Dear Parishioners;
We come to the end of the liturgical year with the Solemnity of Christ the King. The official title of today’s feast is “Our Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe.” Through his death on the cross, rising from the dead and ascension into heaven, Jesus won our salvation and opened the way to eternal life. Today’s Gospel reading from the twenty-fifth chapter of Matthew is the parable of the sheep and goats at the end of time. It closes with what we know as the corporal works of mercy.
The special second collection this weekend is for the church roof. I ask for your continued generosity.
