CATHEDRAL OF CHRIST THE KING
Adult Confirmation
Why do Catholics need the
Sacrament of Confirmation?
Confirmation confers upon us
special graces and gifts of the Holy
Spirit. It can change our lives by
increasing and deepening all of the
graces we received at baptism.
The Five Effects of
Confirmation:
 Roots us more deeply as sons/




daughters of God
Unites us more firmly to Christ
Increases the gifts of the Holy
Spirit in us,
Renders our bond with the
Church more perfect
Gives special strength to spread
and defend the faith by word
and action, as true witnesses of
Christ and to never be ashamed
of the Cross.
Begins September 30, 2013
Kenny Hall, Mondays 6:30 - 8:15
pm
Sacrament of Confirmation will
be celebrated at the

The Sunday readings come from the lectionary, the Church’s official list of
readings for liturgical use. There are three cycles to the lectionary: Cycle A, B
and C. The readings offer an easy and interesting way to study Scripture and
grow in your relationship with Jesus Christ as you stay in touch with the
Church year.
Join us and make the Mass more meaningful by studying the Sunday readings
and applying them to your daily life.

Virgin of Charity
Mass
In the Year of
Faith, we invite
you to join the
Cuban-American
community of
Atlanta in the
celebration of the feast of Our
Blessed Mother Mary, the Virgin
of Charity, patroness of Cuba.
A Solemn Mass in honor of the
Virgin of Charity will be
celebrated at the Cathedral of
Christ the King on Saturday,
September 7 at 7 pm. The main
celebrant will be the Most Rev.
Luis Rafael Zarama, Auxiliary
Bishop of Atlanta, accompanied
by priests of the Archdiocese.
The celebration will begin with a
Procession at 6:30 pm from the
CKS Recreation Field. A reception
will follow Mass.
FOCUS ON THE SAINTS: Blessed Junípero Serra, O.F.M.
Founder of the Spanish missions in California
As a young man in Spain, Blessed Junípero Serra joined the Franciscan order and began a
short career as a professor, famous for his preaching. When he was thirty-five, he suddenly
began to yearn for the life of a missionary in the New World. He left everything behind and
boarded a ship bound for Vera Cruz, Mexico. On his way to Mexico City, an insect bite
infected his leg so badly that walking pained him for the rest of his life. Among his many
great accomplishments as a missionary are listed two particularly: It was he whose insistence and dedication brought
about the "Regulation" protecting the Native Americans and the missions. He is also known for founding the great
mission of San Juan Capistrano, in California. He founded 21 missions and taught the Native Americans many
trades, from farming to crafting.
PRAYER FOR INTERCESSION OF BLESSED JUNÍPERO
O God, in your ineffable mercy, you chose Blessed Junípero Serra as a means of gathering many peoples of the Americas into
your Church. Grant that through his intercession our hearts may be united to you in ever greater love so that at all times and in
all places we may show forth the image of your Only-Begotten Son our Lord Jesus Christ, who lives and reigns with you in the
unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.

CATHEDRAL OF CHRIST THE KING
What is an Active
Parishioner?
Our parishioners are often asking us
to verify that they are an “active
practicing Catholic.” The question of
parishioner status is important
because this question comes up in
many circumstances such as





Certification as godparents/
sponsors for Baptisms and
Confirmation
Active parishioner tuition rates in
Catholic schools
Marriage/Baptism preparation
Scheduling of the facilities for
services such as Baptisms,
Weddings and Funerals
Enrolling children in our
programs
In practice, Parishioner verification is
done by looking equally at three
criteria: Registration, Regular Mass
Attendance, and Financial and Time
Support.
If you have any questions regarding
the parishioner verification process,
please contact Molly Kerr at
[email protected].
Msgr. Frank McNamee encourages
you to be an active member of our
parish. Your parish – and your own
faith life – is enriched and
strengthened by the participation of
our members!

