Mother Teresa Movie

BUY TICKETS   “Mother Teresa taught us that there are no expendable people. Everyone  we encounter is made in the image of God. So, when she was feeding the  hungry or holding the hands of someone as they lay dying, she was  treating them as she would the most important person in her life, Jesus  Christ himself.” - Supreme Knight Patrick E. Kelly   Watch Trailer   Tickets are on sale now for MOTHER TERESA: NO GREATER LOVE, a documentary produced by the Knights of Columbus that tells the inspirational  story of one of the world’s most revered saints, Mother Teresa of Calcutta.  The film will be released in select theaters nationwide Monday, Oct. 3, and  Tuesday, Oct. 4, 2022. MOTHER TERESA: NO GREATER LOVE reveals  not just who Mother Teresa was, but how her singular vision to serve Christ in  the poor continues to be realized today through the religious order she  founded, the Missionaries of Charity.   Fathom Events will distribute the movie, which was filmed on five continents  and features unprecedented access to both institutional archives and the  apostolates of the Missionaries of Charity. This is far more than a  documentary film. It is at once a soaring tribute to a spiritual icon, a powerful  witness of authentic Christian charity and a guidepost for all who seek hope  in our turbulent times.     “This documentary challenges us to move out of our own petty self- centeredness, to a greater generosity of spirit, towards God and our fellow  men. May it sensitize us to open our hearts and hands, to the sufferings of  our brothers and sisters far and near.” - Sr. M.

Aid and Support After Pregnancy

Give to the ASAP (Aid and Support After Pregnancy) initiative today to support effective pro-life initiatives.

Dear Brother Daniel,

Last week, Supreme Knight Patrick Kelly gave us an inspiring message during his opening remarks at our annual Supreme Convention in Nashville.  Mr. Kelly celebrated that Roe v. Wade was recently overturned and also emphasized that now, more than ever, mothers and children need our unwavering support.  

He said, “The end of Roe is a crucial milestone. But we cannot mistake it for the end of abortion. We can hope it’s the beginning of the end.  And as Knights, we must push forward with all the courage and compassion we can summon.  As much as we’ve done, there is still so much more to do.  We must increase our efforts on every front. …With Roe gone, many mothers will still experience fear and uncertainty.  Many will be tempted to seek an abortion in another state. But the Knights can point them in the right direction, toward life.  The best thing we can do is redouble our support for pregnancy resource centers.”

Knights of Columbus Charities has a distinguished legacy of defending life.  We’ve played a leading role in national and state marches for life since they began. We’ve help place over 1,500 ultrasound machines in local pregnancy centers.  Today, we must continue to lead as defenders of life through our new initiative, ASAP (Aid and Support After Pregnancy). This program will provide support to local pregnancy resource centers and maternity homes allowing them to directly meet the needs of mothers and children in their community. Your gift today to our United in Charity Fund allows us to answer growing needs and allows us to be agile and adapt if needed.

This fraternal year, the Knights of Columbus pledge $5M in support of local pregnancy centers, maternity homes, and other organizations that give direct assistance to new mothers and their babies. Our first step in reaching this goal is to raise $1M by August 31. To date we are nearly 20% of the way there.

People often say that pro-lifers only care about babies, but as this initiative demonstrates, we are there for mother and child. The need is great. Can I count on you to act today?
