• Responsorial Psalm – Psalm 126: The Lord has done great things for us; we are filled with joy.

The LORD restored Zion’s captives, filling us with joy. Nations recognized God’s deeds. We pray for renewed fortunes, knowing those who sow in tears will reap in joy, bringing in their harvest.

• Second Reading – Hebrews 5:1-6: High priests are chosen from among men to offer sacrifices for sins. Christ, called by God, is a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek, not by self-glorification.

• Gospel – Mark 10:46-52: Bartimaeus, a blind beggar, called out to Jesus for mercy. Despite being told to be quiet, he persisted. Jesus healed him, saying his faith had saved him. Bartimaeus then followed Jesus.

(Before singing any Marian Song as recessional, ask the permission of your Parish Priest if ok lang ba to use it. However, it's important to note:

·       No Hard and Fast Rule: There's no official prohibition against singing Marian hymns during the recessional. The choice of music is often left to the discretion of the priest and the parish music director.
·       Honoring Mary: Singing Marian hymns is a way of honoring the Blessed Virgin Mary, who is revered as the Mother of God in the Catholic Church. Her role in salvation history is significant, and many Catholics find solace and inspiration in her intercession.
 
Ultimately, the decision of what music to sing during the recessional is a matter of pastoral judgment and should be guided by a desire to enhance the liturgical celebration and promote the spiritual growth of the congregation.)
