THE SILVER ROSE PILGRIMAGE
Each year, from early March through mid-December, Silver Roses are stewarded by Knights of Columbus councils along routes from Canada to Mexico.
Every stop the Silver Rose makes throughout the pilgrimage is a rosary-centered occasion for Knights, parishioners and community members to pray for respect for life, for the spiritual renewal of each nation, and for the advancement of the message of Our Lady of Guadalupe.
Through a series of prayer services promoting the dignity of all human life and honoring Our Lady the Virginia Knights of Columbus will host the Silver Rose from 26 February through 26 March 2022 and then it is passed on to the State of Tennessee.