Queridas familias de la Catedral de Cristo
Rey,
Tal como les informé hace algunas semanas, nuestra Catedral tiene la bendición de
contar actualmente con 3 sacerdotes bilingües: Padre John Howren, Padre John
Kieran y Padre Feiser Muñoz. Ustedes ya los conocen, pues ellos han venido
celebrando los Sacramentos en las últimas semanas. Ellos están muy contentos de
ser parte de nuestra Catedral y tienen muchas ganas de trabajar con nuestra
comunidad Hispana.
Con la finalidad de servir mejor a nuestros feligreses y de cumplir con las normas
de la Arquidiócesis de Atlanta, hemos hecho algunos cambios en la oficina del
Ministerio Hispano, los cuales explico a continuación:
Los horarios de confesión de la parroquia son: Lunes y Miércoles 7:15 - 8 am y
6-6:30 pm. Sábados 8-8:30am y 3-4:30 pm. Las confesiones se realizan en los
confesionarios ubicados en la entrada lateral de la Catedral, junto al pasillo.
Siempre habrá por lo menos un sacerdote bilingüe esperando por usted. En caso
que usted necesite ayuda o consejo espiritual, le pido que por favor se comunique
con la
oficina del Padre Feiser.
Si usted desea bautizar a su hijo o hija, usted debe ser un miembro registrado y
activo de la Catedral de Cristo Rey, por lo menos tres (3) meses antes de solicitar
el bautizo. Los padres y padrinos deben asistir a una de las clases pre-bautismales
antes de solicitar la fecha para celebrar el bautizo. Adicionalmente, los padrinos
deben presentar una carta de autorización de su parroquia para poder ser
padrinos. Si usted está registrado en otra parroquia, debe traer una carta de
autorización de su párroco para poder celebrar el bautizo en la Catedral.
¿Qué significa ser miembro activo de la parroquia?
La Arquidiócesis de Atlanta define “feligrés activo” a aquellos miembros
registrados y devotos (esto es, que atienden la Misa dominical y en fiestas de
guardar), que contribuyen su tiempo, talento y recursos financieros a su
parroquia. En la práctica, la verificación de feligreses se hace mirando igualmente
tres criterios:
Registro:
Uno debe estar oficialmente registrado como parroquiano/feligrés de la Catedral,
como consta en nuestra base de datos parroquial, por un mínimo de: 3 meses
antes de solicitar un bautizo, 6 meses antes de solicitar un matrimonio o una
quinceañera. Tenemos formas de registro disponibles en la recepción y en
internet.
Asistencia regular a la Misa:
Los Católicos estamos obligados a participar de la Misa los Domingos y las fiestas
de guardar. La participación en la celebración comunal de la Eucaristía los
Domingos es un testimonio de nuestra Fe en Cristo y nuestra pertenencia a Su
Iglesia. Los fieles dan testimonio de esto a través de la comunión en la fe y la
caridad.
La recepción regular de su sobre de contribución en la colecta de los Domingos
(por lo menos una vez al mes) o participación en nuestro programa de ofertorio
electrónico o E-giving, nos permite medir objetivamente la regularidad de su
asistencia a Cristo Rey.

TWENTY-SECOND SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
SEPTEMBER 1, 2013
ADMINISTRACIÓN DE LOS BIENES DE DIOS
En el Evangelio de hoy, Jesús nos advierte que no pongamos nuestras esperanzas
en ser retribuidos, sino en el dar generosamente al pobre y al necesitado. ¡Esta
forma de dar, imita la abundancia en que Dios da, y Jesús nos asegura que realmente, es bendecida!

Continuación de la Carta de Monseñor McNamee
Contribución Financiera y de su tiempo:
El nivel de aporte financiero puede variar de familia en familia dependiendo del
ingreso familiar.
Cuando Usted contribuye con su parroquia, Usted está ayudando a construir el
Reino de Dios aquí en la tierra. Usted ayuda a construir el Reino al hacerse
miembro de una parroquia, siendo voluntario de uno de los casi 100 ministerios
de la parroquia, participando de uno de nuestros programas educativos y
contribuyendo financieramente para ayudar a cubrir las necesidades de su
parroquia.
Si usted desea celebar la Quinceañera de su hija en nuestra parroquia, debe
solicitar la fecha con un mínimo de 3 meses de anticipación. Su hija debe haber
recibido los sacramentos del Bautizo y la Eucaristía, ustedes y sus hijas deberán
participar del Taller de Quinceañeras. Además su hija debe pertenecer al grupo de
jóvenes (Life Teen) de nuestra Catedral o de otra parroquia.
Se que todos los cambios traen consigo alguna dificultad, por ello les pido su
paciencia y su comprensión en esta etapa de transición. Si tienen alguna consulta,
por favor comuníquese con nuestra oficina del Ministerio Hispano, ya sea en
persona o por teléfono al 404-267-3696.
Que Dios los bendiga,
Monseñor Frank McNamee
