Solemnity of Christ the King (Year C) | Jesus Our Loving King | Catechism for Kids | 23 Nov 2025

What kind of king wears a crown of thorns and rules from a Cross? 👑✝️ On November 23, 2025, the Church celebrates the Solemnity of Christ the King (Year C) — the final Sunday of the liturgical year — reminding us that Jesus is not a king like the rulers of this world. His kingdom is built on mercy, forgiveness, and everlasting love. In this episode of Catechism for Kids, we explore what it means to call Jesus “King of the Universe.” Instead of armies, He brings peace. Instead of swords, He offers healing. Instead of thrones lined with gold, He reigns from a Cross — winning our hearts forever. Year C’s Gospel (Luke 23:35–43) tells the touching story of the Good Thief who turns to Jesus in his final moments and hears the beautiful promise: 👉 “Today you will be with me in Paradise.” Kids discover that Jesus is the King who saves, forgives, and welcomes everyone who comes to Him with a sincere heart. 📖 Topics we’ll cover: What the Solemnity of Christ the King celebrates The meaning of “King of the Universe” Why Jesus’ kingship is different from earthly kings The story of the Good Thief (Year C Gospel) How Jesus’ kingdom is built on love, mercy, and truth What kids can learn about following Christ the King every day 💡 Lesson: Jesus is the King who rules with love, forgives completely, and invites us into His kingdom of peace and joy. If we stay close to Him, our hearts will shine like His. 🕊️💛 #CatechismForKids #ChristTheKing #YearC #FeastOfChristTheKing #CatholicKids #FaithFormation #CatholicEducation #CatholicChurch #LiturgicalYear #GoodThief #JesusOurKing #KidsFaith #Solemnity
