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.
Today as we celebrate the Second Sunday of Easter, the
message of the Gospel reporting the story of Saint Thomas tells us to
personalize our faith in Christ’s Resurrection.
We need the Church community to teach us the basic catechism on God’s
mysteries. We need our parents and
friends to explain to us how to put what we have learned about Christian Way of
life into practice. It is more
important, however, to make what we believe our own conviction so as for each
and one of us to profess, as we do in reciting the Creed, “I believe.”
Kindly all stand for the entrance hymn.

To the Readings
-
First Reading Acts 2:42-47
The Resurrection of the Lord has a tremendous impact on the
lives of the believers in Him Who conquered the evil consequences of sin. The first Christian community lived a life no
longer for themselves but for the Lord in the breaking of bread, and others
when they shared with one another all that they had.
-
Second Reading 1 Pt 1:3-9
Saint Peter stresses the truth that our faith needs being
tested and purified through suffering and trials so as to become more shining
in times of darkness and confusion.
