We celebrated a Mass which centered on St. Phoebe\u2019s witness and involved women from the parish. <strong>We, the women of Christ the King, were an<\/strong><\/span><strong> integral part of the Mass and, in doing so, we were actively living out our baptismal promises<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>.<\/strong> St. Phoebe holy cards were distributed before Mass, and an image of her was displayed in the sanctuary. We shared special Prayers of the Faithful including praying for a calendar feast date for St. Phoebe on the liturgical calendar. A young woman from our group broke open the Scriptures for us during the liturgy, and a teen from the parish (named Phoebe!) read the prayer of St. Phoebe for the parish for the prayer after communion. We gave out Discerning Deacons \u201cswag\u201d during the coffee hour after Mass, and stickers for Discerning Deacons were on all of the coffee cups.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>It was powerful and inspiring to see women involved in the Mass in such an active way.
