Feast Day of OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, KING OF THE UNIVERSE
SolemnityToday, on the feast of Christ the KIng, we come to the last Sunday of the Liturgical Year. Next Sunday will begin a new Liturgical Year with the beginning of Advent. If you have time, read today's gospel, Matthew 25:31-46. If you do not have time to read it yourself, pay close attention to the gospel reading at mass. It is a beautiful vision of Jesus as King of the Universe and the Last Judgement. It should prompt us to pause as this year comes to a close and evaluate how we have done and where we will be in that scene: right or left?
Jesus, Son of the Living God, have mercy on me, a sinner.
