“The rulers sneered at Jesus and said, “He saved others, let him save himself if he is the chosen one, the Christ of God.”

Even the soldiers jeered at him. “If you are King of the Jews, save yourself.”

Now one of the criminals hanging there reviled Jesus, saying, “Are you not the Christ? Save yourself and us.”

The other, however, rebuking him, said in reply, “Have you no fear of God, we have been condemned justly,

but this man has done nothing criminal.” Then he said, “Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.”

He replied to him,“Amen, I say to you, today you will be with me in Paradise.”

Luke / Lucas 23:25-43

Reflection

This week we celebrate Christ the King. In the best sense of the word, a King is some one who cares for the people under his care, and also has authority over them. When have you felt Jesus’ care for you? How

do you allow Jesus to have authority over you?

As you think about Jesus on the cross, having compassion on the “good thief,” what lesson do you draw from it for your own life?

The American Cancer Society offers many free services to help people with cancer and their families overcome obsta-cles in their personal cancer fight so they can focus on getting well. Services in-clude Road to Recovery, wigs for women, Look Good Feel Better - for women - and lodging. One challenge involves transpor-

tation to and from much-needed cancer treatments. Patients may be to ill to drive themselves, may not have a car or some-one to drive or may not be able to afford gas or other transpor-tation. American Cancer Society seeks volunteer drivers who are willing to use their own vehicles to drive patients undergo-ing cancer treatment as well as other appointments. Interested volunteers can call (800) 227-2345 to find out more about this vital program and how to become involved.

Support Group for Families of Incarcerated Persons The Diocese of San Jose, through the Office of Restorative Justice, has formed a support group for family members of incarcerated persons. This group meets at 7:00pm on the third Tuesday of each month at the Wom-en’s Gathering Place (First Presbyterian Church) 49 North 4th Street, San Jose 95112.

The purpose of this group is to provide support, encour-agement, and prayer during this difficult time. For further information, please contact Merylee Shelton at Merylee@sbcglobal.net or at (408) 218-1928 (call or text).
