Today’s Readings
NECESSARY REPETITION
First Reading —
When the wicked
turn away from their
wickedness they
have committed and
do what is right, they
shall surely live
(Ezekiel 18:25-28).
Psalm —
Remember your
mercies, O Lord
(Psalm 25).
Second Reading —
Consider others as
better than
yourselves; look not
to your own
interests, but to the
interests of others
(Philippians 2:1-11 [1
-5]).
Gospel — Tax
collectors and
prostitutes are
entering the kingdom
of God ahead of you
(Matthew 21:28-32).

Spiritual teachers tend to repeat
themselves, and to repeat other
teachers. Maybe there really aren’t
that many different truths to tell. Just
a lot of slow, sleepy human beings—
like us—who need to hear the basics
over and over. Consider today’s
readings. People complain that God
isn’t “fair,” and Ezekiel answers that
God is more than fair. People choose
their own fates, and people can change. Even evildoers can turn, do right,
and live. “Actions speak louder than words.” A fresh new insight? Hardly.
Paul tells the Philippians he would truly be encouraged if those who claimed
to believers would, in fact, look to others’ interests and not their own. “The
proof of the pudding is in the eating.” A novel idea? I don’t think so. In Jesus’
story of the farmer and his sons, everyone knows the one who said he
wouldn’t work—but did—is way ahead of the one who said he would work,
but didn’t. “Talk is cheap.” Heard that before?
REPETICIÓN NECESARIA
Los maestros espirituales tienen la tendencia a repetir lo mismo, y de
repetir lo que otros maestros enseñan. Tal vez es porque no hay muchas
verdades diferentes. Sólo muchos seres humanos, medios dormidos y
perezosos – igual que nosotros– que necesitan escuchar las verdades
básicas una y otra vez. Considera las lecturas de hoy. La gente se queja de
que Dios no es “justo”, y Ezequiel contesta que Dios es más que justo. La
gente escoge su destino y la gente puede cambiar. Hasta los malvados
pueden cambiar, hacer el bien y vivir para siempre. “Las acciones hablan
más claramente que las palabras”. ¿Una idea nueva? Seguro que no. Pablo
les dice a los filipenses que se sentiría muy complacido si los que se dicen
ser creyentes buscaran los intereses de los demás y no los propios. “La
prueba está en la realidad”. ¿Una idea nueva? No lo creo. En la historia que
Jesús cuenta sobre el viñador y sus hijos, todos sabemos que el que dijo
que no trabajaría – pero lo hizo– es más virtuoso que el que dijo que
trabajaría, pero no lo hizo. “Perro que ladra no muerde” ¿Has escuchado
eso antes?

