On May 21st, we are celebrating the first canonized Knights of Columbus!

The first Knights of Columbus to be named saints, these men were all killed during the persecution of Catholics by the Mexican government in the 1920s.

The priests and laypeople who withstood this persecution are incredible heroes (you don’t want to miss the story of this AMAZING teenager). The Knights of Columbus shared this handy printable to help you learn more about these saints!

We want to help the littlest Catholics celebrate with this FREE coloring printable:

Now that you’ve downloaded the coloring page, tune into this week’s podcast episode where your kids can color while they listen to the Glory Story of Miguel de la Mora (one of the canonized Knights of Columbus Mexican Martyrs)!!
