The Bishop was desirous that every heart might know the compassion of Christ the King. He asked His Sisters to pray, sacrifice and do everything for Christ the King and for the salvation of souls. He wanted His Sisters to live totally under the Kingship and reign of their Spouse of Christ the King. He told us, "Let Christ reign in your heart and in the hearts of all you meet."
When Bishop Flavin was named Bishop of Lincoln, Nebraska in 1967 he continued to live out his motto by touching everything he did with the flavor of Christ the King ~ including His Sisters,
whom he named The School Sisters of Christ the King.
Bishop Glennon Patrick Flavin chose the motto
UT CHRISTUS REGNET, That Christ May Reign,
when he was appointed Auxilirary Bishop in Saint Louis in 1957.