A Word from Fr. Ray
Una Palabra de P. Ray
There is much to be grateful for as we come to the
end of September. How fitting it is that the feast of
San Lorenzo Ruiz arrives on the last Sunday of
September. I am so thankful to the Filipino
Community for the endless task of fundraising and
solicitations for this unique celebration and the
blessing of the new tapestry with the image of San
Lorenzo Ruiz. I’d like to also acknowledge and thank
so many of our parishioners that also contributed to
the celebration and those that purchased souvenir
booklets.
Many thanks go out to all of you that prayed for the
closure of escrow for my new home. It took an
amazing seven weeks. My life has been a cliffhanger not knowing that the financing would happen.
Nonetheless, the VA underwriters finally came
through and I’m now ready to move things out of
storage and settle in. Praise God!!!!!
The Gift shop is need of volunteers to keep the
doors open. We are having major difficulties in
getting committed volunteers to help after the
Masses, especially the Sunday Masses. We are
going to try to make a campaign for volunteers until
the 15th of October. If we do not have a sufficient
amount of volunteers by the above date, then we will
be forced to close the gift shop and liquidate the
inventory. CTK sponsors the gift shop for your
convenience, so please help us out if you would to
keep the gift shop open in the future. Please contact
Beth Thompson in the Religious Ed Office at (702)
871-1904 if you would like to volunteer.
Preguntas para el domingo 05 de octubre 2014
¿Cuál es la conexión entre los viñedos en la primera
lectura de Is 5, 1-7
y MT 21: 33-43?
Questions for Sunday October 5th 2014
What is the connection between the vineyards in the first
reading from Is 5:1-7 and MT 21:33-43?
¿Qué grupo de personas se les dará la viña a en
retrospectiva de la dirección de Jesús a los sumos
sacerdotes y los ancianos del pueblo?
What group of people will the vineyard be given to in
retrospect of Jesus’s address to the chief priests and
elders of the people?
With much love and gratitude, Fr.
Hay mucho que agradecer que hemos llegado al final
de septiembre. Qué apropiado es que la fiesta de San
Lorenzo Ruiz llega el último domingo de septiembre.
Estoy muy agradecido a la Comunidad Filipino para la
interminable tarea de recaudación de fondos y
solicitudes para esta celebración única y la bendición del
nuevo tapiz con la imagen de San Lorenzo Ruiz. Me
gustaría también reconocer y agradecer a muchos de
nuestros feligreses que también contribuyeron a la
celebración y aquellos que compraron folletos de
recuerdos.
Muchas gracias a todos los que oraron por el cierre de
la plica para mi nuevo hogar. Le tomó un sorprendente
siete semanas. Mi vida ha sido un cliffhanger sin saber
que la financiación iba a suceder. Sin embargo, los
aseguradores VA finalmente vinieron por medio y estoy
listo para mover las cosas de almacenamiento y
adaptarse. Alabado sea Dios !!!!!
La tienda de regalos es la necesidad de voluntarios
para mantener las puertas abiertas. Estamos teniendo
grandes dificultades para conseguir voluntarios
comprometidos con ayudar a después de las misas,
especialmente las misas dominicales. Vamos a tratar de
hacer una campaña a favor de los voluntarios hasta el
15 de octubre. Si no tenemos una cantidad suficiente de
voluntarios en la fecha anterior, entonces nos veremos
obligados a cerrar la tienda de regalos y liquidar el
inventario. CTK patrocina la tienda de regalos para su
comodidad, así que por favor nos ayude si lo haría para
mantener la tienda de regalos abierta en el futuro. Por
favor, póngase en contacto con a Beth Thompson en el
Ed Oficina Religiosa en (702) 871-1904 si usted desea
ser voluntario.

40 DAYS FOR LIFE
September 24th – November 2nd
40 Days For Life is an International Prayer
Ministry that began in 2007 in College Station,
Texas dedicated to eradicating, through prayer
and fasting, centers of abortion in our
communities. Since 2007, 539 cities across the
United States and Canada as well as 24 countries
have participated in a 40 Days Campaign praying
at centers of abortion in their respective cities.
Since 2007, nearly 2000 campaigns have been
conducted, with over half a million participants
resulting in the permanent closure of 55 centers
for abortion (one here in Las Vegas). Nearly
9000 children have been saved, many of those
here in Las Vegas.
During 40 Days for Life, the community is asked
to pray and advocate for the unborn in these three
specific ways:
1. Prayer and Fasting
2. Vigil: Parishioners are asked to join
together to vigil at the site of the abortion clinic.
We will be outside after Mass today to collect
names of those individuals wanting to
participate at the clinic on Saturday, October.
4th, from 7:00 am until 7:00 pm. The clinic,
The Birth Control Center, is located at 872
East Sahara Avenue (behind Tower of Jewels)
in Las Vegas. Join Us!
3. Community Outreach: Perhaps you know
an unwed mother whom you can journey
beside, or you can contact Living Grace
Homes, an organization that offers a beautiful
residential facility in Las Vegas for soon-to-be
mothers between the ages of 14-22. They
provide safe haven to those who are pregnant
and unwed and without support. Send
donations to: Living Grace Homes, P. O. Box
60416, LV, NV 89160 or call: (702) 212-6472.

