From the Catholic Liturgy for Christ the King Sunday, Nov. 20, 2016. Today we celebrate two events: the great feast in honor Jesus Christ King of All Creation, and the end of the Jubilee Year of Mercy called by Pope Francis last December. Both of these events call us to personal transformation in our lives so that the social and political transformation of our society in Christ may blossom.  We place ourselves under the Lordship of Jesus and as members of the His Kingdom we seek to bring the Kingdom-values of justice, peace, charity and mercy into out own world, renewing society and reforming our culture, person by person, heart by heart, until Christ rein in all.  St. Miguel Pro, SJ, is patron saint and outstanding example of seeking this social renewal in the Name of Christ the King! (Note: forgot to hit "end" after homily so the Creed is also recorded.)
