THE ROSARY AT
CHRIST THE KING
OUR LADY’S 15 PROMISES OF THE ROSARY Whoever shall faithfully serve me by the recitation of the rosary,
shall receive signal graces. I promise my special protection and the greatest graces to all those
who shall recite the rosary. The rosary shall be a powerful armor against hell, it will destroy vice,
decrease sin, and defeat heresies.
MORNING ROSARY… You are warmly invited to join fellow parishioners in praying the Rosary after our 9:00am Mass each weekday.
CENACLE OF LIFE… Each Monday evening from 7:00pm to 8:00pm we gather in the Church to pray 10 decades of the Rosary for: CHILDREN IN DANGER OF ABORTION WOMEN IN UNPLANNED PREGNANCIES
THOSE SUFFERING FROM A PAST ABORTION THOSE WHO ARE ILL THE ELDERLY RESPECT FOR THE SANCTITY OF HUMAN LIFE THE CATHOLIC CHURCH THE PRIESTS OF OUR PARISH INCREASE IN VOCATIONS TO THE PRIESTHOOD OUR PERSONAL INTENTIONS
and the Divine Mercy Chaplet:
IN REPARATION FOR SINS COMMITTED AGAINST THE SANCTITY OF LIFE FOR THE CONVERSION OF SINNERS FOR FORGOTTEN SOULS IN PURGATORY AND FOR ALL THOSE WHO DIED THAT DAY
RESPECT LIFE ROSARY… On First Saturdays at 9:30am we meet in the Church and pray the JOYFUL MYSTERIES for an increase in Respect for the Sanctity of Human Life. We invite all to join us for this brief yet powerful rosary which is positively themed and appropriate for everyone. OUR ROSARY GROUPS
ARE OPEN TO ALL AND WE INVITE THOSE NEW TO THE ROSARY TO PLEASE JOIN US! PRAYER BOOKLETS & SHEETS ARE AVAILABLE FOR YOU. WE ARE HAPPY TO OFFER A SET OF ROSARY BEADS TO ANYONE WHO NEEDS THEM
It will cause virtue and good works to flourish;
it will obtain for souls the abundant mercy of God; it will withdraw the heart of men from the love of the world and its vanities, and will lift them to the desire of eternal things. “OH, THAT SOULS WOULD SANCTIFY THEMSELVES BY THIS MEANS” The soul which recommends itself to me by the recitation of the rosary
shall not perish.
Whoever shall recite the rosary devoutly,
applying himself to the consideration of its sacred mysteries, shall never be conquered by misfortune. God will not chastise him in His justice, he shall not perish by an unprovided death; if he be just he shall remain in the grace of God, and become worthy of eternal life. Whoever shall have a true devotion for the rosary
shall not die without the sacraments of the Church.
Those who are faithful to recite the rosary shall have,
during their life and at their death, the light of God and the plenitude of His graces; at the moment of death they shall participate in the merits of the saints in paradise. I shall deliver from purgatory those who have been devoted to the rosary. The faithful children of the rosary shall merit
a high degree of glory in heaven. You shall obtain all you ask of me by the recitation of the rosary. All those who propagate the holy rosary
shall be aided by me in their necessities. I have obtained from my Divine Son that all the advocates of the rosary
shall have for intercessors the entire celestial court during their life and at the hour of death. All who recite the rosary are my sons,
and brothers of my only son Jesus Christ. Devotion to my rosary is a great sign of predestination.

THE SHEEPDOG’S PRAYER The Knights of Olde were Men of Honor Who used their Might For Right Today they’re known as Sheepdogs, Those who carry on the fight. I am a tired old Sheepdog, The guardian of my flock. I keep the predators at bay And stand watch around the clock. Please stop the Sheep from pulling my teeth, I’ll need them for the fight, When the hungry Wolves come calling Some dark and deadly night. I pray I never need my gun, But, someday if I do, May my cause be just, My draw be quick, And my aim be ever true.
CHRIST THE KING’S PARISH OFFICE WILL BE CLOSED ON MONDAY, MAY 27 TH
IN OBSERVANCE OF
MEMORIAL DAY. During this 3 day weekend when we mark the unofficial start of summer, sadly, the real reason for the holiday is often forgotten. If you have Monday off from work, why not join us for our 9am Mass? It is being offered for all those who gave their lives in service to our Country.
Heaven holds a special place For those who do the deed, Defenders of the innocent In their hour of need. May the Sheep someday be grateful, There’s a debt they cannot pay, To the Sheepdogs who lay it on the line Each and every day. I am proud to be a Sheepdog. I’ve done my very best. I’ll stand my watch until my Maker Calls me home to rest. But when I meet Saint Peter, There’s just one request I’ll make: “Please let me spend Eternity Standing guard at Heaven’s Gate.”
