Solemnity of Our Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe – November 26, 2017

Gospel Reading: Matthew 25:31-46

“Amen, I say to you, whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me.”

In Catholic school communities, we have the opportunity to encourage our students to defend those who are marginalized in society: the unborn, the immigrant, the materially impoverished, the infirm, the elderly, and numerous others who be disadvantaged in some way. On the Solemnity of Christ the King, how can we impart to our students the Lord’s words regarding how to live according to his decrees?

Are any of your students “the least of these,” who need a reminder of God’s love for them?
