Knight Family of the Month, November 2022
By: John Stitch
Our Family of the Month for November 2022 is Brian and Victoria “Tori” Gray. They are selected based upon their service to the Prince of Peace Catholic Community and beyond.
Tori and Brian met on the last day of Tori’s 81-day Rosary Novena to St. Joseph. Tori had been invited to lead worship and give the Keynote Speech to a group of young adults, of which Brian was one of the leaders. Tori is a noted author, song writer and musician. Her first book, “Holy Spirit 101” is the only Catholic curriculum with ecclesial approval which trains the faithful to operate in the gifts of the Holy Spirit. As a song writer, her music appears in the OCP hymnal “Choose Christ” and appears in the feature film, “Hoovey”. As a guitarist, she has toured and made multiple appearances with Cardinal Dolan at various March for Life events. Her song “Sweet Dolor” debuted at #2 on iTunes Christian & Gospel charts.
Tori and Brian have been married for over five years and have three children: Forge, Felicity and John. She joined the Prince of Peace staff as the “Associate Director of Communications” in July 2021 and helps the Knights of Columbus communicate on the PoP website, through social media and with the Bulletin announcements. She also broadcasts the monthly Knights Awards through a variety of media.
Both are active members of Prince of Peace in the following ways:
They are members of Pursue, in both Group and Small Group activities.
Tori is a member of the Moms Group and both helped at the recent Trunk & Treat.
They attend many of the PoP events and enjoy the Knights Breakfasts.
