April 5, 2015 Easter sunday My Dear Brothers and Sisters, May the joy and peace of the Lord Jesus fill all your hearts on this beautiful Easter Sunday. I take this opportunity to welcome not only our regular parishioners, but those who may be visiting from another city or another parish. This week we have experienced the story of Jesus’ passion and death. It is not a happy story. In fact, as we hear about Jesus being crucified on the cross, we hear a story about betrayal, abandonment, and injustice. It is a story of lies and meanness inflicted on an innocent victim. It sounds like the types of betrayal we read about in the news. Things that, sadly, still happen every day here on Earth. 2699 Peachtree Road, NE Atlanta, Georgia 30305 404-233-2145 www.cathedralofchristtheking.org WHAT’S INSIDE: But then, the story does not end with death. No, there is another chapter. The one in which Jesus rises from the dead. Good prevails. That is why the church asks us today to rejoice and be glad. The Christ who laid down his life for us is alive and present in our midst. We are filled with joy! Today Christ has won. And we know that in Christ we shall overcome. I wish you God’s blessings today and always. May the peace and joy of our risen Christ reign in our hearts and minds this holy season.

Volunteers Needed—Eucharistic Congress Eucharistic Congress 2015: “I will be with you always”. The Eucharistic Congress comes this year to the Georgia International Convention Center Friday, June 5th – Saturday, June 6th. Please prayerfully consider giving time as a volunteer… your generosity will be much appreciated. Volunteer registration closes as of May 1st so that plans may be made according to the number of volunteers committed at that time. Of particular need each year are volunteers for the Kids Track…please help spread the word that the number of children who can register and participate in the Kid Track depends completely on the number of adult volunteers registered by May 1st. Please register on-line using the link http://congress.archatl.com/ volunteers/. Elijah Cup At CTK, our parishioners have the opportunity to pray for vocations with the “Elijah Cup”. Praying for vocations is a responsibility and privilege of the laity. The “Elijah Cup” is a chalice that is presented to a family or individual each Sunday at the conclusion of the 9 am Mass. That family or individual takes the “Elijah Cup” home and uses it as a focal point while praying daily for an increase in religious vocations. In successive weeks, the “Elijah Cup” will be passed to other parishioners at the 9 am Mass. To participate in the Elijah Cup, call 404-267-3692. Snack Bag Making The next Snack Bag Making is Wednesday, April 8 at 6:30 pm in Conference Room 2. Please help us feed the hungry by making snack bags or donating nonperishable, individual pull top cans of a main dish item (such as chili, macaroni and cheese, spaghetti, beef stew or ravioli) and juice or milk box drinks for the snack bags. For more information, contact [email protected]. Blessed Charles de Foucauld - IMPORTANT MESSAGE The parish administrative offices will be closed Easter Monday, April 6 and there will be no confessions or activities that day. In addition, please note that all Masses and Rosaries will be held in D’Youville Chapel the week of April 6 due to the installation and removal of the stained glass windows in the Cathedral. We appreciate your patience during this time. 2 EASTER SUNDAY Around the Parish continued Facilitator Training—We Need You Your parish needs you! There are people who want to be Catholic who need teachers and sponsors. There are people who want to study the bible who need facilitators and leaders. There are adults and teens who want to learn about their Catholic faith and they need facilitators. Facilitator Training will be held on May 4 from 7—9 pm in Kenny Hall. You don’t have to be an expert theologian to be a skilled facilitator. Facilitation is a great way to learn more about your faith while getting to know others in the parish. Christ the King needs facilitators for RCIA, Bible studies, Adult faith formation and Parish Life programs. This one night workshop is a great opportunity to learn how to facilitate groups and help others. There’s no cost for this workshop but please RSVP so that we will have enough materials available. RSVP to Helen Young, [email protected], or Bernadette Flowers, [email protected]. Family Counseling Holy Family Counseling Center provides therapy for individuals, couples, and families from a Catholic worldview. For an appointment or more information, call 678-993-8494. Stewardship of Treasure How shall I repay the Lord for his goodness to me?” Psalm 116 According to the Gospel, Mary of Magdala arrived at the empty tomb first. Prompted by Mary, Peter and John arrived next and viewed the burial wrappings. Scripture tells us of St. John, “… he saw and believed.” This is the same John, the beloved disciple, positioned at Jesus’ side at the Last Supper, who stood at the foot of the cross, and, according to the Gospel, was one of the first to believe in the risen Christ. Like John, may the gift of Easter grace strengthen our faith and deepen our discipleship in the Lord so that we may proclaim, “Christ is risen. Alleluia!” Collections The Christ the King Conference of St. Vincent de Paul will be collecting money for the poor at the church doors Easter weekend. Please be generous. APRIL 5, 2015 It’s Easter—Did You Know?  In the old days, pretzels were associated with Easter because the twists of the pretzels were thought to resemble arms crossing in prayer.  In medieval times, a festival of ‘egg throwing’ was held in church. The priest would throw a hard-boiled egg to one of the choir boys, and then tossed from one choir boy to the next. Whenever the clock struck 12, whoever had the egg, was the winner and got to keep the egg.  The White House hosts an Easter Egg Roll on the front lawn each year. This tradition was started by President Ruthorford B. Hayes in 1878.  Americans consume over 16 million jellybeans on Easter, enough to circle the globe 3 times over.  76% of people eat the ears on chocolate bunnies first.  Easter is the celebration of the resurrection of Christ three days after his death. It is the oldest Christian holiday and the most important day of the church year. Due to Easter publishing dates, offertory information was not available at the time of printing. For your convenience, electronic giving is available at www.cathedralofchristtheking.org. 3 Blessings to all who remembered a friend or a loved one by donating to the Easter Flowers Decorations In Honor Of: Given By: Anne Abernethy Kevin Abernethy Patrick and Erin Abernethy Family Carlos Eduardo Anliker Thalia Assaf Mrs. Linda Beard The Brady’s of Corry, PA The Buckshaw’s of Corry, PA CRHP7Sisters Mary Jane Crawford Sean D’Loughy Eleanor Daly My Nanny and my Papa Eckstein Donna and Mike Egan Family and Friends—Living Katherine K.

