LAFLIN — The Diocesan Enthronement Guild of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary will host a special Mass of Enthronement to celebrate the Solemnity of Christ the King on Sunday, Nov. 24.
The Mass commemorating the annual feast day that marks the end of the church’s liturgical year will be celebrated at 3 p.m. in the chapel of the Oblates of Saint Joseph Seminary, Route 315.
Father Dan Toomey, spiritual moderator of the Enthronement Guild, will serve as principal celebrant for the liturgy. Saint Joseph Oblate Father Joseph Sibilano, seminary director, will concelebrate.
The Sacred Heart Singers, directed by Ernie Pappa, will provide the music ministry for the liturgical celebration, beginning with a prelude of contemporary Christian music at 2:30 p.m. Refreshments and fellowship will follow the Mass.
All faithful are welcome to attend the Christ the King celebration, which will also feature a religious articles display. Donations will be accepted in support of the Enthronement Guild.
The Enthronement of the Sacred Heart Apostolate enables families and individuals to consecrate their homes to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Homes that have been enthroned become an extension of the liturgy, whereby faithful can follow up their Eucharistic devotion in church with prayerful devotion in their own private settings.
Anyone interested in enthroning their home to the Sacred Hearts may register to receive an Ethronement packet by contacting Maria Pappa, coordinator of the Enthronement Guild, at 570-587- 0805
