Christ the King
School
Peggy Warner, Principal • 404-233-0383 • www.christking.org
As of August 12, 2011, more than $22M in education tax credits have
already been approved by the State of Georgia Department of Revenue…so
the $50M cap will certainly be met this year. Get your TP1 form in ASAP if
you want to take advantage of this cost-free way to support Catholic
education!
Georgia Private School Tax Credit – GRACE
Scholars, Inc.
In 2008, the state of Georgia passed legislation
that established the Georgia Private School Tax
Credit. This law allows Georgia taxpayers to
divert a portion of their state tax obligation to a
Student Scholarship Organization (SSO) of their choosing to be used as financial
aid at a Georgia private school. Soon after this piece of legislation was passed, the
Archdiocese of Atlanta partnered with the Archdiocese of Savannah to form
GRACE Scholars, Inc., the Catholic SSO allowed under this law.
Since Christ the King School started participating in the GRACE Scholars
program, the school has received $264,000 in funds to be used for scholarships
for worthy students with need. In total, the amount raised currently funds 10
students at CKS, with more added each year.
If you owe Georgia State taxes and would like to divert a portion of those taxes to
Christ the King School, or any other Catholic school in Georgia, please consider
participating in the Georgia Private School Tax Credit program.
How to Contribute:
There is a two-step process in order to participate, so the sooner that one starts the
process the better chance they will have to take advantage of this extraordinary tax
opportunity. All donors need to first fill out an approval form that must be mailed
to the State of Georgia to ensure that the state’s cap of $50 million for the program
is not exceeded. Once approved, donors will receive written notice from the state
that they can contribute directly to the SOO of their choice. Donors then need to
fill out a GRACE Scholars Designation Form and mail that, along with their check,
to GRACE Scholars, Inc. All checks must be received by GRACE Scholars before
December 31, 2011 in order to count for this tax year. Both forms can be
downloaded by going to www.gracescholars.org/share/twosteps.

Ezekiel: Monday Sept. 26 - Dec. 12
“Living without fear by being prepared” Ezekiel was called by God to tell the people that He
is faithful in the midst of trials and in the fulfillment of His promises. Even though they
rebelled against God in many ways, He would not abandon them. God appointed Ezekiel to
watch over them and warn them what would happen if they didn’t repent and return to Him.
The book of Ezekiel will help you be prepared for whatever the future may hold. God does not
want you to live in fear—He wants you to trust Him and know that He and He alone is your
God. Join us for an exciting journey through the book of Ezekiel.

choose “the better part”—a joyful life of intimacy with him that flows naturally into loving
service. ~~ Joanna Weaver

New! Rainbows Program
As part of our parish’s commitment to serving the needs
of the whole child, we are excited to launch the Rainbows program beginning on
Tuesday, October 18. Rainbows is an internationally recognized organization that
provides peer support groups for children who are dealing with the emotions that
result from a core-family loss such as death, divorce, deployment, deportment,
incarceration or abandonment. The Rainbows curriculum emphasizes listening
and communication skills to help participants sort out confusion, anger and other
emotions. Participants will gather weekly for confidential sessions with their peers
and a trained facilitator, and they are guided through activities and reflections
designed to help them better understand their grief and thus begin the healing
process.
The Rainbows program will meet at the Cathedral on Tuesday evenings, and the
program is free and open to parish and school families. A Parent Information
Session will be held on Tuesday, October 11 at 7pm. Group sessions for children
in grades 1 through 8 begin at 6 pm on Tuesday, October 18. In addition, the
Cathedral is seeking volunteers to serve as Facilitators for the Rainbows program.
In this role, you will lead peer-support groups for children in grades 1-8. You
must be over 21 years of age, be able to maintain the confidentiality of the group
you are facilitating, and not have suffered a core-family loss yourself within the
last 12 months. Facilitators are provided with training, curriculum, lesson plans
and all materials. For more information, please contact Kristen Felty, CTK’s

