My friends in Christ,
At the request of his home diocese there, Fr. William has returned to priestly ministry in Nicaragua. We are grateful for his service to the Cathedral and Mission this past year, and wish him many blessings in his ministry.
Father Juan Pablo Duran, along with the other priests of his congregation of the Legionaries of Christ, will support us with Eucharistic celebrations, confessions, and sacraments at the Cathedral and Mission of Christ the King through June. Fr. Robert Perez, from the Capuchin Franciscan community in Atlanta, will also support the Mission.
I'm also pleased that Sr. Miriam Mendoza is returning to CTK as Assistant Administrator for the Mission. Please keep our Mission and the entire Hispanic community of the Cathedral in your prayers!
Yours in Christ,
Monsignor Mc

Journeying through Grief
Beginning Wednesday, February 10, 6:30 PM-8:00 PM on Zoom.
During these difficult times, dealing with the loss of a loved one has become especially challenging and painful. If you are in need of consolation after losing a loved one, having a supportive, Christ-centered series on grief may offer the support and the tools you need to move through a tough, emotional time.
Through a series of reflections combined with writing and sharing activities suitable for groups or individuals, The New Day Journal course supports you as you work to accept the reality of your loss, navigate the pain of grief, and eventually adjust to a new life without the person you lost. Weekly sessions begin Wednesday, February 10, 6:30 PM-8 PM on Zoom. Cost, including the workbook: $25. For information and to register contact Linda Dyson at 404-233-2145 (ext. 440) or ldyson@ctking.com.
Ministries Seek Spanish-Speaking Volunteers
Several of CTK’s ministries and affiliated programs, including Adopt-A-Family and Compassion Kitchen, are seeking volunteer help from people fluent in both English and Spanish to support liaising with Spanish-speaking communities in 2021. This volunteer position would be a great help in organizing outreach and support to Spanish-speaking communities in Atlanta. If you would be willing to help, please contact Wendy Klump at wklump@ctking.com or 404-233-2145.
