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 Third Sunday of
Easter.
The
Risen Lord is present in every moment of our life as He has promised. He always comes to our rescue when we fall
into difficult and hopeless situations.
After strengthening us by His powerful love, He sends us to mission and
makes us witnesses of God saving mercy.
We
pray to our Lord Jesus Christ for the grace of new life, filled with joy and
peace, so as to bring the Good News of salvation to all people.
Please
all stand for the entrance hymn.

To the Readings

First Reading Acts 3:13-15.17-19:
Saint Peter
and the first Christians were confident in the proclamation of the truth of the
Risen Lord. They spoke not as well
trained orators but as witnesses of what had happened concerning the suffering,
death, and resurrection of our Lord, Jesus Christ.
-
Second Reading 1 Jn 2:1-5a:
Christians
who were reborn to new life in Christ through the Sacrament of Baptism have to
live up to God’s Commandments.
