On Wednesday, September 8th at 8:00 p.m. members of the parish Knights of Columbus Council invite families and parishioners to join in the recitation of a special rosary at St. Joseph’s. The following article, from the Knights of Columbus website (www.kofc.org), describes this inspired act of prayer:
Knights of Columbus and their families around the world will unite under the intercession of Our Lady of Guadalupe to pray the Rosary of Guadalupan Love on Sept. 8, the Universal Day of Our Lady of Guadalupe.
“On Sept. 8, we will pray the rosary for Our Lady’s intercession for unity and peace,” said Supreme Knight Carl A. Anderson. “We will pray that the new evangelization will cause the Culture of Life to flourish on all continents and among all people, and that Our Lady of Guadalupe intercedes with her Son to guide our councils in their charitable work.”
The Rosary of Guadalupan Love will be prayed in the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Mexico City, Sept. 8 from 9-10 p.m. (ET). This special worldwide rosary is being organized by the Knights of Columbus, the Archdiocese of Mexico City and the Institute of Guadalupan Studies in observance of the bicentennial of Mexico’s independence. The event honors Our Lady of Guadalupe as the “Shield and the Patroness of Our Liberty” and as the Mother of the Civilization of Love.

On Friday, June 18, the steel framework for our new bell tower and adoration chapel was delivered and installed. Workmen of The LAW Company coordinated the work with those of the Macke & Sons, Inc. steel fabricators in Newton and the Belger Cartage Service in Wichita to place the structure on the site for the chapel. It was delivered on a flatbed trailer and lifted off by a crane starting at 10:00 a.m. Once unloaded, the church bell, from the original church that had been located on Chestnut Avenue, was fastened to the structure. It was then lifted upright and moved into place and fastened to four sets of bolts set in the concrete foundation. Four video segments capture the work that was accomplished.
