Our Lord Jesus Christ the King
November 21, 2010
I rejoiced because they said to me,
“We will go up to the house of the LORD.”
— Psalm 122:1
“YES” TO THE KING
The Church crowns the year of grace, its liturgical year, with the solemnity of
Christ the King. We could assume that a celebration of this magnitude would provide us
with an easy, clear presentation of who Christ is and who he calls us to be. But this feast flings the paradoxes of Christ’s kingship in
our face. Is Christ all-powerful? Is he the Messiah, the Anointed of God? Is he a victim, powerless in the hands of mortal rulers? Is
he dead on the cross? Is he alive in the splendor of eternal light? Is the inscription above his head true? Is he Shepherd or slaughtered
lamb? The answer is “Yes.”
What may be even more difficult is that we have also answered “Yes” to following this complex, paradoxical King who
reigns from the cross of death, who upsets our expectations and challenges us to upset many of the expectations of the world around
us. But before we despair of being able to sustain the difficulty of this mission, we are also strengthened by Paul’s words to the
Colossians. We are reminded that if we keep our eyes fixed on the cross, the throne of Christ, we will also find and know the source
of our reconciliation, our peace, and our hope to join him, sharing the inheritance of the holy ones in light everlasting.

Grocery stores are giving money to St. Joseph
School. This is what happens when you buy scrip.
When you buy a $100 gift card to a grocery store/
gas/restaurant, that store will give $4.00 to $6.00
back to the school. It costs you nothing and the
school gets all the proceeds. Stop by after any
Mass to learn more. We are averaging $3,000 each
Sunday in scrip sales with about 20 families buying.
Imagine what we could do if 100 families bought
scrip each week. This is a great way to do your
Christmas shopping.
CHRISTMAS CAROLING
It’s the most wonderful time of the year!! We are
getting ready to go caroling spreading good cheer to
the residents in the local convalescent homes. If you
haven’t experienced the joy in participating with St.
Teresa’s carolers why not plan to join us this year.
The reward is priceless!! Next week’s bulletin will
have a full schedule of events so be sure to pick
one up. For further information call Barbara @ 530889-2254 ext. 10.
Catholic Campaign for Human Development
The Catholic Campaign for Human Development (CCHD)
makes a difference in low-income communities by funding
programs that address the root causes of poverty. More
than ever, CCHD needs your support. This weekend we
will be having a second collection for the Catholic
Campaign. Thanking you in advance for your generosity.

KINGSHIP AND MONARCY
(Attitude)
Since the news broke about Prince William and Kate Middleton getting
married next year, it has grabbed all the headlines. The headlines for the past
few months have been acrimonious with political parties and candidates
attacking and vilifying each other. There is so much goodness in people, and family life is such a
blessing. Yet, it takes a family, like the Royal family, to put the joy of family life before our hearts and
minds.
Growing up in Ireland and because of our education system and our history, I wasn’t well
disposed towards the English Monarchy. One of my earliest memories on Christmas day was
listening to the Papal Blessing “UBI ET ORBI”, and then at 6:00pm in the evening my Mom would
listen to the Queen’s Christmas message. I enquired why she listened to the Queen? She replied,
“Because I appreciate what the Queen Mother and the King did during the war (World War II), and
because Queen Elizabeth has a woman’s perspective of life.” (My Mom’s answer was pre 1960).
Gradually, I began to listen to the Queen and this year I heard two brilliant speeches. One was
when Queen Elizabeth addressed the United Nation, and then when she welcomed the Pope to
Scotland and the United Kingdom.
We can all change if we give people and events a fair listening to. I know my attitude has
changed towards England and the Monarchy because of my Mom, the Queen Mother, Queen
Elizabeth, and most of all because of my sister and her family are living happily outside London. I
love visiting London and the rest of England, Scotland and Wales.
As a Catholic Church one of the titles we give to Our Lord is, “Christ Our King”. It is not a
kingship like any earthly kingship. Jesus did not want any personal glory, He gave the glory to the
Father. Jesus did not lord it over people, His life was one of service. He did not want the acquisition
of territory but the establishment in the hearts of His listeners of a way of life committed to the truth.
He came to reveal the truth about God the Father, loving and merciful; the truth of our
brotherhood and sisterhood in the world; the truth which like a sword cuts through all vain glory,
injustice and falsehood; the truth which sets people free; the truth that God loves us.
If we can change our attitude when we really listen to people, imagine our attitude when we
listen to Christ with all our senses and with our hearts. . . . . May all of us journey with Christ to
Christmas and beyond.
Christ the King, pray for us,
Fr. Mike

that’s been handed down from generation to generation?” “Yes”, says his mother, “What
about it?” Johnny answers, “Well, the last generation just dropped it.”

No classes on Sunday,
November 21 & 28th and
Thursday, November 25th.
This will allow us to travel and
celebrate Thanksgiving with
our families. But, if you are in
town over the holidays please
say HELLO to each other at
Mass.
May we always remember to be grateful and to give
thanks to the Lord! Have a blessed Thanksgiving
holiday.
It is time to start preparing for the reenactment of
the Nativity. Anyone interested in participating at
the children’s Mass on Christmas Eve and/or
Christmas Day, are asked to call the Religious
Education office at 823-7122 to sign up.
Children’s Liturgy of the Word will begin in
December at the 8:00am Mass. After the opening
prayers of the Mass, the priest invites the children to
come forward to the front of the church to receive a
blessing and then proceed to the chapel, where the
program is held. The children will return to the
church in time for the Liturgy of the Eucharist. This
program allows children (preschoolers are welcome
as long as they are accompanied by an adult) of our
parish the opportunity to hear and learn about the
Sunday readings in an interactive setting appropriate
to their attention span and comprehension level. If
you are interested in helping with this ministry
please call 823-7122.
Life Teen Schedule
Life Nights are held on Sunday after mass from 6:30 to
8:30pm unless noted otherwise.

Life Teen is open to all high school students and those

Each year the Giving Tree is our way
of reaching out to the community
helping area programs. This year we
are extending the outreach by working
with St. Joseph’s School Scrip
program. You can purchase gift cards to do your
shopping. On Saturday, November 26th and Sunday,
November 27th there will be a representative at the
service window on the plaza outside of church to answer
questions or explain how the program benefits the
school. Your generosity through the years has touched
the hearts of so many recipients. In that giving spirit,
may the Lord bless the kindness of all.
