HOLY SATURDAY

"Because of the Preparation Day of the Jews, they laid Jesus in a new tomb in which no one had yet been laid." - Jn. 19:41-42

Our New Life in Christ

Reflection: The reading in the Paschal Vigil carry us into the mysterious arena where human sin meets God's justice and mercy. There life and death "have contended," and there the victory of the risen Christ over death stands out as the source of our salvation and the model of Christian living (Pope Paul VI).

Prayer: Lord, as we await in silence the outpouring of joy with which we will celebrate Your Resurrection, help me to prepare diligently.

"With a tenderness that never disappoints, but is always capable of restoring our joy, Jesus makes it possible for us to lift up our heads and to start anew." - Pope Francis

"We do not give because we have, we give because we love. If we do not embrace this way of thinking, we will never be free. Pope Francis is quite right when he says that nobody is so poor that he is not able to give something, be it ever so little. It is not how much you give that is important, but the spirit with which you give." - Cardinal Ouédraogo

"Mga minamahal na kapatid, mag ingat ingat tayo sa mga palihim lihim na yan. Yung mga itinatago tagong yan kadalasan masama yan. Dahil kung yan ay tunay na mabuti bakit mo ililihim? Bakit mo itatago? Yung tunay na kabutihan ipinapakita. Tulad ng pagbubunyag ng Diyos ng kanyang sarili. Pero yung mga bagay na itinatago, atin atin lang, walang makakaalam. Yang mga bagay na yan madalas ay kasamaan at kasalanan." - Rev. Fr. Reginald Malicdem

"For You are my refuge, a tower of strength against the enemy." - Ps 61:4

Trust the Lord

Reflection: Stand fast in your confidence. If you are armed with the armor of faith nothing can harm you. You have real protection in the Lord and this knowledge will give you peace of mind.

Prayer: Dear Lord, I will not be afraid, for You are always at my side.

Prayer to the Immaculate Heart of Mary

O Immaculate Heart of Mary, Heavenly beauty and splendor of the Father, You are the most valued Heavenly treasure.

New Eve, immaculate in soul, spirit and body, Created of the godly seed by the Spirit of God, You are the spiritual Mother of mankind.

Pure Virgin, full of grace then and now, Your whole being was raised Heavenly in full glory, To be elevated above all the hosts within the Kingdom of God.
O Heavenly Mother, Queen of Heaven and earth, I recognize the glory of your highest title, The Immaculate Heart of Mary!

Loving Mother, dispenser of endless blessings, You who continuously intercedes on our behalf, Please present my need before your loving Son Jesus.
(In your own words, make your special request here. Do not just mention a word. Speak to the Immaculate Heart of Mary as you would speak to another person, begging your Heavenly Mother to plea to Jesus on your behalf, that you be granted this special request.)

O Immaculate Heart of Mary, I know that you are now presenting my need before Jesus, For you have never turned away those in dire need.
Mother dearest, I await your favorable answer, Submitting myself to the Divine will of the Lord, For all glories are His forever and ever.

I will see you again and your hearts will rejoice and no one shall deprive you of your joy. - Jn. 16:22Make This Day Mea...

"Jesus came and proclaimed peace to you who were far away and peace to those who were near." - Eph 2:17

LET YOUR TEARS FLOW

Reflection: Tears are good for the soul. Sometimes our disappointments are overwhelming. When you feel your worst, and your tears begin to flow, offer them to the Lord. "Your tears are collected by the Angels and placed in a golden chalice. You will find them again one day when you present yourself before God." - St. Padre Pio

Prayer: Dear Lord, I offer You all my joys and sorrows.

"In our littleness, God still looks at us with love and mercy. We are valuable to God. We are precious to God. We are loved by God. The gospel invites us to look up to the many Zacchaeus in our family, in our community. Let's appreciate their efforts. When we look up to people it make them realize their value and it will change them." - Fr. ???

"If you want to know about God, there is only one way to do it: get down on your knees. You can make his acquaintance by investigation, but you can win his love only by loving..." - Fulton J. Sheen

"Mayroong tatlong puntos ang ebanghelyo ngayong linggo,

1. We cannot claim everything for ourselves. Hindi lahat ay akin, hindi lahat sa iyo. Napaka talino ng Diyos na ibahagi ang biyaya para sa lahat at hindi sa iilan lang. Ang Diyos alam niya ang ating pangangailangan kaya ibibigay niya kung ano ang para sa atin.

2. Your work for God should not be an excuse to neglect your people. Your work for others should not be your substitute for your work for God. Sapalagay niyo ba magugustuhan ng Diyos na buong araw kayong nasa parokya pero napapabayaan niyo na ang pamilya niyo? Hindi! Huwag niyong gamiting dahilan ang gawain niyo sa simbahan para makatakas kayo sa tungkulin niyo sa pamilya niyo. Kung ano ang dapat mong ibigay sa pamilya mo, ibigay mo. Kung ano ang dapat sa Diyos ibigay mo sa Diyos.

3. Everyone has a corresponding and appropriate need. For example,
*Your kids needs your time. Give time to your kids.
*Your wife not your work needs your love.
*God needs your faith. Kailangang makita Niya yung taong nilikha niya ay may pananampalataya sa kanya.

Give to Caesar what is due to Caesar. And give to God what is due to God."

- Rev. Fr. Rey Tumbocon's homily
