Unang Araw ng Triduum para sa Kapistahan ng Pagtatampok sa Banal na Krus | September 11, 2023

✝️MABUTING BALITA✝️
📖Lucas 6:6–11📖

Isang Araw ng Pamamahinga, muling pumasok si Hesus sa sinagoga at nagturo. May isang lakaki roong tuyot ang kanang kamay. Sa hangad ng mga eskriba at mga Pariseo na maparatangan si Hesus, nagbantay sila upang tingnan kung siya’y magpapagaling sa Araw ng Pamamahinga. Subalit batid ni Hesus ang kanilang mga iniisip, kaya’t sinabi niya sa lalaking tuyot ang kamay, “Halika rito sa unahan.” Lumapit naman ang lalaki at tumayo roon. Sinabi ni Hesus sa kanila, “Tatanungin ko kayo. Alin ba ang ayon sa Kautusan: ang gumawa ng mabuti o ang gumawa ng masama sa Araw ng Pamamahinga? Magligtas ng buhay o pumatay?” Tiningnan ni Hesus ang nasa palibot niya at sinabi sa lalaki, “Iunat mo ang iyong kamay!” Iniunat nga niya ang kanyang kamay at ito’y gumaling. Nagngingitngit sa galit ang mga eskriba at ang mga Pariseo, at pinag-usapan nila kung ano ang dapat gawin kay Hesus.

As we progress through the spiritual journey of Advent, the second Sunday traditionally symbolizes the virtue of Peace. The second purple candle that is lit on this day is known as the "Bethlehem Candle." Reflecting on the journey of Mary and St. Joseph to Bethlehem during the weeks leading up to the first Christmas is a good way to remain in a spirit of humble reflection and penance.

PENTECOST SUNDAY | JUNE 05
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ONE, HOLY, CATHOLIC, AND APOSTOLIC CHURCH

We're all familiar with our own birthdays, and we celebrate them because they mark the day of the year in which we entered into this life. But did you know you have a second birthday?

Because you are part of the body of the Church, Pentecost is the Church's birthday, and yours as well. And like any birthday, it's a cause for celebration.

The word Pentecost is Greek and it means "50th day." Fifty days after Easter Sunday, we celebrate the coming of the Holy Spirit upon the Apostles and their followers, and the beginning of their Earthly ministry to make disciples of all nations.

Pentecost is also a Jewish holiday, which the Jews use to celebrate the end of Passover. Jews celebrate the gift of the law to Moses at Mt. Sinai on this day. But we, as Catholics celebrate the birth of our Church.

At Pentecost, the Apostles and their followers were gathered in a room. Jews from all over the world were gathered with Peter, the leader of the Apostles and the Eleven. At this time, a great wind blew and a flame appeared as a tongue of fire, which split itself into many individual flames above the heads of all those present. The Holy Spirit came upon these people and each began to speak in tongues. Despite the fact many had no common language, they were perfectly able to understand one another.

Others who were no so blessed, accused those speaking in tongues of being drunk, but Peter arose and addressed the crowd, explaining that it was only 9 o'clock, and that this phenomenon was not intoxication, but rather this was the work of the Holy Spirit, prophesied in the scripture.

Peter then called all those present to be baptized and about three thousand people were baptized that day.

These people were among the first Catholics, and Peter is the first pope of the Catholic Church.

The symbols of Pentecost are the flame, wind, and the dove, which represents the Holy Spirit. The color of Pentecost is red and the priest wears red vestments on this day. Parishioners are also invited to wear red on this day. Red decorations as well as celebrations are appropriate, similar to any other birthday. Special prayers are often said just for Pentecost.

THE FEAST OF THE VISITATION OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY

In Christianity, the Visitation is the visit of Mary, who was pregnant with Jesus, to Elizabeth, who was pregnant with John the Baptist, in the Gospel of Luke, Luke 1:39–56.
It is also the name of a Christian feast day commemorating this visit, celebrated on 31 May in the feast-celebrating branches of Western Christianity (most and mainstream calendars of Catholics and High Church Anglicans (or as 2 July in calendars of 1263–1969, retained in the modern calendar of some countries whose bishops' conferences wanted to retain this, notably Germany and Slovakia) and 30 March in Eastern Christianity.
The episode is one of the standard scenes shown in cycles of the Life of the Virgin in art, and sometimes in larger cycles of the Life of Christ in art.

WHY PRAY THE DIVINE MERCY CHAPLET AT 3:00 PM?

The hour of the Lord Jesus’ death, 3pm, is a privileged time as regards the devotion to the Divine Mercy. At that hour, in spirit we stand beneath Christ’s cross in order to entreat for mercy for us and the whole world for the sake of the merits of His passion.

The Lord Jesus said to Sister Faustina: “At three o’clock implore My mercy, especially for sinners; and, if only for a brief moment, immerse yourself in My Passion, particularly in My abandonment at the moment of agony. This is the hour of great mercy for the whole world” (Diary of St. Faustina 1320).
I remind you, My daughter, that as often as you hear the clock strike the third hour, immerse yourself completely in My mercy, adoring and glorifying it; invoke its omnipotence for the whole world, and particularly for poor sinners; for at that moment mercy was opened wide for every soul. In this hour you can obtain everything for yourself and for others for the asking; it was the hour of grace for the whole world-mercy triumphed over justice. (Diary of St. Faustina1572)

Immediately, it needs to be explained that what is meant here is not sixty minutes but the moment of Jesus’ agony on the cross, therefore – the 3 o clock prayer.

It is frequently written and said that the Chaplet to the Divine Mercy must be said at 3 pm and that the Chaplet said at that time has a special power. It is thought so due to lack of knowledge of the devotion to the Divine Mercy in the forms conveyed by Sister Faustina and maybe due to the need for a ready-made wording of the prayer.

Ang Linggo ng Muling Pagkabuhay ang pinaka importanteng ginaganap ng mga Katoliko sa buong taon ng Liturhiya

Sa pagkabuhay ni Hesus, pinapaalalahanan tayo na si Hesus nga ang Tunay na Tagapagligtas na ating ilaw.

Mahalaga sa ating mga Kristyano ang makita ang significance ng Muling Pagkabuhay bilang assurance na ang Diyos ay namatay para sa ating mga kasalanan at Muling Nabuhay upang tupdin ang kasulatan.

Maligayang Linggo ng Pagkabuhay sa inyong lahat!
