As of July 1, we will welcome Michelle Whitney to the position of Pastoral Associate at Christ the King Parish. Michelle has her Masters degree in Pastoral Studies and has been an active member of our parish for many years as well as becoming increasingly involved as a staff member.

MASS REQUESTS—To simplify our bookkeeping procedure for Mass stipends, we will no longer schedule a Mass until it is paid for. We are sorry for the inconvenience but it is getting impossible to reconcile our Mass stipends some weeks. Envelopes will soon be available in the pews to use for Mass requests and stipend payments.

Envelope Information
People who use only one envelope a month can use the lower half of their contribution information and their mailing envelope to make their contribution either by mail or the collection basket. Do not include DMF or Mass oferrings.
Those who wish to donate weekly and did not pick up their packet at the beginning of the year, need to come to the office and pick up a weekly envelope packet for the rest of the year as these are not mailed.

 You can combine with your tithe , your building fund and needy contributions  and other donations of your choice except mass offerings and your DMF donation. Those who use weekly envelopes will receive quarterly statements. Please note that designating "other" is not your tithe but goes to special collections for that particular month or something you designate. If there are no special collections, and you do not specify a special need, your contribution will be posted to tithe.

 Your  September newsletter  is posted. Msgr. Tom's Connection Letter. Please read this letter - Msgr. Tom  has wonderful advice and direction for all of us to improve our lives. Information for the parish picnic, RE, youth group (FROG), Confirmation sponsors, the  RCIA schedule, and a message from our Bishop. Copies of the newsletter are available in the Narthex if you do not receive one.
