Welcome to Christ The King Catholic Church, located near historic downtown High Point, NC. We are a growing and active Catholic community with a long and culturally diverse history. From our humble beginnings as a mission church to serve the African-American Catholics in 1940, our parish has grown to be a vibrant witness to the Gospel of Life.
Sunday Eucharist is the heart of our parish community as it gives us life, strengthens us and calls us to holiness. We are committed to Catholic education and teaching of our faith through our Youth ministry and in our lifelong Faith Formation Program.
Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
St. Paul says in the second reading of this Sunday that we groan within ourselves with the desire to give birth to the Kingdom. Paul uses the image of labor pains. A woman in labor experiences her whole being concentrated on giving birth. In the same way, to give birth to the Kingdom, we focus and groan from our inner depths. We want to make God’s Kingdom a reality in the world.
God gives us all that we need, the Word. The Word of God has the power to transform our lives and the world into the Heavenly Kingdom. It is not enough to say “I want to be part of the Kingdom.” It is not enough to say “I want to be united with Christ.” We have to use the powerful gift of the Word. Therefore, we need to be good soil in which the Word can grow and bear fruit. If we open our hearts to the Spirit, we can become good soil that returns to the Lord more fruit than we could ever imagine.
May God bless us all!
Fr. Joe
Monday-Friday: 9:00 AM – 3:00 PM
