Mass Line-Up for November 2, 2011 (as suggested by JR MEDINA)

SONG LINE UP SUGGESTIONS

Wednesday, 2 Nov 2011
Commemoration of All The Faithful Departed
(All Souls’ Day)
(Paggunita sa Lahat ng Mga Pumanaw na Kristyano)

Liturgical Color: Purple or White


Short catechesis:

Please note that strictly speaking, this day is neither a solemnity nor a feast.

Kung ang Nov 2 ay pumatak sa araw ng Linggo, at dahil wala namang nakasulat na kelangan tanggalin, mayroong Gloria.

But this year, pumatak ang Nov 2 sa weekday (Wednesday). The Gloria is not mandatory for weekday commemorations of AllSouls Day.


Readings:

1R: Wisdom 3:1-9. The souls of the just are well and comfortable. Initially they will appear to be suffering, but this is superficial. In time they shall be greatly blessed, for God found them to be worthy to be with Him.


RP: The famous Psalm 23. The Lord is my shepherd. There is nothing I shall want.


G: The Judgment of the Nations: the story about the "sheep" being placed at God's right; the "goats" on His left. Then, "Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and gave You drink?"... "What you did not do for one of these least ones, you did not do for Me." And these will go off to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life."
