A. Introduction
a) To the Holy Mass
Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ,
Good morning!
Welcome to Saint Dominic’s Parish Church for
our Sunday Holy Mass celebration. Today we celebrate the
solemnity of the Most Blessed Sacrament of the Body and Blood of Our Lord Jesus
Christ to profess our faith in the real presence of the Lord in the figures of
bread and wine, firmly believing what He taught and promised to those receiving
and consuming His flesh and blood. He said, “Whoever eats my flesh and
drinks my blood has eternal life.”
We offer in this Holy Mass our deep thanksgiving and praise for
Christ’s great love for us and our sincere commitment to living up to His
Commandment of love.
As we also celebrate Father’s Day today, we pray to God the
Heavenly Father of all to bless our fathers on earth. May God grant them good health, joy, success
in life, and strong faith in Jesus in order for them to fulfill their mission
as the heads of the family.
Please all stand for the entrance hymn.
b) To the Readings
- First
Reading Dt 8:2-3.14b-16a
The Great Prophet Moses in the Book of Deuteronomy reminds the
People of Israel of the reality that material things cannot satisfy man’s needs
simply because he was made of flesh and spirit. The Word of the Living
God is capable of bringing the fullness of life to those believing in Christ
Who Himself is the Divine Word made flesh.
- Second
Reading 1 Cor 10:16-17
Saint Paul strongly teaches Christians that the bread and wine
which they share in the Holy Mass are truly the Body and Blood of the Lord
sacrificed for the forgiveness of our sins and for our life in communion with
Christ.
