Saint Maria Goretti Catholic School would like to thank the Knights of Columbus for sharing the Silver Rose with us at Mass today. It was a beautiful sight to behold, and we really enjoyed learning about its inception sixty years ago. Our sincere thanks to Sir Knight Diego Peña, for sharing the Silver Rose's history and fellow Sir Knights Anson Geisel and Jerry Hightower for hosting.

The SMG Annual Dinner, Dance, and Auction will be here before you know it! We need your help to make this year's event a success. The Dinner Dance and Auction Committee is accepting all types of donations. In particular, if you or anyone you know could provide any of the following, please contact Kathy Knowles at jameskathyknowles@tx.rr.com or Jessica McGuinness at Jessica-mcguinness@hotmail.com.

The Silver Rose pays homage to the Miracle of the Roses of St. Juan Diego, the appearance of Blessed Mother Mary, and where we get the name of Our Lady of Guadalupe. Each year, Silver Roses are stewarded by Knights of Columbus councils for a pilgrimage that makes stops along routes from Canada to Mexico. The pilgrimage is a rosary-centered occasion for the Knights, parishioners, and community 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. The Silver Rose will be in Fort Worth for two weeks on its pilgrimage and SMG parent and Knight, Mr. Anson Geisel, has graciously arranged for the Silver Rose to be at SMG on Wednesday, November 14th at the 8 AM Mass. All are welcome to join us at Mass on Wednesday (and any Wednesday) for this special opportunity to have the Silver Rose here and to pray to promote the dignity of human life.

SMG has a new online store that will feature new Spiritwear and SMG Swag items each month! See below for details.
