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 the Sixth Sunday of Easter, Year A.
Through His Suffering, Death, and Resurrection, Christ
reconciled us sinners to God the Father.
The fruit of reconciliation by Christ has grown greater when we are
brought to the communion in the divine life if we are united with Christ by
keeping His Commandment of charity.
We pray in this Holy
Mass for the blessing of understanding the Gospel message and of putting it
into practice in our everyday life.
Kindly all
stand for the entrance hymn.
b)
To the Readings
-
First Reading Acts 8:5-8.14-17
The power of the Risen Lord enables believers who are just
simple and ordinary people to do great things beyond human understanding, such
as the conversion of well-known officials among the Gentiles.
-
Second Reading 1 Pt 3:15-18
Being
witnesses to what they believe, Christians should be able to offer right and
timely solutions to the questions frequently asked by their contemporaries with
regard to their faith and hope.
