CTK Parish Assigns Specific Themes for Each Sunday of the Month

For every month of 2018, Christ the King Parish will celebrate each Sunday as a special Sunday.

The first Sunday of every month has already been called Stewardship Sunday. This is when the focus is on ‘Stewardship as a Way of Life’ in the parish community.

The second Sunday of each month of 2018 will henceforth be Clergy and Consecrated Persons Sunday, with focus on the clergy and the religious orders.

The third Sunday of every month will be known as Outreach Sunday. On these Sundays, the parish will entertain appeals from other diocese and religious orders for financial assistance to restore renovate damaged worship structures, provide funding for disaster relief and reconstruction, and assist with rural based church-organized projects. Assigning the 3rd Sunday as Outreach Sunday also imposes a long-needed discipline to the numerous requests for second collections regularly received by CTK.

The fourth Sunday will henceforth be tagged as Public Affairs Sunday, which brings into focus such nationally relevant issues as – war and conflict, extra-judicial killings, gender equality, justice for the underprivileged, poverty alleviation, and other socio-economic or political matters.
