Sunday Mass Presider: Rev. Fr. Kevin B. Roldan, PH.L, MA
Mass Schedule: Sunday @ 8:00 AM

OPEN YOUR BIBLE AND READ the Gospel reading according to Matthew 21:28–32

28 “What is your opinion? A man had two sons. He came to the first and said, ‘Son, go out and work in the vineyard today.’
29 He said in reply, ‘I will not,’ but afterwards changed his mind and went.
30 The man came to the other son and gave the same order. He said in reply, ‘Yes, sir,’ but did not go.
31 Which of the two did his father’s will?” They answered, “The first.” Jesus said to them, “Amen, I say to you, tax collectors and prostitutes are entering the kingdom of God before you.
32 When John came to you in the way of righteousness, you did not believe him; but tax collectors and prostitutes did. Yet even when you saw that, you did not later change your minds and believe him.”

REFLECTION:
In today's Gospel, Jesus shares the parable of the two sons, teaching us that true faith is measured by our actions rather than just our words. The second son said all the right things but failed to follow through, while the first son initially resisted but ultimately chose to obey his father’s will.

Like the sons in the parable, we are constantly invited to work in God's vineyard. Sometimes we qu**ky say "yes" to God in our prayers, yet our daily actions, choices, and treatment of others don't reflect that commitment. Other times, we might stumble, turn away, or hesitate out of selfishness or pride.

Yet God's boundless mercy is always open to us. He gives us the grace to reconsider our direction, change our hearts, and choose a path of genuine conversion. The Gospel reminds us that it is never too late to repent and align our lives with His will; what matters most is our ongoing willingness to change and faithfully serve Him.

In this Gospel reading, remember the word OBEY.
O – Offer your genuine actions, not just empty words.
B – Bow your heart in humility to accept God's correction.
E – Examine your daily choices to see if they honor the Father.
Y – Yield your own stubbornness to follow His righteous path.

PRAYER:
Lord, You are the loving Father who calls me to labor fruitfully in Your vineyard. Help me to trust in Your mercy whenever I fall short or hesitate to follow Your commands. Teach me to serve You with an obedient and sincere heart rather than relying on outward appearances.

Remove the weeds of hypocrisy, pride, and complacency from my life, and nourish the seeds of true repentance, humility, and love within me. May my actions always match my words, and may I remain steadfast in doing Your holy will each day. In Jesus' name, Amen.

Thank you for connecting through the Gospel today! May God's mercy, wisdom, and grace guide you throughout the week. Continue to live out your faith and bear fruits that bring glory to Him. Have a blessed Sunday everyone! 💛

SEPTEMBER 20, 2026 | TWENTY-FIFTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
MASS PRESIDER: REV. FR. JOSE R. RELENTE
MASS SCHEDULE: 8:00AM

GOSPEL READING ACCORDING TO MATTHEW 20:1-16a;

1 For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire workers for his vineyard.
2 He agreed to pay them a denarius for the day and sent them into his vineyard.
3 About nine in the morning he went out and saw others standing in the marketplace doing nothing.
4 He told them, ‘You also go and work in my vineyard, and I will pay you whatever is right.’
5 So they went. He went out again about noon and about three in the afternoon and did the same thing.
6 About five in the afternoon he went out and found still others standing around. He asked them, ‘Why have you been standing here all day long doing nothing?’
7 'Because no one has hired us,’ they answered. He said to them, ‘You also go and work in my vineyard.’
8 When evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his foreman, ‘Call the workers and pay them their wages, beginning with the last ones hired and going on to the first.’
9 The workers who were hired about five in the afternoon came and each received a denarius.
10 So when those came who were hired first, they expected to receive more. But each one of them also received a denarius.
11 When they received it, they began to grumble against the landowner.
12 ‘These who were hired last worked only one hour,’ they said, ‘and you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden of the work and the heat of the day.’
13 But he answered one of them, ‘I am not being unfair to you, friend. Didn’t you agree to work for a denarius?
14 Take your pay and go. I want to give the one who was hired last the same as I gave you.
15 Don’t I have the right to do what I want with my own money? Or are you envious because I am generous?’
16 So the last will be first, and the first will be last.

REFLECTION:
This parable challenges our human ideas of fairness. We naturally think that those who work longer deserve more. However, God’s kingdom operates on radical grace, not human transactions.

The landowner does not cheat the first workers; he simply chooses to be overwhelmingly generous to the last. He looks past what the latecomers earned and provides what they actually need to survive. This gospel reminds us that God's love is a gift, not a wage.

Instead of comparing our blessings or measuring our worth against others, we are invited to rejoice in a God who is endlessly generous to everyone.

