Our Bishop’s Annual Stewardship Appeal (BASA) is now underway. If you are a registered member of our parish or another parish in our diocese, you may have received a mailing from Bishop Estévez, asking for your support and participation in this year’s Annual Appeal.

Please prayerfully consider a pledge to the Appeal using gift options on the response card mailed to you or by completing a commitment envelope at Mass February 13/14.

Volunteers are needed to lead the praying of the Rosary before the 9:00 a.m. Sunday Mass. Please call the Rectory.

Christ the King Early Learning Center is hiring.

To apply visit: hr.dosafl.com/careers If you have any questions please call or email Rachel Borenstein, at director@ctkearlylearning.com

Remember, Bishop Estevez and the Diocese of St. Augustine requires that a child who wants to receive 1st Holy Communion or Confirmation need to be in Sacrament Preparation classes for 2 years. We need to have your 1st graders and 7th graders participating in classes this year!

If you are interested in joining us but haven’t registered yet, please call Sandy Hill at 904-553-8958 or email me at sandy@ctkcatholic.com. Registration forms and calendars are located on this page to the left.

Loving God, Holy One, Your desire is for our wholeness and well-being. We hold in tenderness and prayer the collective suffering of our world at this time.We grieve precious lives lost and vulnerable lives threatened. We ache for ourselves and our neighbors, standing before an uncertain future. We pray: May love, not fear, go viral. Inspire our leaders to discern and choose wisely, aligned with the common good. Help us to practice social distancing and reveal to us new and creative ways to come together in spirit and in solidarity. Call us to profound trust in your faithful presence, You, the God who does not abandon, You, the Holy One, breathing within us, breathing among us, breathing around us in our beautiful yet wounded world. Amen

Merciful God, hear our fervent prayer for all who suffer from the coronavirus. May those who are infected receive the proper treatment and the comfort of your healing presence. May their caregivers, families and neighbors be shielded from the onslaught of the virus. Give solace to those who grieve the loss of loved ones. Protect and guide those who strive to find a cure, that their work may conquer the disease and restore communities to wholeness and health. Help us to rise above fear. We ask all this through the intercession of Our Lady of Lourdes, and in the name of your Son, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit, now and forever. Amen.

Most merciful and compassionate God, Giver of Life and Love, hear our prayers and let our cries come unto you. We weep with your people We hear the cries of orphaned children and laments of bereaved parents We feel the desperation of those searching for loved ones We behold the silence of vanished villages. We see the devastation. We are overwhelmed by the enormity of it all. Our hearts are hushed, our minds are numb. Let not our hands be stopped, our voices dumb. God of the universe, Open our hearts to feel your compassion Galvanize in us the act of continued giving Bond us to our sisters and brothers in need Comfort and heal the injured, the bereaved, the lost Strengthen the aid workers and medical personnel Bolster the resolve of governments and those with power to help Open through this tragedy pathways to partnerships and peace In Your Name of mercy and healing and compassion we pray. Amen
