'Beauty of Their Dreams'

Knights of Columbus and their families are invited to sign up for an exclusive screening of the Emmy Award-winning documentary "Beauty of Their Dreams," which tells the stories of individuals and faith groups advocating for girls’ education around the world.

It also highlights the Marengoni Primary School in Uganda, which serves children who are orphaned because of AIDS, and was constructed in 2012 by the Apostles of Jesus with assistance from the Knights of Columbus.

The film is available to Knights and their families for free streaming from April 25 to May 2. If in-person events are allowed in your area, consider hosting a family movie night at your parish. If not, please share the information and links with your council and parishioners.

The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops reminds us that Catechetical Sunday is an opportunity to reflect on the responsibility each of us receives th...

Connecticut Catholic Conference Promotes Federal Tax Credit Scholarship

Your voice matters. Let it be heard. Beginning in January, a donation to an eligible scholarship-granting organization could help more students access the education that their families choose and that they deserve.

Relic of Christ’s Tunic to be Displayed for Pope Leo in France

The Holy Tunic will travel almost four miles from Argenteuil, France, to the pope’s youth vigil at the Stade de France in Saint-Denis. For the first time, a pope will witness an exposition of the Holy Tunic, the garment worn by Christ during his passion, which is preserved in the Basilica of Saint-Denis in Argenteuil, France.
