The Knights of Columbus of St. Michael Parish, Council #5517 will honor St. Joseph, the Patron of the Universal Catholic Church with a Pilgrim Icon Prayer Service on Wednesday, May 1st at the 5:30 pm Mass followed by a Rosary and Litany in honor of the Feast Day of St. Joseph the Worker.
In preparation for the Feast Day, the Knights of Columbus Pilgrim Icon will arrive at St. Michael’s Church on Sunday April 28th and the Knights will lead the 9:30 am Mass procession with the Icon which will be placed in the Sanctuary for all to venerate.
Pope Francis said it best when he said “I commend all of you in a special way to the intercession of St. Joseph, the protector of the Holy Family of Nazareth, who is an admirable model of the manly virtues of quiet strength, integrity and fidelity which the Knights of Columbus are committed to preserving, cultivating and passing on to future generations of Catholic men”.

Through a grant from the Diocese of Scranton and generous parish sponsors, Saint Michael Parish has a subscription to FORMED, a premier online platform filled with over 4,000 Catholic studies, movies, audio dramas, talks, e-books, and even cartoons for our children. FORMED has content from over 60 apostolates, including Augustine Institute, Ignatius Press, and the Knights of Columbus, with material that is professionally produced, engaging, and solid in its catechism. Best of all, this material is free to you. This subscription has been renewed through September of 2023.
Our parish uses the material on FORMED to support our ministries and provide continuing education for staff members and parishioners, as well as outreach for our sick and homebound members. Much of FORMED’s content is available in both English and Spanish.
You can enjoy FORMED on your computer or on your television with an inexpensive Roku device or Apple TV. You can even listen on your phone as you commute to work or do chores.