They urge us to repentance, warn us of the dangers of sin, and announce the blessings of faithfulness. Their prophetic words speak to us even today, as they draw us closer to our heavenly Bridegroom, and show us how to share him with others. In Kenny Hall The Prophets: Messengers of God’s Mercy is a Catholic Bible study that will draw you closer to your heavenly Bridegroom. Come connect with your church family!

WWW.CATHEDRALOFCHRISTTHEKING.ORG Mis queridos hermanas y hermanos, Que la alegría y la paz de nuestro Señor Jesús llene sus corazones en este hermoso Domingo de Pascua. Aprovecho esta oportunidad para darle la bienvenida no solamente a nuestros feligreses de siempre, sino también a quienes nos visitan de otras ciudades o de otras parroquias. Esta semana hemos experimentado la historia de la pasión y muerte de Jesús. No es una historia feliz. De hecho, al escuchar la historia de la crucifixión de Jesús, escuchamos también una historia de traición, abandono e injusticia. Es una historia acerca de mentiras y maldad cometidas contra una víctima inocente. Suena como el tipo de historias que vemos en las noticias. Este tipo de cosas, tristemente, suceden aún en nuestros días en nuestra sociedad. Pero luego, la historia no termina con la muerte. No, esta historia tiene otro capítulo. El capítulo en el cual Jesús se levanta de la muerte. El bien prevalece. Estas es la razón por la cual la Iglesia nos urge a regocijarnos y a estar contentos. Cristo que dio su vida por nosotros, está vivo y presente entre nosotros. ¡Estamos llenos de alegría! Hoy Cristo ha vencido a la muerte. Y sabemos que en Cristo, podemos vencer todas las dificultades. Les deseo muchas bendiciones hoy y siempre. ¡Que la paz y la alegría de Cristo resucitado, reine en nuestros corazones y en nuestras mentes en este tiempo santo!

Animados por María, Pedro y Juan llegaron después y vieron las sábanas con las que se había envuelto el cuerpo de Jesús. La escritura nos dice de San Juan “.. Vió y creyó.” Este es el mismo Juan, el discípulo amado, que estuvo al lado de Jesús durante la Ultima Cena, que estuvo parado al pie de la cruz, y de acuerdo al Evangelio, fue uno de los primeros en creer en el Cristo resucitado. Como Juan, que el don de la gracia en este día de Pascua nos haga más fuertes en la fe y nos haga profundizar nuestro discipulado en el Señor, de tal manera que podamos proclamar: “Cristo ha resucitado. ¡Aleluya!” La información de la colecta no está disponible al momento de la impresión de este boletín.

Es Pascua, ¿sabía Usted que …? En tiempos antiguos, los pretzels eran asociados con la Pascua debido a que las vueltas de los pretzels se veían como brazos cruzados en oración. En tiempos medievales había un festival de “tirar el huevo” en la iglesia. El sacerdote le tiraba un huevo cocido a uno de los niños del coro, y este a otro, y así. Cuando el reloj tocaba las 12, quien tuviese el huevo, era el ganador y se quedaba con el huevo. Se consumen más de 16 millones de Jellybeans en Pascua en los Estados Unidos, cantidad suficiente para darle la vuelta a la tierra tres veces.
