We are approaching the end of the church's year with the feast of Christ the King; Jesus Christ, the king of the universe and the king of our hearts. The feast of Christ the King was established in 1925 by Pope Pius XI. Like now it was a time of turbulence in the world with the emergence of extreme political movements. The feast reminds us that ultimately the kingdom of God is built not on politics but on a foundation of love; love of God and each other. Christ is the the king triumphant now and forever, whatever happens we can be sure that his rule is established and everlasting as long as there are Christians to bear witness to his reign.
As always, God bless and keep you all; I assure you that keep your intentions in my prayers every day.
