Then Jesus approached and said to them, "All power
in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go,
therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing
them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and
of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I
have commanded you. And behold, I am with you
always, until the end of time." Mt 28: 18-20.
Apostolate Prayer
Christ has promised to His followers that anything asked in
His name will be given to them. We are bound together as a
community through our faith in God and His Son Jesus
Christ. It is the belief that the Spirit works through us all
that we call upon all to pray this month of May

All our graduates
TO ALL PARISH ORGANIZATIONS:
PLEASE WATCH THE BULLETIN FOR INFORMATION
CONCERNING THE YEARLY CALENDAR MEETING on
JUNE 3, 2008 at 7:00PM. Meeting in the conference
room to set up and co-ordinate our calendars for the
Spring and Fall of 2008.
"HOMELESS PREVENTION CARDS"
Please make the use of "homeless prevention cards"
a weekly habit. If you shop at one of the participating
markets it costs you nothing extra to help a family
from becoming homeless. If you shop elsewhere, you
may want to consider picking up a card in a smaller
amount for the purchase of weekly specials. Your
support throughout the year makes a real difference
to someone in need.
"This is the fast that pleases me ... sharing your
bread with the hungry and sheltering the poor."
Isaiah 58:6-7
We deposited $1075 into the Hope for Housing
account last week. You can buy a card after Mass
with cash or a check made out to Hope for Housing. If
you have any questions about the program, please
stop by the table in the church foyer. If you are willing
to sell cards after mass, please contact Kathy at (508)
795-1143 or kathjohn82@aol.com.
INTERFAITH HOSPITALITY NETWORK
Christ the King will once again host the Interfaith
Hospitality Network guests of our community May
11th through May 25th. Due to a non-negotiable
decision made by the city fire marshal, families can
no longer stay in neighborhood churches. We will
therefore host our families in the rectory of St.
Bernard at 236 Lincoln St., Worcester, during the
duration of their stay.
Sign up sheets will be in the entrance of the church
next weekend. Won't you please join us in this effort
to nurture and serve our families with your donations
of meals and hospitality. This ministry can not
survive without your generosity. If you are unable to
donate your time, financial gifts are welcome. For
questions, please call one of our coordinators.
