Introduction
a)
To the Holy Mass
Dear
Sisters and Brothers in Christ,
Good
morning!
Welcome
to Saint Dominic’s Parish Church for the Sunday Holy Mass service. As we celebrate the Fourth Sunday in the
Ordinary Time today, the Word of God urges us to see things and people in the
light of our faith in order that we are not blinded by discrimination and
prejudice.
We
pray hard in this Holy Mass for God’s gift of peace and justice, love and
compassion in the relationship between individuals, families, and communities.
Kindly
all stand for the entrance hymn.
b)
To the Readings
-
First Reading: Jer 1:4-5.17-19
The Prophet
Jeremiah was called by the Lord God to speak out the saving truth to sinful
people including those in top power in both the royal palace and the holy
temple. To the frightened messenger
facing a hostile audience’s reactions, the Lord God promised His mighty
support.
-
Second Reading: 1 Cor 12:31-13:13
For Saint
Paul, charity or Christian love means everything in whatever we do. Without love the Christian community would be
reduced to lifeless body.
