My friends in Christ,
We are all looking forward to the day we can celebrate Mass together. That day will come, and when it does, we know things will look a little different, at least at first. I am working with our staff and parishioners with public health expertise to define those guidelines. We will also adhere to guidance from both the Archbishop and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Thank you so much for your continued financial support of the parish. I am grateful for the ways you are committing your time, talent, and treasure to our ministries. Thank you, also, for your prayers.

Please join me in praying both for patience and for prudence as we look ahead to worshiping together. Pray especially for our Archbishop, who, with the guidance of priests and public health officials, will determine when we can safely come together again.
Yours in Christ,
Monsignor Mc

WHERE REX SLEEPS
While our students have been at home, they've naturally wondered how Rex, our beloved mascot, is doing. Some Christ the King staff produced this video to show them what he's doing with his day and where he sleeps.
SERVE GOD AND OTHERS AS A STEPHEN MINISTER
Our Stephen Ministry has never had such demand as they do now. A new cohort of Stephen Ministers will be commissioned this fall. Christ the King’s Stephen Ministers offer one-to-one pastoral care for individuals experiencing a wide range of life’s stressors – loneliness, loss, medical or spiritual crises — at no cost to the receiver. Stephen Ministry trains and organizes lay persons to provide one-to-one Christian care in and around our parish.
To start the application process to become a Stephen Minister, contact Linda Dyson at 404-233-2145 (ext.440) or ldyson@ctking.org. Applications are due August 21.
