We’re Still Here!!

Hi Everyone! I know it seems like we have been practicing “safe distancing” for months now, but I do see some signs of hope and that the end may be near. There is a plan now in place from our government to help transition the state and everyone back to normal and opening up again.

4 Phase Plan

With that in mind, here is what Catholics should expect and look forward to as we transition back into being able to gather once again physically as the Body of Christ-

What to Expect When Public Mass Resumes

We thank you for your wonderful support and patience as we struggle through navigating this new online environment.

We are still offering livestreamed daily Mass at 8AM on our YouTube channel as well as livestreamed Adoration with Exposition and Benediction at 6:30PM. You may have noticed that we have two scheduled livestreams from St. Paul’s Cathedral in Yakima listed on our channel. On May 15, we will be livestreaming the Transitional Diaconate Ordination Mass for Michael Kelly at 4:45PM and on May 22, we will be livestreaming the Priestly Ordination Mass of Deacon Edgar Quiroga Cebellos at 4:45PM. Please spread the word and come join us on those dates.

Christ the King Adult Religious Education

We are also continuing to call on our parishioners to check in on you and we have noticed that we have a lot of out of date phone numbers. So if you have changed your phone number or have updated your e-mail, please call the parish office so we can update our files.

We are also doing our very best to keep everyone updated, not only from the parish website, but from the new parish Facebook page as well!

Happy Easter! He is Risen! Alleluia!

Hello Everyone! And Happy Easter!! Rejoice! Be Glad!

This may seem hard to do right now, with all the fear, worry and stress going around due to the pandemic, but as Catholics, as Christians, we know Who holds all of us in His loving hands. We know Who is really in control (even when we want to be the one in control) and we know that He will take care of us. So we Rejoice!! We cry out once again, Alleluia!! He is Risen, death no longer holds it sway! Sin and death have been conquered!!

So come and rejoice, come and celebrate with us all Easter season! We are still holding livestreaming Daily Mass at 8AM, Monday through Friday. We also will still be livestreaming Exposition, Adoration and Benediction at 6:30PM- 7:30PM every weeknight as well from our Youtube channel- Christ the King Adult Religious Education

Here is the Spiritual Communion Prayer that is posted in the video description as well for every Mass:

“My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament. I love You above all things, and I desire to receive You into my soul. Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally, Come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already here and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You. Amen.”

Also, here is a beautiful poem about what we are experiencing right now with only spiritual communion- Spiritual Communion

We are still here, doing whatever we can to reach out to you, to serve your spiritual needs and be a parish community as best we can during this time. As always, please feel free to e-mail, call, text; however you wish to communicate, we are here for you. We miss you all!

Jesus is Risen! Alleluia!! Sing, Dance and Rejoice!
