This Sunday, the Solemnity of Jesus Christ, King of the Universe, marks the end of the Liturgical Year for the Church.

Election Results
It will be nice this weekend to enjoy watching football without political ads! The election was declared on Election Day (well the wee hours of the morning of the next day…) and we can all take a deep breath as the dust settles.
