 2021, the 35-year-old son of Brother Knight Oscar Garcia was killed in a tragic house fire.
