In the wake of the pending Dobbs case at the U.S. Supreme Court we must remain strong and dedicated. The New Hampshire Knights of Columbus always has stood and will continue to stand up for the sanctity of life at all stages. We will not waver in our battle to protect the unborn. We know that life is a gift from God and must be cherished.

At this time, evil is rearing its ugly head and will stop at nothing to deny women in crisis the ability to choose life. So called Catholic politicians are asking people to pray for the upholding of the Roe V. Wade decision. Imagine, asking God to allow women to murder their own children. Our prayers for life must be stronger. We must pray in Unity and Charity!

The New Hampshire State Council and our local councils are dedicated to giving moral and tangible support to our pregnancy care centers.

If you need help at this critical time, please reach out to the local council or councils in your service area. We will be there for you!

We know we can continue to work together to change hearts and minds and to continue to build a culture of life!

Peace in Christ,
Ron Di Stasio
State Life Director

Worthy Brother Knights: The 2023 Keep Christ in Christmas documents are now available on the NH State Council Web Site. The English text cards are back with a new vendor.  Orders will be filled until items are out-of-stock.  It is expected the current supply of ethnic style cards as well as "KCIC Christmas Activity" materials and products will be available to fill all requests.  Councils are encouraged to order early. Adjustments needed on any requests will be followed up on as swiftly as possible. Councils are encouraged to use a wide variety of evangelization materials ~ magnets, bumper stickers, yard signs, seals, pins, banners ~ to spread the Christmas message and promote the Keep Christ in Christmas evangelization. This will give multiple added options to your council as you continue to spread the message of the Birth of Jesus Christ.   Notice on the public color brochure a larger variety of Car Magnets and the Yard Signs.

Please, please take the time to read all of the below listed documents on the NH State Council web site prior to contacting me for questions.

The 2023 KCIC program documents are now available on the NH State Council Web Site. There are *nine (9) KCIC documents available to provide you all of the information needed to begin your 2023 KCIC Program in your council.

All Knights are invited to join in praying the scriptural rosary for the canonization of Blessed Fr. McGivney on the 4th Thursday of each month (except November 16, 2023 and March 21, 2024).  To register see the bottom of this article. This is a special scriptural rosary that helps us stay engaged in meditation on the life of Christ and the mystery of the rosary.  Blessed Fr. McGivney deserves our prayers and asks The Father to grant our heart-felt petitions.

Fr. McGivney's zeal for the proclamation of the Gospel and generous concern for the needs of his brothers and sisters is an outstanding witness of Christian solidarity and fraternal assistance.  By Apostolic Authority, Pope Francis decreed Fr. Michael McGivney be given the title of Blessed in
September 2020 and his Memorial to be celebrated each August 13th.

There are many ways to honor our founding father through mass liturgy, prayer for his canonization, a novena, a litany, devotions, liturgy of the hours, short films and sharing his life and legacy with others.  Please use this URL to access
