Christ the King Novena Prayer (to be said for 9 days): In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. Christ, our Saviour and our King, renew in me allegiance to Your Kingship. I pray for the grace to place You above the powers of this world in all things. O Prince of Peace, may Your reign be complete in my life and in the life of the world. Christ, my King, please answer these petitions if they be in accordance with Your Holy Will… [Mention your intentions here] As I reflect on Your second, glorious coming and the judgement of all mankind, I beg You to show me mercy and give me the grace to become a great saint. I pray that not only will I spend eternity with You but that You may use me – a sinner – to bring others into Your Kingdom for Your glory. Christ the King, Your Kingdom come! Amen. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

RED WEDNESDAY is an international remembrance of persecuted and martyred Christians and is being held this Wed 28th. Knock Basilica and other cathedrals will be lit up in red in memory of the estimated one million Christians martyred since the year 2000. Up to 200 million Christians live under some type of persecution where to bless oneself in public could be a death sentence. We can participate by offering prayers and perhaps wearing an article of red clothing on this day. Bishop Doran said: "Just as Jesus suffered for his fidelity to his mission... so in every generation, Christians somewhere suffer for their fidelity to Jesus." Thus Red Wednesday is "our way of gathering at the foot of the Cross."
