Feast of Christ the King

Tomorrow is the last Sunday of the liturgical year the Feast of Christ the King. Here’s a link to Fr. Baron’s Top 10 Resources for this day. And here is a link to Quas Primas the encyclical of Pope Pius XI which instituted the Feast of Christ the King in 1925.

Here are a couple of quotes from Quas Primas:

While nations insult the beloved name of our Redeemer by suppressing all mention of it in their conferences and parliaments, we must all the more loudly proclaim his kingly dignity and power, all the more universally affirm his rights.

And quoting Pope Leo XIII:

His empire includes not only Catholic nations, not only baptized persons who, though of right belonging to the Church, have been led astray by error, or have been cut off from her by schism, but also all those who are outside the Christian faith; so that truly the whole of mankind is subject to the power of Jesus Christ.
