What is Christ the King ?
The Solemnity of Christ the King is the final Sunday of the liturgical calendar – the last Sunday of Ordinary Time. The season of Advent begins the following Sunday.
The purpose of this celebration is to remind us that Jesus is the most important person on Earth & Heaven.
On the Solemnity of Christ the King, it is important to remember, that Christ is King not only of the universe but also of our hearts and homes. He is a just King, but He is also loving and merciful and will be with us until the end of time. Jesus is the king that came to save us from our sins. During Advent we await the coming of the infant King – the son of God born in Bethlehem to free us from our sins. He is a king of love, mercy, peace, and forgiveness who comes to lead us to the truth and to eternal life. Jesus is a King who teaches us to serve with humility and gentleness – “For the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many” (Mark 10:42-45).
Christ the King of the Universe – have mercy on us and on the whole world! Viva Cristo Rey! (Live Christ the King translated from Spanish)
Thank you, Jesus Christ, for coming into this world as our King. Stay with us this week, and show us the way to your kingdom in heaven. Amen.
