Craycroft Road "Whoever hears my voice hears the truth CHRIST IS KING On the final Sunday of the liturgical year we celebrate the feast of Christ the King. It's easy to understand today's scriptures as events that happened long ago and far away, or predictions that will come true somewhere, some day. But they invite us to claim Christ as our King here and now. Jesus' words to Pilate in the Gospel remind us that his kingdom transcends time and place. And the prophecies from Daniel and Revelation give us reason to be faithful to Christ our King right here and right now. By concluding the year with this feast we are proclaiming our faith that Jesus Christ is the one and only King over all seasons, all peoples, and all of creation. No matter what nation we belong to or what language we speak, he "has made us into a kingdom" (Revelation 1 :6)-one people united in love and peace for all eternity. Copyright J. S. Paluch Co., Inc. CRISTO ES REY El ultimo domingo del aria liturqlco celebramos la fiesta de Cristo Rey. Puede que entendamos las lecturas de hoy coma acontecimientos que sucedieron hace mucho, mucho tiempo o predicciones que se haran realidad alqun dla en alqun lugar. Pero en realidad nos invitan a aclamar a Cristo coma nuestro Rey aqui y ahora. Las palabras de Jesus a Pilatos en el Evangelia nos recuerdan que su Reino trasciende el tiempo y el espacio. Y las profedas de Daniel y del Apocalipsis nos dan motives para ser fieles a Cristo, nuestro Rey, aqul y ahora. Al terminar el aria con esta fiesta proclamamos nuestra fe en que Jesucristo es el unico Rey de todos las tiempos, pueblos y de toda la Creaci6n. Sin importar cual sea nuestra nacionalidad ni que idioma hablemos: Cristo "y ha hecho de nosotros un reino" (Apocalipsis 1 :6), en un pueblo unido en el amor y la paz par toda la eternidad.
