Stewardship at Christ the King

Stewardship is the selfless act of taking the time, talent, and treasure that we have and using for them the good of the Church and the community. Christ the King is dedicated to being an active stewardship parish, giving back the gifts God has blessed us with. It is our role as a missionary Church to not only preach the Gospel to all people, but to participate in the corporal works of mercy. Some of the ways Christ the King is commtted to ongoing stewardship are:

• Monthly feedings of the homeless in Denver.
• Continued financial support of St. Denis school in Uganda.
• We are the largest donor to Evergreen Christian Outreach, the Mountain Area center for outreach assistance.
• 10% of our operating budget goes straight to charities.
• Clothing Drives for the less fortunate.
• An extensive Christmas outreach to our sister parish, St. Antony of Padua, which provides presents for over 1,000 people who wouldn't receive them otherwise.
• Support of our religious education program which teaches more than 500 children yearly about Christ.
• Support for a dozen "second collection" efforts which benefit charities worlwide, all without putting a single collection basket in the pews.

In addition to our many charitable efforts, we activly seek caring people to participate in the ongoing outreach and evangelization ministry of the Church. Every Fall we hold our "PICKS (Parishioners In Christ the King's Service) Fair" which gives every parishioner a chance to offer their time and talent for the good of the community. With over twenty groups and organizations within the parish, there is something for everyone.
