Stewardship Scripture Reflection
|
|
Thirty-Third Sunday in Ordinary Time
The readings today speak of the end of the world and the coming of the kingdom. The bishops’ pastoral on stewardship says clearly that “that ‛life to come’ is in continuity with this present life through the human goods, the worthy human purposes, which people foster now.” May our good stewardship help us to be numbered among the chosen on the last day!

Dear Christ Our King and Savior Parish Family,
With the celebration of Christ the King of the Universe just around the corner (next weekend!) that means our liturgical year is coming to an end, but not before we turn as a nation to the Lord, the giver of every good and perfect gift, and thank Him for His blessings.
As you gather around your table, big or small, lots of family or just a few, do take time to pray, thanking the Lord for the gift of your life, for all that you have, for all the ways He works behind the scenes, for all the moments of His providence, for health, and even for the crosses He asks us to take up. "It's all grace" said St. Therese, the Little Flower. It's all grace!
May all of you have safe travels, meaningful quality time with the people you love, a great meal (or several!), and hearts full of gratitude.
Also, if you will be in town next weekend, please come to our Parish Feast Day, Christ the King of the Universe! We will have a Eucharistic Procession at the end of Mass, and a celebration of Vespers (Evening Prayer) in the Church at 6PM followed by a PotLuck dinner in the social hall to celebrate. The sign up will be below.
A Happy and Blessed Thanksgiving to you all!
Peace in Christ,
Fr. Michael
