A. Introduction
a) To the Holy Mass
Dear Sisters and
Brothers in Christ,
Good morning!
Welcome to Saint
Dominic’s Parish Church for our Sunday Holy Mass celebration.
Today we celebrate the solemnity of the Most Blessed Sacrament of the Body and
Blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ to profess our faith in the real presence of the
Lord in the figures of bread and wine, firmly believing what He taught and
promised to those receiving and consuming His flesh and blood. He said,
“Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life.”
We offer in this Holy
Mass our deep thanksgiving and praise for Christ’s great love for us and our
sincere commitment to living up to His Commandment of love.
Please all stand for the
entrance hymn.
b) To the Readings
- First Reading Dt 8:2-3.14b-16a
The Great Prophet Moses
in the Book of Deuteronomy reminds the People of Israel of the reality that
material things cannot satisfy man’s needs simply because he was made of flesh
and spirit. The Word of the Living God is capable of bringing the
fullness of life to those believing in Christ Who Himself is the Divine Word
made flesh.
- Second Reading 1 Cor 10:16-17
Saint Paul strongly teaches
Christians that the bread and wine which they share in the Holy Mass are truly
the Body and Blood of the Lord sacrificed for the forgiveness of our sins and
for our life in communion with Christ.
