Faith, Service and Stewardship
Happy Easter
A blessed Easter Day and season to all. Thank to you who may be visiting Christ King or in the area but not here
very often. Your presence is a true gift and is a gift that we need every Sunday.
Thanks to all who made these most sacred days wonderful. Maggie Pernice, our director of liturgy, is a genius in
so many ways but most importantly in pulling together the massive jigsaw puzzle of the liturgies these days. We
are so blessed to have Maggie with us. Thanks to Bill Lieven, director of liturgical music, who always raises the
bar on our sacred music and so wonderfully and impressively helps us to pray through sound. Thanks to liturgical
ministers, choir members, cantors, and musicians who have given their time and talents. And thanks to the many
hands who have helped with environment setup and cleanup. Large tasks that many of you so generously helped
with.
And welcome to the wonderful individuals who, as of this Easter, have been formally received into the Catholic
Church. Our parish and our Church is made more beautiful by these new members.
Easter is a joyous time and my life is made more joyous by the wonderful individuals above and all of you who
give so much to the parish, most importantly by your presence.
Happy Easter and see you at Mass,
Fr. Phillip

75 Minutes of Service
Hunger Taskforce Stockbox Build
Last Fall we had information and signups for these Hunger Task
Force projects. The dates were changed due to availability. Our
first night for this will be taking place on April 14th from 5:00 to
8:00 PM. The second date is May 7th from 5:00 to 8:00 PM.
We need between 15 – 25 volunteers on both nights to help build
food stock boxes for seniors. This is for 12 and over and must be
able to lift 30 pounds. I will be contacting those families that
signed up in the fall. Please call or email me if you are interested
in helping us for this event.

Simply the WORD
Catholic Scripture Study
What are you doing about your
call to live as Jesus’ disciple?
Do you know what you should be
doing about your call to live as Jesus’ disciple?
Simply the WORD is offering a four-week Scripture study in
which we will learn about Jesus’ call to discipleship, and how it
applies to each of us. In this short study, entitled Jesus’ Disciple—Me, Myself, and I, we will explore Jesus’ discipleship call
as explained in the Gospel of St. Luke.
The dates for our Discipleship Study are Thursday April 16th,
23rd, 30th, and May 7th.
Simply the WORD’s morning session meets Thursday mornings
from 9:15-11:00 AM, and our evening session is from 6:30-8:15
PM. We meet in the Christ King Parish Center (enter on 91st
Street through the double white doors north of the Church).
Newcomers are welcome to join us for this short exploration of
Jesus’ call to be His disciple.
To register, or for more information, contact Cindy Schmidt
[email protected] or 414-476-2413 (current Simply
the WORD participants need not re-register).

Becoming Catholic….
Have you ever thought about taking the next step? Perhaps you
have never been part of a Christian community or never been
baptized, but now you have felt drawn to begin this journey of
faith in Jesus Christ. Perhaps you’ve been baptized and raised in
another Christian tradition, but now you want to continue your
life of faith in the Catholic Church ... or at least explore what
that means. If either of these describes you, we would very
much like to hear from you. We want to listen to your story of
faith or non-faith, answer your questions, and share with you the
beauty, truth, and wonder of the Catholic faith. If you want to
know more, please contact the Parish Office at 414-258-2604.