PRAYER:
Heavenly Father, thank You for Your boundary-breaking generosity. Forgive us when we grow envious of others or try to measure Your love by human standards. Keep our hearts free from spiritual pride, and help us to work in Your vineyard with joy and gratitude today. Amen.

MASS PRESIDER: REV. FR. KERVIN B. ROLDAN, PH.L., MA
MASS SCHEDULE: Sunday @ 8:45 AM

OPEN YOUR BIBLE AND READ the Gospel reading according to Matthew 18:15–20;

15 “If your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault, between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained your brother.
16 Jesus advises taking one or two witnesses if the person does not listen.
17 If they refuse them, tell the church, and treat unrepentant offenders as a Gentile and a tax collector.
18 Whatever is bound or loosed on earth holds spiritual authority in heaven.
19 Prayers agreed upon by two on earth will be granted by the Father in heaven.
20 Christ promises His presence wherever two or three gather in His name.

REFLECTION:
Today's gospel reading reminds us of the importance of honest communication, reconciliation, and community in following Jesus.

When someone wrongs us, the Lord calls us not to gossip or hold bitterness, but to approach them privately and lovingly to seek healing and restore the relationship.

Taking up this call means setting aside our pride and choosing peace over division.

When we gather in His name even in difficult conversations, Jesus promises to be in our midst, guiding our efforts to love and forgive one another.

PRAYER:
Dear Lord Jesus, Thank You for reminding me through Your Gospel of the sacredness of reconciliation and the power of communal prayer. Please give me the humility and courage to address conflicts with love, patience, and truth rather than anger or silence.

Teach me to be an instrument of Your peace within my family, community, and relationships. Help me to listen with an open heart and to extend the same mercy and forgiveness that You have so generously given to me.

Guide our gatherings so that Your presence may be truly felt among us. Help us to support one another in faith and to walk together on the path of holiness. Amen. 🙏

Thank you for joining us in celebrating the Holy Mass. May your faith, love, and soul grow stronger as you serve the Lord.

AUGUST 30,2026 | TWENTY-SECOND SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
Mass Presider: Rev. Fr. Jose R. Relente
Mass Schedule: Sunday @ 8:45 AM

OPEN YOUR BIBLE AND READ the Gospel reading according to Matthew 16:21–27;

21 Jesus began to show his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer greatly from the elders, the chief priests, and the scribes, and be killed and on the third day be raised.
22 Then Peter took Jesus aside and began to rebuke him, “God forbid, Lord! No such thing shall ever happen to you.”
23 He turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are an obstacle to me. You are thinking not as God does, but as human beings do.”
24 Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Whoever wishes to come after me must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me.
25 For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.
26 What profit would there be for one to gain the whole world and forfeit his life? Or what can one give in exchange for his life?
27 For the Son of Man will come with his angels in his Father’s glory, and then he will repay all according to his conduct.”

REFLECTION:
Today's gospel reading reminds us that following Jesus is not always easy. There will be times when we experience problems, sacrifices, disappointments, and struggles.

Like Peter, we may sometimes think that avoiding difficulties is the best choice, but Jesus reminds us that God’s plan is greater than what we can understand.

The Gospel also teaches us that material things and worldly success are not more important than our relationship with God. What truly matters is how we live, how we treat others, and whether our actions reflect our faith. We are reminded to choose God’s will, even when it is difficult.

PRAYER:
Dear Lord Jesus, thank You for reminding me through Your Gospel that following You requires faith, courage, and sacrifice. Please give me strength when I face difficulties and help me carry my crosses without losing hope. Teach me to trust Your plans. Help me choose what is right instead of what is easy, and remind me that worldly things cannot give me the peace and purpose that come from You. May I always have the courage to take up my cross and follow You each day. Amen.

Thank you for joining us in celebrating the Holy Mass. God bless, and see you again next Sunday!

AUGUST 23, 2026 | TWENTY-FIRST SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
SUNDAY MASS PRESIDER: REV. FR. GLENN C. MAGPUSAO
MASS SCHEDULE: SUNDAY @ 8:00 AM

OPEN YOUR BIBLE AND READ the Gospel reading according to Matthew 16:13-20;

13 When Jesus went into the region of Caesarea Philippi he asked his disciples, "Who do people say that the Son of Man is?"
14 They replied, "Some say John the Baptist, others Elijah, still others Jeremiah or one of the prophets."
15 He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?"
16 Simon Peter said in reply, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God."
17 Jesus said to him in reply, "Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah. For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my heavenly Father.
18 "And so I say to you, you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of the netherworld shall not prevail against it.
19 I will give you the keys to the kingdom of heaven. Whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven."
20 Then he strictly ordered his disciples to tell no one that he was the Christ."

