Introduction
a)
To
the Holy Mass
Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ,
Good morning!
Welcome to Saint Dominic’s Parish Church for
the celebration of Sunday Holy Mass. As
we celebrate the Thirteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time, Year A today, the message
of the Word of God tells us to faithfully and wholeheartedly serve the Lord
God, being sure that the reward for such dedication will be great in heaven.
We pray in this Holy Mass for our commitment
to loving and serving God without reserve both now here on earth and later in
His Kingdom.
Kindly all stand and join in the entrance
hymn.

Saint Paul reminds Christians of their
dignity of those in the Sacrament of Baptism having died to their past sinful
