In light of the 20 Extraordinary Synod on the Family, the CTK Family Symposium, the World Meeting on the Family in Philadelphia and the 2015 Ordinary Synod, Christ the King hopes to foster deeper discussion on the opportunities and problems facing our families in modern times, and to promote a culture based on the foundational charity found in the family unit.  We have prepared a number of resources for further reading for those who are so inclined.  They are listed below.  Check back for more updates as the discussion unfolds!
