Spiritual Development is a Priority at CKRS
 
The St Katherine Drexel Shrine
Spirituality

 

 

In addition to Christ the King Regional School’s (CKRS) superior academic standards, our school strives to develop our students’ spiritual well being.

 

Specific examples of our students’ religious development are as follows:

  • Religion Class is taught daily, to all grades;
  • All students attend mass, as a school, at Christ the King Church on the First Friday of each month and on Holy Days of Obligation;
  • Class prayers are recited, along with the pledge to the flag, in the morning; prayers are also recited before and after lunch and before dismissal;
  • Prayer services are held during certain Saint’s Feast Days (e.g., St Francis of Assisi, St Nicholas, etc);
  • Students attend Stations of the Cross during Lent, which culminates with the Living Stations presented the Wednesday before Easter;-
  •  Students participate in community service projects (e.g., our Catholic Schools Week project supporting St Francis Inn);
  • Some grades take field trips to local religious shrines:
    • St. Katherine Drexel Shrine in Bensalem;
    • National Shrine St. Rita Of Cascia on Broad St in Philadelphia;
    • The National Shrine of St. John Neumann on N 5th St in Philadelphia;
    • The Basilica of St. Peter & St. Paul in Philadelphia.
