Denver’s rapid rise in the mid-19th century from a collection of mining camps to a city renowned for its urban charm and outdoor beauty is emblematic of the American West. The city also boasts a deeply Catholic history intertwined with that of the Knights of Columbus, which established the first council west of the Mississippi River in Denver in 1900. The setting, with its tangible reminders of the beauty of God’s creation, provides an inspiring backdrop for this year’s Supreme Convention.

One hundred years ago, the Catholic people of Mexico suffered one of the most violent religious persecutions in modern history. Churches were closed. The faith was outlawed. But the people rose up to defend Christ and His Church. This is their story. One hundred years later, their witness must be shared.
Pope Leo XIV offers a heartfelt message to the Knights of Columbus gathered for the 143rd Supreme Convention in Washington, D.C.
Speaking during the Jubilee Year of Hope, the Holy Father reflects on the virtue of hope and commends the Knights for their faithful witness through charity, fraternity, and service to those in need.
He honors the legacy of Blessed Michael McGivney and encourages all Knights to be living “Heralds of Hope” in their communities and throughout the world.

En medio del dolor, mantengan la fe, incluso cuando parezca que la muerte ha vencido. ¡Quiten la piedra de su corazón! Que la Palabra de Dios devuelva la vida donde hay muerte.
- Papa Francisco
