The Diocese of Pittsburgh announced on April 28, 2018, that His Excellency, the Most Reverend David A. Zubik, Bishop of Pittsburgh, is inviting the Institute of Christ the King Sovereign Priest to serve in southwestern Pennsylvania.
On Saturday, April 28th, 2018, at 1 pm EST, His Excellency, the Most Reverend Alexander K. Sample, Archbishop of Portland, Oregon, will celebrate a Solemn Pontifical Mass at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in Washington, D.C.
On Saturday, June 23, everyone is welcome for a pilgrimage organized by the Institute to the National Shrine of Our Lady Help of Christians at the Basilica of Holy Hill in Hubertus, Wisconsin (near Milwaukee).
“The prayer of the Church is the most pleasing to the ear and heart of God, and therefore the most efficacious of all prayers.”
Ite ad Joseph! At St. Joseph Oratory in Detroit, the annual St. Joseph Day of Prayer began at 7:00 a.m. as faithful gathered in the church for Lauds. The parish, which sees many visitors on a daily basis, became a special place of pilgrimage for over 1,000 souls (on a Monday!) throughout the day in celebration of the feast of St. Joseph, Spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
Faithful of the Oratory of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, located in Silicon Valley, San Jose, California, have made this video to highlight the traditional Latin Liturgy in this Bay Area apostolate of the Institute. "The Institute of Christ the King brings the Latin Mass to fourteen different dioceses in the U.S."
The water supply to the convent is currently provided by an old system of water catchment in the stream below the House of the Royal Heart. This is the novitiate formation house of the Sisters located just a couple of miles from the Institute’s Motherhouse and St. Philip Neri Seminary in Gricigliano, Italy.
"O Lord, send us many holy priests!" It is the custom in the worldwide apostolates of the Institute of Christ the King Sovereign Priest to add this invocation to the Divine Praises which are recited at each Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament.
On the evening of December 8, Feast of the Immaculate Conception, the Institute continued the annual tradition of a candlelight procession through the streets of Rome in honor of Mary Immaculate. This year the procession was presided by His Eminence, Gerhard Ludwig Cardinal Müller.
For the 5th year in a row, Sursum Corda will be leading a brigade to the March for Life in Washington D.C.!
The Institute’s titular feast of Christ the King is always a cause for special rejoicing in all our apostolates.
