For years, Christ the King has been a faithful supporter of this critical venture which provides much needed food and supplies to people in need in 15 small villages in a remote part of Mexico. This ministry was founded by parishioner Jose Olguin, and his family travels to Mexico each year and personally organizes and leads the distribution of the supplies to families in need. Jose's Village is one of the many ministries overseen by our Outreach Committee. Details of the current situation are forthcoming. The designated day for this collection is Oct. 2nd, but you may give from now until Oct. 21st at this link, or by making a check payable to CTK with Jose's Village on the memo line and mail or bring to the office or drop in the collection basket any Sunday.
