San Antonio de Padua GKK

Mintal, Davao City

Introduction
(19th Sunday Ordinary Time)


A pleasant day to everyone!

        Today’s liturgy focuses on our vigilant faith. We must be like faithful servants who stay awake waiting for their master. We need to open our hearts and minds so that we shall be aware of the Lord’s coming into our lives, be it in moments of prayer and recollection, in active service to our brothers and sisters, or in dramatic events.
Our waiting must be an active waiting.
       
To begin our celebration, let us all stand for the entrance hymn.

Prayers of the Faithful
(19th Sunday Ordinary Time)


(Priest):            The Lord Jesus has set us as faithful stewards over his people. May we remain ever vigilant and faithful. Aware of our limitations, we pray.
“Lord, make us your faithful servant.”

(Reader):
·       May the community of God’s people set their hearts on never-failing treasures: faith, hope, love, peace, and life eternal. We pray: (R)

·       May our Church and government leaders attend to the needs of the people with wisdom and gentleness, never lording over God’s flock but giving it a shepherd’s care. We pray: (R)

·       May there be more leaders, prophets, and witnesses of faith who will keep alive our hope for a better world, for a more just society, for greater brotherhood and sisterhood among men and women. We pray: (R)

·       May young people not measure success solely in terms of material possessions but instead see in it an opportunity to render service to their neighbors. We pray: (R)

·       May our beloved dead be welcomed as good servants by the Lord in His kingdom, and there enjoy the peace and happiness of the just. We pray: (R)

(Priest):            Father, grant that we who partake in your table of love be also eager to share this love to others.

We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Feast of the Ascension of the Lord: Cycle C

Introduction (Feast of the Ascension of the Lord) A pleasant day to everyone and Happy Mother’s Day to all mothers! Today we celebrate Ascension Sunday, the time when the Risen Christ goes up to heaven to take his place at the right hand of the Father. In his exultation, Christ receives sovereign authority and power over creation and all history. But the Ascension is also a saving event for us. “It is much better for you that I go . .  If I go, I will send the Paraclete to you”. The Risen Christ continues to work with us amid our current situation and realities. Today, we also celebrate the 47 th World Communications Day with the theme proposed by Pope Benedict XVI:   “Social Networks: portals of truth and faith; new spaces for evangelization.”   May our choices, preferences and judgments be fully consistent with the Gospel.         Please rise for the entrance hymn!

Twenty-seventh Sunday in Ordinary Time   Entrance: I Sing The Mighty Power of God Table Of Plenty Great is Our God Kyrie: Lord Have Mercy Light from Light Gloria: Glory to God (Tinnah) Gospel Ac: Alleluia (Light from Light) Reading 1 GN 2:18-24 The LORD God said: "It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a suitable partner for him." So the LORD God formed out of the ground various wild animals and various birds of the air, and he brought them to the man to see what he would call them; whatever the man called each of them would be its name.  The man gave names to all the cattle, all the birds of the air, and all wild animals; but none proved to be the suitable partner for the man. So the LORD God cast a deep sleep on the man, and while he was asleep, he took out one of his ribs and closed up its place with flesh. The LORD God then built up into a woman the rib that he had taken from the man. When he brought her to the man, the man said: "This one,...
