Christ The King

The old farmer from the countryside who was visiting a huge city for the 1st time with his son, stood speechless before the elevator of a huge hotel, watching in wonder, as an old woman got into the elevator and, within minutes, a pretty young woman came out. He called out to his son who was registering at the reception, Son, put your mother into that miracle machine immediately. It will transform her into a pretty young lady. The common theme of today's readings is the metamorphosis or transformation expected of us during Lent.
