Are you Catholic and in need of Sacraments? Please contact the Parish Office at (254) 773-4541 for more information about all our Faith Formation opportunities. Are you interested in becoming Catholic or learning more about the Catholic Faith? This great feast of Christ the King allows us to remember the paradoxical nature of the reign of Christ. Ours is a king whose arms are flung wide to embrace the world in love, but those arms were nailed to a cross, a form of execution for the lowest. Christ’s power to give life is manifested in the midst of powerlessness. Christ unmasks the false illusions of political or economic power or social prestige and shows that his reign is to be found with the poor, the helpless and among sinners. Will we join him? Friday 8:30am - 5:30pm To schedule an hour with Our Lord call MaryAnn or Phil Everett at 254-721-0931 ** Attention Parishioners ** Beginning Friday, December 6th First Friday Holy Hour will immediately follow the 5:30pm Daily Mass Our Second Collection will support the Catholic Campaign for Human Development ~ AND ~ Friday, Nov. 29th - NO ADORATION Daily Mass will be celebrated at 5:30pm Happy Thanksgiving to all our Parish Family!
