A. 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 celebration. The Gospel message of God’s Word encourages
us to pray with confidence that God our Father in heaven always listens to us,
and to pray without ceasing because we are not the Master but only
servants. Being dependent on God’s love
and mercy, we, in some urgent situation though, have to wait for the due time
of God.
Kindly
all stand for the entrance hymn.
b)
To the Readings:
-
First Reading: Ex 17:8-13
The people
of Israel won the battle against a bigger and stronger army not by their own
forces but thanks to God’s support through the prayer of the great Prophet
Moses.
-
Second Reading: 2 Tim 3:14-4:2
Saint Paul
told Bishop Timothy his disciple to keep his faithfulness to Christ until the
last day of his life so as to deserve a share in God’s Kingdom.