CATHEDRAL OF CHRIST THE KING
MINISTRY
SPOTLIGHT
[Editor’s Note: Each week, we’ll get to know
a volunteer serving with one of the
ministries that will be represented at the
Festival of Ministries on Saturday & Sunday,
September 24 & 25.]
Food Pantry Volunteer
at BCM
Jane Simons has been volunteering
with the Buckhead
Christian Ministry
(BCM) food pantry
for the last four
years. Before
working at the
BCM food pantry,
she had never
reached out to the
community like
this. Jane says her involvement was
accidental: A friend from her exercise
class invited her to come for a tour
and promised her that “she’d like
it.” Jane went on the tour and saw the
people who needed assistance and the
work going on in the food pantry, and
it all just clicked.
“I realized that the food coming in
from the church’s food drive was
going out to the people I met in the
lobby.” She later went to a volunteer
dinner that had as it keynote
speakers, recipients of the food she
had packed. When they talked about
how their families would have gone
hungry without the food she and
other volunteers packed, she was
hooked.
Do you know of someone who might
be a great fit for a particular
ministry? Encourage them to attend
our Festival of Ministries on
September 24 and 25 or look online

Celebrating the Lord’s Day
On Sunday, we gather as the Body of Christ to celebrate the
Lord’s Day, the day of Christ’s Resurrection. As “the first day
of the week” (Mk 16:2), it symbolizes the new creation
ushered in by the Resurrection of Christ. Thus, it has become
for Christians the first of all days and of all feasts
(Compendium of the Catechism of the Catholic Church, no.
452). This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice in it
and be glad (Ps 118:24). Each Sunday is a “little Easter”—a
celebration of the central mysteries of our faith.

of the Eucharistic Liturgy and the reception of Holy

Keeping Sunday-All Day
Celebrating the Sunday Eucharist—though central and
essential—does not complete our observance of Sunday. In
addition to attending Mass each Sunday, we should also
refrain “from those activities which impede the worship of
God and disturb the joy proper to the day of the Lord or the

of rest may seem odd in a world that runs 24/7, where we are
the memorial of his Passion, death, and Resurrection? This
tethered to our jobs by a variety of electronic gadgets, where
celebration is not a solitary, private event. Instead, we come

together as the People of God, the Church, to worship with

LA CARIDAD EN LA COMUNIDAD
La liturgia de este domingo pone énfasis en la práctica de la caridad en situaciones
particulares. Esta lectura es sobre la caridad con respecto al malvado. ¿Qué es caridad
en este caso? Es confrontar al malvado con su pecado y malas obras.
MINISTERIO HISPANO
Teléfono 404-267-3696
En ocasiones esto puede parecer inútil. El profeta, sin embargo, nos recuerda el deber
de una denuncia adecuada, aun si el malvado no escucha, Si no lo hacemos, nosotros
también hacemos mal.
Horario
Lunes a Viernes 8:30 AM - 4:30 PM
Domingos 9:30 AM - 4:00 PM
En la segunda lectura, San Pablo también escribe sobre la caridad. La caridad es la
fuente de nuestras buenas obras; la falta de caridad es la fuente del mal que hacemos.

El pecado, por lo tanto, es siempre, de alguna manera, contra la caridad. O la caridad
debida a Dios, o a los demás, o a uno mismo.
En el Evangelio de hoy Jesús aborda algunos casos de caridad práctica.
Primero: La caridad como corrección fraterna. Para que la corrección sea caritativa y
productiva debe seguir el consejo de Jesús. Debe ser hecha privadamente, evitando
situaciones embarazosas para el otro. Solo como ultimo recurso, si nuestro hermano o
hermana no nos escuchan y sus hechos son perjudiciales para la comunidad, pedimos a
la autoridad intervenir.
Segundo: La caridad es el lazo de la comunidad cristiana. Sin caridad (solidaridad,
reconciliación, fraternidad) una comunidad cristiana no es nada. Es como un cuerpo sin
alma. ¿Por qué esto es así? La caridad significa que el Espíritu Santo está presente. El es
la fuente de toda caridad y el vínculo de la comunidad. Como el Espíritu es el Espíritu
de Cristo, sus palabras en el Evangelio tienen sentido: “Donde dos o tres están reunidos
en mi nombre, yo estoy en medio de ellos”.
Tercero: La caridad fraterna da a la oración un especial valor y fuerza. Por eso la oración
comunitaria es tan importante en la Iglesia. Por eso, en momentos y necesidades
importantes, la Iglesia convoca a los cristianos a reunirse en oración. La oración fraterna
y persistente siempre llega al corazón de Dios.