Small Church
Communities;
a way of being
church
Small Church
Communities are groups of 6 to 8 people who
gather in homes to reflect on the scriptures of
the upcoming Sunday and their significance in
their lives. All ministries and organizations
connected to Christ the King are asked to use a
simple formula for prayer as they gather: Read
one of the scriptures for the upcoming Sunday.
Take a few moments to reflect on one of the
questions related to the scripture (in Fr. Ray’s
column). Invite individuals to share their
response with the person next to them;
encourage people to share with someone they
do not know well. Before we know it we have
grown closer as a community!
Please call Chris at (702) 378-5622

Pequeñas comunidades
eclesiales son grupos de 6 a
8 personas que se reúnen en casas para
reflexionar sobre las escrituras del domingo
siguiente y su significado en nuestras vidas. Se
pide a todos los ministerios y organizaciones
vinculadas a Cristo Rey que usen una fórmula
sencilla para la oración que se reúnen: Leer una de
las escrituras para el próximo domingo. Tómese
unos minutos para reflexionar sobre una de las
cuestiones relacionadas con la escritura (en la
columna del P. Ray). Invite a las personas a
compartir sus respuestas con la persona al lado de
ellos; animar a la gente a compartir con alguien que
no conocen bien. Antes de darnos cuenta que
hemos crecido más unidos como comunidad!

PRAYER SHAWL MINISTRY . . . YARN NEEDED
We have a new ministry of caring for those in need of comfort, peace and spiritual solace
especially in times of illness and death through the creation and presentation of the PRAYER
SHAWL.
What is needed is time and a willingness to create these beautiful shawls through the art of
crocheting and/or knitting. We could also use your leftover yarn. Do you have scraps or skeins of
yarn that you no longer need? Maybe you know someone that no longer knits or crochets. We
could really use that yarn for our Prayer Shawl Ministry. For anyone who might be interested in
participating in this wonderful act of love, or if you have any yarn you wish to donate, please call
Maureen Morley at (702) 364-8411 for further information.
Come and join this most important corporal and spiritual work!
LITURGY NEWS
News Update: Daily Chapel & Ministry Volunteers Needed
Daily Chapel: Our plans for the transformation of the Daily Chapel are still in the works but
have been delayed until December. Both tapestries of San Lorenzo Ruiz and The Divine
Mercy are in the final stages of being designed and produced by the artist. In the
meantime there is a tapestry of San Lorenzo Ruiz hanging in the chapel. This tapestry,
courtesy of the artist, John Nava, is a representation of how the final art work will look. It is
a beautiful depiction of San Lorenzo Ruiz. We invite everyone to stop into the chapel to
view it and offer a prayer. We look forward to the arrival of the tapestries to complete the
chapel space in December and will keep everyone informed of the dedication to take place
at that time.
Ministry Volunteers GREATLY Needed: We are in GREAT need of volunteers to help in
EVERY ministry at mass. After our talk the weekend of September 13-14th, there were a
few people who came forward to volunteer in a few ministry areas but not nearly enough to
keep us functioning as we should. PLEASE consider coming forward and giving of yourself
through your time and talent. Experience is not necessarily needed and TRAINING will be
provided.
We have a particular need for the following:
♦ Hospitality Ministers – Especially at the 4 pm Saturday; 11:30 am Sunday; 1:30 pm
Sunday Spanish Mass; 4 pm Sunday
Duties - greet people at the door, pass out books, help with the collection, direct
communion procession, hand out bulletins, offer any help to those in need during the
mass, etc.
♦ Eucharistic Ministers – Especially at the 4 pm Saturday; 7:30 am Sunday; 1:30 pm
Sunday Spanish Mass; 4 pm Sunday
Duties – distribute the Body and Blood of Christ to the community during the
Communion time
♦ Mass Coordinators – Especially at the 4 pm Sunday
Duties – make sure the various ministry volunteers are there to fulfill their
responsibilities at mass; fill in/recruit people to help out if needed
♦ Lighting/Sound – All masses, especially the 4 pm Sunday
Duties – coordinate the lighting/sound during the liturgy; work with the music groups
according to their needs
