RCIA ClassTonight

Please join us tonight for RCIA as we begin our first video of Symbolon. Invite a friend! Class is at 7:00pm in Charity Hall.
We will begin our journey into the heart of the Catholic Faith as pilgrims, exploring the reality of God, who he is, and how he expresses himself to us in the most meaningful way imaginable.

Parents and Grandparents are invited to join the students at 8:00am Mass on September 20th for Grandparents Day. Please join us after Mass in the cafeteria for Paula's famous cinnamon rolls along with juice and coffee. This is a great time to see all the exciting things that are happening at the Christ the King Catholic School.

A Great Turnout for Our Parish Picnic

Thank you to all who volunteered their time to make our picnic another success! We had a beautiful day to celebrate and enjoy our parish family!

The Christ the King Knights of Columbus will host a Burger Burn on next Saturday evening, September 23rd, after the 5:30 pm Mass. Father Ben Sawyer will give an informational talk on the last two years he spent in Europe studying. This should be a very insightful, and enlightening presentation on his experiences, observations, and the conditions which exist in Europe, and primarily Italy today.
Christ the King Knights of Columbus Council 16700 will host a Red Cross Blood Drive on December 9, 2017 in Charity Hall. Mark this date on your calendars. A healthy adult may donate once every 56 days. At Christ the King Parish, scheduling for donor appointments will start in November.

"...We have to realize that everything is a gift. Your being, your life, your body, your powers of mind and will and imagination, your accomplishments - all of it is a gift from a gracious God. When we realize this, we know that nothing is owed us; we have no great status to defend. Then we can live in gratitude."

Bishop Robert Barron

A family that is always there for each other and is always praying for each other. This retreat is led by youth and adults, along with a priest as the Spiritual Director. There are four different times you can go to a TEC retreat. There’s one in October, February, June, and July. You can always go to the Catholic Diocese of Wichita’s website and click on events and retreats and it will bring up all the retreats; then you just need to click on the TEC one. That’s where you can find more information and get applications for the retreat.