REFLECTION:
At Caesarea Philippi, Jesus asks a deeply personal question: "Who do you say that I am?" Peter’s response—"You are the Christ, the Son of the living God"—comes from divine revelation, not human logic. In return, Jesus gives Simon a new identity, renaming him Peter (the Rock) and promising that the gates of the netherworld will never overcome His Church.

This reminds us that faith is more than inherited tradition; it requires a personal decision to center our lives on Christ. When we anchor our choices in Him, we receive the spiritual strength to withstand any storm.

PRAYER:
Lord Jesus, You ask us daily to declare who You are in our lives. Grant us the courage and clarity of Saint Peter to proclaim You as our Lord, Savior, and the Son of the Living God. When our world feels shaken, anchor our hearts to the rock of Your truth. Protect Your Church, guide our leaders, and help us live out our faith with bold conviction. Amen.

OPEN YOUR BIBLE AND READ the Gospel reading according to Matthew 15:21-28;

21 At that time, Jesus withdrew to the region of Tyre and Sidon.
22 And behold, a Canaanite woman of that district came and called out, "Have pity on me, Lord, Son of David! My daughter is tormented by a demon."
23 But he did not say a word in answer to her. His disciples came and asked him, "Send her away, for she keeps calling out after us."
24 He said in reply, "I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel."
25 But the woman came and did him homage, saying, "Lord, help me."
26 He said in reply, "It is not right to take the food of the children and throw it to the dogs."
27 She said, "Please, Lord, for even the dogs eat the scraps that fall from the table of their masters."
28 Then Jesus said to her in reply, "O woman, great is your faith! Let it be done for you as you wish." And her daughter was healed from that hour.

REFLECTION:
The passage shows one of the most moving of faith. The woman was not a Jew— she was an outsider, yet she refused to give up. Even when Jesus seemed to say no, she persisted with humility and trust, her faith broke every barrier. Jesus honors her faith and grants her request.

It teaches us to never stop praying, God hears and His mercy is for everyone.

PRAYER:
Lord, grant us the persistent and humble faith of the Canaanite woman to seek Your mercy with a steadfast heart and trust in Your abundant love today. In Jesus' name, Amen.

Sunday Mass Presider: Rev. Fr. Glenn C. Magpusao
Mass Schedule: Sunday @ 8:00 AM

OPEN YOUR BIBLE AND READ the Gospel reading according to Matthew 14:22-33;

22 After he had fed the people, Jesus made the disciples get into a boat and precede him to the other side, while he dismissed the crowds.
23 After doing so, he went up on the mountain by himself to pray. When it was evening he was there alone.
24 Meanwhile the boat, already a few miles offshore, was being tossed about by the waves, for the wind was against it.
25 During the fourth watch of the night, he came toward them walking on the sea.
26 When the disciples saw him walking on the sea they were terrified. “It is a ghost,” they said, and they cried out in fear.
27 At once Jesus spoke to them, “Take courage, it is I; do not be afraid.”
28 Peter said to him in reply, “Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the water.”
29 He said, “Come.” Peter got out of the boat and began to walk on the water toward Jesus.
30 But when he saw how strong the wind was he became frightened; and, beginning to sink, he cried out, “Lord, save me!”
31 Immediately Jesus stretched out his hand and caught Peter, and said to him, “O you of little faith, why did you doubt?”
32 After they got into the boat, the wind died down.
33 Those who were in the boat did him homage, saying, “Truly, you are the Son of God.”

REFLECTION:
This Gospel teaches that faith is strongest when trust remains firm even during life's storms. The disciples were afraid because of the strong wind and waves, and Peter began to sink when fear replaced faith. This reminds everyone that focusing on problems instead of God's presence can lead to doubt and discouragement.

The most comforting part of this passage is that Jesus immediately reached out His hand to save Peter. His action shows His mercy, love, and willingness to help those who call upon Him. Even when faith becomes weak, God never turns away from those who seek Him.

This Gospel is a reminder to place complete trust in God, especially during difficult times. Fear and uncertainty may arise, but faith in Jesus brings hope, strength, and peace. With unwavering trust in Him, every storm can become an opportunity to grow closer to God and recognize His constant presence and unfailing love.

PRAYER:
Heavenly Father, thank You for always being present, especially during life's storms. Strengthen every heart to trust in You even when fear and doubt arise. Help everyone to keep their eyes fixed on Jesus and to remember that Your love never fails. Grant the courage to walk in faith, the wisdom to rely on Your guidance, and the confidence to believe that You are always ready to lift up those who call upon You. May every challenge become an opportunity to grow closer to You. Amen.

Thank you for taking the time to read this Gospel reflection. May these words inspire faith, hope, and trust in God, especially during life's challenges. May the Lord continue to bless and guide you each day. Thank you, and God bless!

