LITURGY OF THE WORD:

Procession Song

LET THE CHILDREN COME TO ME

I- Let the children come to me
that’s what Jesus said
Let the children come to me
that’s what Jesus said

II- Jesus when I am afraid

I can come to you
Jesus when I am afraid
I can come to you
 III- Thank you Jesus
Thank you Jesus
Thank you Jesus
I can come to you
(REPEAT I,II,II)

First Reading Is 52:7-10

The invitation to “break out together in song,” originally addressed to the exiles before they
returned to Jerusalem, is addressed to us today. God’s gifts of salvation and peace are offered to all in
Jesus Christ.

Reader: (Janine France Josol)

A proclamation form the Book of the Prophet Isaiah

How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him who brings glad tidings
announcing peace, bearing good news, announcing salvation, and saying to Zion, “ Your God
is King!”
Hark! Your sentinels raise cry, together they shout for joy, for they see directly, before
their eyes, the Lord restoring Zion. Break out together in song, O ruins of Jerusalem!
For the Lord comforts his people, he redeems Jerusalem. The Lord has bared his arm in
the sight of all the nations; all the ends of the earth will behold the salvation of our God.
The Word of the Lord!

All- Thanks be to God!

Responsorial Psalm: Ps 98 (Jaeven Matthew Josol)

Response- All the ends of the earth have seen the saving power of God!
 Sing to the Lord a new song, for he has done wondrous deeds, his right hand has won
victory for him, his holy arm. (R)
 The Lord has made his salvation known: in the sight of the nations he has revealed his
justice. He has remembered his kindness and his faithfulness toward the house of
Israel. (R)
 All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation by our God. Sing joyfully to the
Lord, all you lands; break into song; sing praise! (R)
 Sing praise to the Lord with the harp, with the harp and melodious song. With
trumpets and the sound of the horn, sing joyfully before the King, the Lord! ( R)
2nd Reading: Heb 1:1-6
Here is a beautiful synthesis of all that we believe about Jesus Christ, the eternal Son of
God who became a human being for our salvation .

Reader: (Jmee Michelle Josol)

A proclamation form the Letter to the Hebrews
Brothers and sisters: In times past, God spoke in partial and various ways to our
ancestors through the prophets. In these last days, he has spoken to us through the Son, whom
he made heir of all things and through whom he created the universe.
He is the refulgence of God’s glory, the very imprint of his being and who sustains all
things by his mighty word. When he had accomplished purification from sins, he took his seat at
the right hand of the Majesty on high, as far superior to the angels as the name he has inherited
is more excellent than heirs.
For to which of the angels did God ever say: You are my son; this day I have begotten
you”? Or again: “ I will be a father to him, and he shall be a son to me”? And again, when he
leads the firstborn into the world, he says: “ Let all the angels of God worship him.”
The Word of the Lord!

All- Thanks be to God!

Gospel Acclamation
All- Alleluia! Alleluia!

Gospel Reading: Jn. 1: 1-5, 9-14(Fr. Marbendear Morallas)

The “prologue” of St. John’s Gospel emphasizes that the man Jesus Christ, who was born of
the Virgin Mary, is the Eternal Word of God who “was with God from the beginning.” He comes to
reveal to us the love of the Father and to enable us to become God’s adopted children.
Priest - The Lord be with you!
All - And with your spirit!
Priest- A proclamation from the holy Gospel according to John.
All- Glory to you, O Lord!

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He
was in the beginning with God. All things came to be through him, and without him nothing
came to be.
What came to be through him was life, and this life was the light of the human race. The
light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
The true light, which enlightens everyone, was coming into the world. He was in the
world, and the world came to be through him, but the world did not know him. He came to what
was his own, but his own people did not accept him.
 But to those who did accept him he gave power to become children of God, to those who
believe in his name, who were born not by natural generation nor by human choice noy by a
man’s decision but of God.
And the Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us, and we saw his glory, the
glory as of the Father’s only Son, full of grace and truth.
The Gospel of the Lord!
All- Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ!

Homily
(Fr. Marbendear Morallas)
Profession of Faith
All - I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible
and invisible.
I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all
ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial
with the Father; through him all things were made. For us men and for our salvation he came down
from heaven, (bow) *and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man.*
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered death was buried, and rose again on the
third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of
the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no
end.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the
Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets.
I believe on one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church. I confess one Baptism for the
forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come.
Amen!

P- The Lord be with you!

All - And with your spirit!
P- Lift up your hearts!
All- We lift them up to the Lord!
P- Let us give thanks to the Lord our God!
All- It is right and just!

P- It is truly right and just, our duty and our salvation, always and everywhere to give you thanks, Lord,
holy Father, almighty and eternal God, through Christ our Lord.
For on the feast of this awe-filled mystery, though invisible in his own divine nature, he has appeared
visibly in ours; and begotten before all ages, he has begun to exist in time; so that, raising up in
himself all that was cast down, he might restore unity to all creation and call straying humanity back to
the heavenly Kingdom.
And so, with all the Angels, we praise you, as in joyful celebration we acclaim:
All- Holy, holy, holy Lord, God of hosts. Heaven and earth are full of your glory. Hosanna in the
highest! Blesses is he who comes in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest!

Pasko Nanaman

Pasko na naman, o kay tulin ng araw.

Paskong nagdaan tila bago kaylan lang.
Ngayon ay pasko dapat pasalamatan.
Ngayon ay pasko tayo ay mag awitan.
Nasubukan mo na bang mangarolin pag pasko sa tabi ng riles
Sa kahirapan ng buhay laging gulay noche buena mo ay dilis.
Lumalamig ang simoy ng hangin pero wala ka namang jacket.
Kung trabaho ko lang ay maid na wala kang pera pero teka muna ni wala ka ngang wallet!
Habang lahat ay nag shoshopping wala kang magawa kundi humimbing.
At pagkagising kayod para makakain laging sinasalubong ng hangin.
At ano ba sa palagay mo ang dapat na gawin ng isang tulad,
Ko na sa pasko ay mas mabuti pang mabingi at mabulag,
Habang inaawit ang
