“His power is love, his throne the Cross, and through the Cross his Kingdom shines forth upon the world.”
– Pope Leo XIV, Solemnity of Christ the King, 2025
WALK WITH CHRIST 2026
On this Solemnity, we invite all Catholics to unite and honour the Real Presence of Christ our King by participating in the Walk with Christ Eucharistic Procession through the street of Sydney CBD.
In 1925, Pope Pius XI instituted the Feast of Christ the King in his encyclical Quas Primas, to response to a world increasingly turning away from Christ and marked by the rise of secularism. He hoped that the celebration of this feast would strengthen the faithful in their fidelity to Christ, their true King, and affirm His sovereign authority over all humanity and creation.
Prayer:
Christ Jesus, I acknowledge You to be King of the universe; all that has been made has been created for You. Exercise over me all Your sovereign rights. I hereby renew the promises of my Baptism, renouncing Satan and all his glamour and works, and I promise from this moment to lead a truly Christian life. In particular, I commit to bringing about the triumph of the rights of God and Your Church. Divine Heart of Jesus, I offer You my poor actions so that every heart may acknowledge Your Sacred Kingly Power. May the Kingdom of Your peace be firmly established throughout all the earth. Amen.
