Christ the King - 2009
Pope Pius XI entered this Mass, a Solemnity in the Church’s liturgical celebrations, into the Church’s calendar in 1925. In the life of the Church this is something that rarely happens. So we should ask, “Why?” why did the pope establish this Solemnity? What is so important about it? As always, context leads us to discover his reasoning.
33rd Sun [B] 2009
Every year at this time the Church has us face the apocalyptic, those terrible endings we suffer in our own personal lives, as well as cataclysmic endings of our collective civilizations in our human epochs and eras. History is filled with them. Questions and concerns about the end of the world abound in our day as they have throughout our past. The Internet gives us prophecies about the end of the world coming in the year 2012. Is there an asteroid headed directly at us? Will some terrorist fanatics set off a nuclear bomb in one of our cities?
