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. As the end of the liturgical year draws near,
the message of God’s Word urges us to be ready for the events which will
happen. Christians confident in the
Lord’s teaching have no reason to be worried about—much less afraid of—difficulties,
suffering, persecution, and bloody conflict, even death, but they should instead
stand erect and raise their heads for those happenings are signs of the coming
of their salvation.
Please
all stand for the entrance hymn.
