[hr] At the Knights of Columbus’ 129th annual Supreme Convention in Denver, the world’s largest fraternal organization passed several resolutions to, among other things, honor Blessed John Paul and support religious liberty, the institution of marriage, the armed forces and Catholic education.
The Knights also reaffirmed their commitment to building a culture of life by fighting abortion and helping pregnant women in need; promoting policies that favor the family; calling for laws that protect the conscience of all medical personnel; and upholding the Church’s opposition to the death penalty.
