Sacred Heart Catholic Church Our Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe ~ November 24, 2019
Reflection from the Pastor:
Hope you all have a very Happy Thanksgiving! You are all be in my
prayers. I am praying in a special way for those who are missing someone
this holiday season and those of you who are traveling.
A prayer before traveling:
O almighty and merciful God, who has appointed the angels to guide and
protect us, command them to be our diligent companions from our setting
out until our return; to clothe us with their invisible protection; to keep us
from all danger; and finally, having preserved us from all evil, and
especially from sin, to guide us to our heavenly home. Through Jesus
Christ our Lord. Amen.
CHRIST THE KING
From today’s Preface: “making all things subject to his rule, he might
present to the immensity of your majesty an eternal and universal kingdom,
a kingdom of truth and life, a kingdom of holiness and grace, a kingdom of
justice, love and peace.”
“Dear brothers and sisters, today we proclaim this singular victory, by
which Jesus became the King of every age, the Lord of history: with the
sole power of love, which is the nature of God, his very life, and which has
no end. We joyfully share the splendor of having Jesus as our King: his rule
of love transforms sin into grace, death into resurrection, fe ar into trust.”
~ Pope Francis

this weekend of discernment, participants will receive
wisdom through prayer, presentations by religious sisters,
recreation, and fellowship. Single women, age 18-30 who
are seeking to do God's will, are invited to attend the
upcoming Fiat Discernment Retreat on December 20-22,

Council 2614 will hold its next meeting on
Monday, November 25th. A First Degree

REVERSE THE RULING—PRO-LIFE EFFORT The Kansas Supreme Court recently created a nearly
unlimited “right to abortion” in our State Constitution. The
consequences are horrific. Taxpayer funded, late-term
abortions could soon take place in Kansas. Already today
as a direct result of the decision in Hodes & Nauser, MDs
v. Schmidt, live dismemberment abortions continue in
Kansas at a rate of about a dozen a week.
The only way to realistically overturn this shocking
decision and place limits on the abortion industry is to
REVERSE THE RULING by amending the State
Constitution. The Catholic Church in Kansas is helping to
lead this effort to pass a state constitutional amendment.
The first step is encouraging everyone to sign the
REVERSE THE RULING petition which will be
available in the back of church. Learn more about this
effort at www.KansasCatholic.org
Council 2614 Knights are asking that all parishioners
consider signing the Reverse the Ruling petition sheets at
any church entrance or take the provided cards at the
entrances or in the pews and drop them into the collection
baskets during Mass. We will coordinate gathering all
sheets and cards with the Parish Office and send all
signatures in to the Kansas Catholic Conference after the
Monday, November 25th meeting. Thank you for your
stand for LIFE!

Meditación: ¡Deseo que todos ustedes tengan muy Feliz Día de Acción de Gracias! Todos ustedes están en mis oraciones. Estoy
haciendo oración en una forma muy especial para todos aquellos quienes tengan a alguien ausente en esta temporada de
celebraciones y por todos ustedes quienes estén viajando.
Una oración antes de viajar:
Oh poderoso y misericordioso Dios, quien ha designado a los ángeles para que nos guíen y protejan, ordénales que sean
nuestros eficientes compañeros desde nuestros orígenes y hasta que regresemos; para investirnos con su invisible
protección; para mantenernos alejados de todo peligro; y finalmente que nos mantengan lejos de toda maldad, y
especialmente lejos del pecado, para guiarnos a nuestro santo hogar. Por nuestro Señor Jesús Cristo nuestro
Señor. Amen
CRISTO EL REY
Del prefacio de Hoy:"haciéndonos a todos sujetos de esta ley, el podría presentar a la inmensidad de tu majestad un Reyno
eterno y universal, un Reyno de verdad y vida, un Reyno de santidad y gracia, un Reyno de justicia, amor y Paz."
"Queridos hermanos y hermanas, hoy proclamamos está singular victoria, por la cual Jesús es el Ry de todas las eras, el
Señor de Historia: con el solo poder del amor, quien es la naturaleza de Dios, su misma vida, y por la cual no tiene fin.
Nosotros con alegría compartimos el esplendor de tener a Jesus como nuestro Rey: Su ley de amor transforma el pecado en
gracia, la muerte en resurrección, el temor en confianza."
~ Papa Francisco