Sunday Mass Presider: REV. FR. JOSE R. RELENTE
Mass Schedule: Sunday @ 8:00 AM

OPEN YOUR BIBLE AND READ the Gospel according to Matthew 14:13–21;

13 When Jesus heard of the death of John the Baptist, he withdrew in a boat to a deserted place by himself. The crowds heard of this and followed him on foot from their towns.
14 When he disembarked and saw the vast crowd, his heart was moved with pity for them, and he cured their sick.
15 When it was evening, the disciples approached him and said, “This is a deserted place and it is already late; dismiss the crowds so that they can go to the villages and buy food for themselves.”
16 He said to them, “There is no need for them to go away; give them some food yourselves.”
17 But they said to him, “Five loaves and two fish are all we have here.”
18 Then he said, “Bring them here to me,”
19 and he ordered the crowds to sit down on the grass. Taking the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, he said the blessing, broke the loaves, and gave them to the disciples, who in turn gave them to the crowds.
20 They all ate and were satisfied, and they picked up the fragments left over: twelve wicker baskets full.
21 Those who ate were about five thousand men, not counting women and children.

REFLECTION:
In today's Gospel, Jesus shows us that God can do great things through the little we offer with faith. The miracle of the five loaves and two fish reminds us that His blessings begin with a willing heart.

Let us remember the acronym FISH:

F – Feel Compassion for those in need.
I – Invest What You Have, no matter how small it may seem.
S – Surrender to God's Power, trusting Him with your limitations.
H – Help Others Generously, sharing the blessings He has given you.

When we live out these four lessons, we become instruments of God's love, and He can multiply our small acts of kindness into blessings for many. Just as Jesus fed the thousands, He continues to provide more than enough for those who place their trust in Him.

PRAYER:
Heavenly Father, thank You for always providing for our needs. Teach us to trust You, to generously share the blessings You have given us, and to offer even our little with faith. May we become instruments of Your love and compassion to others. Amen.

---

Thank you for joining us today! May the Lord fill your heart with faith, generosity, and hope. Have a blessed Sunday, and may God's abundant love always guide you.

Sunday Mass Presider: Rev. Fr. Jose R. Relente
Mass Schedule: Sunday @ 8:00 AM

OPEN YOUR BIBLE AND READ the Gospel reading according to Matthew 13:24–30;

24 Jesus proposed a parable to the crowds. “The Kingdom of heaven may be likened to a man who sowed good seed in his field.
25 While everyone was asleep his enemy came and sowed weeds all through the wheat, and then went off.
26 When the crop grew and bore fruit, the weeds appeared as well.
27 The slaves of the householder came to him and said, ‘Master, did you not sow good seed in your field? Where have the weeds come from?’
28 He answered, ‘An enemy has done this.’ His slaves said to him, ‘Do you want us to go and pull them up?’
29 He replied, ‘No, if you pull up the weeds you might uproot the wheat along with them.
30 Let them grow together until harvest; then at harvest time I will say to the harvesters, “First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles for burning; but gather the wheat into my barn.”’

REFLECTION:
In today's Gospel, Jesus shares the parable of the wheat and the weeds, teaching us about God's patience and wisdom. The servants wanted to remove the weeds immediately, but the master chose to wait. He understood that acting too quickly could harm the wheat that was still growing.

Like the field in the parable, our lives and communities contain both strengths and weaknesses, virtues and flaws. Sometimes we become frustrated by the imperfections we see in ourselves or in others. We may even be tempted to judge, criticize, or give up on people.

Yet God sees beyond the present moment. He sees the potential for growth, conversion, and transformation.
The Gospel reminds us that while evil exists, it does not have the final word. God continues to nurture the good seed He has planted in our hearts. Our task is not to focus on the weeds but to continue growing in faith, hope, and love, trusting that God will bring justice and fulfillment in His perfect time.

In this Gospel reading, remember the word GROW.
G – Give God time to work in your life.
R – Resist the temptation to judge others quickly.
O – Open your heart to God's patience and mercy.
W – Walk faithfully, bearing good fruits each day.

PRAYER:
Lord, You are the patient gardener who lovingly cares for Your field. Help me to trust in Your timing when I become discouraged by the challenges around me. Teach me to grow in faith rather than focus on the faults of others.

Remove the weeds of pride, anger, and doubt from my heart, and nourish the seeds of love, kindness, and humility within me. May I become fruitful in Your service and remain faithful until the harvest You have prepared. In Jesus' name, Amen.

Thank you for connecting through the Gospel today! May God's patience, wisdom, and love guide you throughout the week. Continue to grow in faith and bear fruits that bring glory to Him. Have a blessed Sunday everyone! 💛
