Holy Saturday - Maraming pagbasa at kinakantang salmo sa madilim na simbahan (court). Ayan ang kapansin-pansin tuwing Sabado de Gloria. Ang pinakagusto ko naman ay kapag bubuksan na ang ilaw at kakantahin ang “Papuri.” Kung napansin niyo hindi kinakanta ang Papuri at Alleluia during lent kaya talagang nakakaexcite kapag muling maririnig. Para bang pakiramdam ng isang nanliligaw kapag narinig niya na ang “Yes, I love you too” ng nililigawan niya. Ito rin ang panahon na nirerenew natin ang ating pangako sa binyag. Sasagot sa mga tanong ni padre ng “Opo, sumasampalataya at Opo, itinatakwil namin.” Kaya ginagawa ito taun-taon dahil may isip na tayong magconfirm sa mga pananampalataya natin. Noong tayo’y bininyagan, ang mga ninong at ninang natin ang sumagot sa pari in behalf of us. Isa pa ipinapaalala ang ating faith. O diba, puwede ng kahalili ni Father sa homily. Hehehe. Magagaling ang mga parish priests sa SILP kaya natanim sa isip ko. Maraming kulang sa paliwanag pero makakatulong na r...

The First Word – (Luke 23:34) - “Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do” The Second Word – (Luke 23:43) - “Amen, I say to thee, today thou shalt be with me in Paradise.” The Third Word – (John 19:26-27) – “ Woman, behold thy son… Behold thy mother” The Fourth Word – (Mark 15:34) – “My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken The Fifth Word- (John 19:28) – “I thirst. “ me?” The Sixth Word – (John 19:30) – “It is consummated.” The Seventh Word – (Luke 23:46) – “Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit.” Hello mga kablog! Gaya ng ipinangako ko, magbabahagi ako para sa 7 last words. Para sa kaalaman ng ibang bloggers, bukod sa Good Friday service, mayroon din kaming 7 sharers ng 7 last words sa San Isidro Labrador. Hindi ko pa naranasang magbahagi sa 7 last words kaya igagrab ko na ang opportunity ngayon. Habang pinagninilayan ko ang huling pitong wika ni Hesus, naisip kong magfocus sa mga OFWs. Noong una akala ko isang salita lang ang magagamit ko pero puwede ko palang...

Thursday of the Holy Week So when he had washed their feet and put his garments back on and reclined at table again, he said to them, "Do you realize what I have done for you? You call me 'teacher' and 'master,' and rightly so, for indeed I am. If I, therefore, the master and teacher, have washed your feet, you ought to wash one another's feet. I have given you a model to follow, so that as I have done for you, you should also do." Washing of the feet - Sigurado akong busy na naman si Nanay sa pagkumpleto ng plangganita, pitsel at mapuputing face towels na gagamitin sa ceremony mamaya. Ano nga ba talagang ibig sabihin ng paghuhugas ni Hesus ng mga paa ng mga alagad Niya? Ilagay na agad natin sa sitwasyon sa simbahan para mas madaling intindihin. Si Padre ang pinakapinuno sa parokya. Sa paghugas niya ng paa ng mga parishioners niya, ibig sabihin nagpapakumbaba siya. Ang paliwanag nga ng isang pari, bago mo raw mahugasan ang paa ng isang tao kailangan mong l...

Gospel Jn 13:21-33, 36-38 Reclining at table with his disciples, Jesus was deeply troubled and testified, "Amen, amen, I say to you, one of you will betray me." The disciples looked at one another, at a loss as to whom he meant. One of his disciples, the one whom Jesus loved, was reclining at Jesus' side. So Simon Peter nodded to him to find out whom he meant. He leaned back against Jesus' chest and said to him, "Master, who is it?" Jesus answered, "It is the one to whom I hand the morsel after I have dipped it." So he dipped the morsel and took it and handed it to Judas, son of Simon the Iscariot. After Judas took the morsel, Satan entered him. So Jesus said to him, "What you are going to do, do quickly." Now none of those reclining at table realized why he said this to him. Some thought that since Judas kept the money bag, Jesus had told him, "Buy what we need for the feast," or to give something to the poor. So Judas took the...

Reading 1 Is 42:1-7 I formed you, and set you as a covenant of the people, a light for the nations, To open the eyes of the blind, to bring out prisoners from confinement, and from the dungeon, those who live in darkness. Gospel Jn 12:1-11 "You always have the poor with you, but you do not always have me." Monday of the Holy Week. Wow. Heto na ang pinakahihintay matapos ang 5 linggong lent. 2 thoughts ang ikoconnect ko sa blog ngayong araw. Paggising ko kaninang umaga, nag-isip ako ng puwede kong gawin sa unang araw ng holy week. Though talagang ang pinakapuso ng Holy Week ay Friday (ewan ko kung tama nga) at ang Triduum naman ay Thu, Fri at Sat., minabuti ko ng may gawing kaaya-aya sa bawat araw ng holy week. Ang hirap namang magpakabait (Almsgiving), magdasal nang mas marami (Prayeful) at lalo naman ang kumain nang kaunti (Fasting) kaya sabi ko sa blog ko na lang idadaan. Let’s start. Nakakuwentuhan ko ang isang kaibigan tungkol sa sacrifices niya during lent. Though hindi ...
