A Silver Rose on a nine-month pilgrimage will be the centerpiece of a special prayer service at eight churches on PEI starting on March 18. This program is sponsored by the Knights of Columbus councils in these localities to honor Our Lady of Guadalupe and express both international unity and dedication to the sanctity of human life. The Rose will end its pilgrimage at the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe near Mexico City on December 12, the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe. All members of the community are invited to attend.
