Mass - November 22: The Solemnity of Our Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe

NOTE: We want to remind you that Bishop Stika has extended his dispensation to Catholics living in the Diocese of Knoxville from their obligation to attend Sunday Mass until further notice. The gift of Spiritual Communion is being offered to all of the faithful who participate in daily and Sunday Masses online. Spiritual Communion is not a substitute for receiving the Eucharist, but it does provide a way to unite ourselves to God through prayer. “Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally, come spiritually into my heart…” these are the words of St. Alphonsus Ligouri, and they are commonly used during the Act of Spiritual Communion, which can be prayed at any time and in any place.

Readings for this Sunday can be found at https://bible.usccb.org/bible/reading.... THANK YOU for continuing to support the needs of our parish! We know it is a difficult time for many, and we pray that God shines His blessings upon all our parishioners and their families.
