The Feast of Christ the King
The Feast Day of Christ the King, also called Solemnity of Our Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe, is a feast celebrated in the Catholic Church in honour of Jesus Christ as Lord of all creation. The feast day was originally established by Pope Pius XI in 1925 to respond to a world that was rejecting Christ and was being dominated by secularism.
Making Jesus Real
Marty and Mitch are on the road again, engaging with schools for the support of Year 6 students who are preparing to make the move to secondary education.
The key messages are:
- that this is a new little step in life;
- there are many misconceptions about high school;
- asking questions to clarify understandings is really important;
- attitude is everything;
- you can commit to high standards of behavioural and learning goals and can work towards them step by step;
- there are new friends just waiting for you;
- hang with the eagles (who fly) and not with the turkeys (who scratch in the dust)
Throughout the remainder of the year, we ask that you keep the Grade 6 students in your prayers and give them a little bit of extra time, understanding and encouragement.
