Pictured left to right with Knights on Bikes and members of the Miami Council are Color Corp members Freddy Gutierrez, Hugo Valdivia, Bruce Goeser, Tom Paulus (Commander), Marc Spinola, Ralph Egues (Faithful Navigator), and Nick Bravo. Chany Almazan (not pictured) also served on the 14th of August at the 5:30 pm Mass at St. Hugh Catholic Church where a Silver Rose was presented by the Knights on Bikes.
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. At the request of the Miami Council #1726, the Florida State Council scheduled a Silver Rose visit to St Hugh in Coconut Grove on the weekend of Blessed Fr. Michael J. McGivney's Feast Day observance. |
