Pope Pius XI, in his encyclical Quas Primas, (1925) ins�tuted the Feast of Christ the King during the holy year commemora�ng the

1600th anniversary of the Council of Nicea which took place in 325. The Pope wished to affirm the “Kingly dignity of Christ” by remem-

bering the words of the Nicene Creed, “and his Kingdom will have no end.” In doing so he also wished to correct the false ideologies of

na�onalism, materialism, secularism and an�-clericalism that were beginning to arise in many places. These “false ideologies” already

dominant in Russia, soon became manifest in formerly Catholic areas such as Italy, Germany and Mexico. For example, only two years

a4er the publica�on of Quas Primas, on November 23, 1927, the Jesuit priest Blessed Miguel Pro was executed by the an�-Catholic gov-

ernment of Mexico. Facing his execu�oners, Fr. Miguel forgave the firing squad, stretched out his arms in the form of a crucifixion and

proclaimed, “Viva Cristo Rey!” (Long live, Christ the King!)

Pope Francis I, in his encyclical Lumen Fidei has said, “The light of faith is unique, since it is capable of illumina�ng every aspect of hu-

man existence. A light so powerful, that it cannot come from ourselves but from a more primordial source: in a word, it must come

from God. Faith is born of an encounter with the living God who calls us and reveals his love, a love which precedes us and upon which

we can lean for security and for building our lives. Transformed by this love, we gain fresh vision, new eyes to see; we realize that it con-

tains a great promise of fulfillment and that a vision of the future opens up before us. Faith, received from God as a supernatural gi4,

becomes a light for our way, guiding our journey through �me. Those who have opened their hearts to God’s love hear his voice and

receive his light and cannot keep this gi4 to themselves. Since faith is hearing and seeing, it is also handed on as word and light.”

When Pope Pius XI first established the Feast of Christ the King, he called upon the men and women of his age to boldly proclaim the

truth of the Gospel to their contemporaries and to promote and defend the rights of Christ and His Church against those who were

usurping Divine preroga�ves and ignoring basic human rights: “This state of things may perhaps be aGributed to a certain slowness and

�midity in good people, who are reluctant to engage in conflict and manifest only weak resistance; thus the enemies of the Church be-

come bolder in their aGacks. But if the faithful were generally to understand that it behooves them ever to fight courageously under

the banner of Christ their King, then fired with apostolic zeal, they would strive to win over to their Lord those hearts that are biGer and

estranged from him, and would valiantly defend his rights.”

As ci�zens of the United States, we have no king. However, we are members of a democra�c republic, with a wriGen cons�tu�on that

defends basic human rights, defines a limited government and prohibits any laws that deny the free exercise of religion. As Catholics

exercising our religious liberty, we proudly proclaim that Christ is our King, not just at Mass but wherever we are – at home or at work,

at school or at play, in government or in business, in our chari�es and our hospitals. In this we are united as we “fight courageously

under the banner of Christ the King” for liberty and jus�ce for all.

“The way to plan the family is natural family planning, not

contraception. In destroying the power of giving life, through

contraception, a husband or wife… turns

the attentions to self and so it destroys the

gifts of love in him or her. In loving, the

husband and wife must turn the attention to

each other as happens in natural family plan-

ning...”

- Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta

“Through his victory, Jesus has opened to us his kingdom.

But it is for us to enter into it, beginning with our life now–

his kingdom begins now– by being close in concrete ways

to our brother and sister who ask for bread, clothing, ac-

ceptance, solidarity, catechesis. If we truly love them, we

will be willing to share with them what is most precious to

us, Jesus himself and his Gospel.”

- Pope Francis, Homily on Solemnity of Christ the

King, 23 November 2014.
