Twenty-First Sunday after Pentecost
Feast of Christ the King
The Blessing of Christ by Fernando Gallego, 1492
Missa Dignus est Agnus qui occísus est, accípere virtútem, et divinitátem et sapiéntiam, et fortitúdinen, et honórem
( "The Lamb that was slain is worthy to receive the power and divinity and wisdom and strength and honor" )

"....our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against principalities and powers, against the rulers of the world of this darkness, against the spirits of wickedness in the high places...."
"Nothing is so consoling, so piercing, so thrilling, so overcoming, as the Mass, said as it is among us. I could attend Mass forever, and not be tired. It is not a mere form of words; it is a great action. The greatest action that can be on earth. It is. . .the vocation of the Eternal."
-- John Henry Cardinal Newman
