A Prayer for the Feast of Christ the King 

As the great wheel of the liturgy spins,

It lands here, once a year,

To remind us that Christ is King

As we prepare to approach the manger once more,

We need this renewal in understanding

That the glory of God turns up in the most unexpected places.

O Christ the King, turn our hearts this day

Not only to the world around us

But to the world within us

Where your Kingdom comes anew

With each act of love we offer,

Each prayer we whisper, each breath we draw.

Amen

– Cameron Bellm

This Sunday we celebrate the Feast of Christ the King, a special day that reminds us Jesus is the King of the Universe and the center of our lives. His kingdom is built on love, peace, and service and not power or force. As we prepare for Advent, we are called to follow Christ’s example of kindness and humility in all we do.
