33rd Sunday in Ordinary Time - Year B - November 17, 2024

 Salamat po sa pagbisita.

The 33rd Sunday in Ordinary Time Year B invites us to reflect on the end times and the hope we have in Christ. The readings highlight themes of final judgment, perseverance, and salvation.

• Final Judgment: Daniel 12:1-3 talks about a time of great distress but also about those who will be saved. It reminds us that there will be a final judgment where the faithful will shine like stars.

• Resurrection and Eternal Life: In Daniel, we hear about those who sleep in the dust awakening to everlasting life. This gives us hope in the promise of resurrection and eternal life with God.

• Christ’s Sacrifice: Hebrews 10:11-14, 18 speaks of Jesus’ single sacrifice for sins. It emphasizes that through Jesus, we are forgiven and made holy.

• Perseverance in Faith: The readings encourage us to stay firm in our faith, even during difficult times. This perseverance is necessary to receive the promises of God.

• Hope in Tribulation: Mark 13:24-32 describes the coming of the Son of Man during troubling times. Despite these tribulations, we have hope in Jesus’ return and ultimate victory.

• God’s Faithfulness: The readings highlight that God will fulfill His promises. We can trust in His faithfulness even when the world seems uncertain.

These themes for the 33rd Sunday in Ordinary Time Year B remind us of the importance of faith and hope in the face of trials. They encourage us to stay faithful, knowing that God’s promises will be fulfilled in the end.

33rd Sunday in Ordinary Time - Year A - November 19, 2023

 
For the nth time, we are very sorry for not doing any updates last week here. We are so busy doing our part time jobs and school activities, hope you understand our situation dear brothers and sisters.
 
The readings for the 33rd Sunday in Ordinary Time Year A are a call to do the work of the Kingdom of God with the gifts we have been given. The first reading sings the praises of the worthy wife who uses her talents to labor for good. The psalm tells us that those who follow the Lord are blessed. The second reading reminds us that we are children of light and goodness. And in the gospel Jesus tells the parable of the talents and praises the servants who used their resources wisely.
 
Themes:

• Stewardship: The passage emphasizes the importance of wisely managing resources or gifts given by God.

• Accountability: Each servant in the parable is held accountable for how they use their talents, highlighting the theme of personal responsibility.

• Risk and Growth: The servants who invest their talents are taking a risk, suggesting that spiritual growth often involves stepping out of one’s comfort zone.

• Work Ethic: The servants who double their talents work hard, suggesting the value of effort and diligence in spiritual life.

• Divine Judgment: The passage suggests that there will be a time of reckoning where each individual will be judged based on their actions.

• Inequality: The talents are distributed unevenly at the start, which may prompt considerations about the spiritual implications of inequality.

 
Entrance:
1.      Lungsod nga Balaan, in preparation for the Kristori
2.      Diosnong Magtutudlo
3.      Pagmamahal sa Panginoon (Hontiveros)
4.      Buksan ang Aming Puso (Tinio, Hontiveros) Stanzas 2 and 3 ang priority. People should get rid of the idea that this song is exclusively for Lent. Siguro dahil sa ang message ng song is about reforming ourselves expressed through changing the work of our hands, minds and hearts for the better, tapos naman ang message ng Lent is repentance and reform for the better, nag-stick. But really kahit hindi Lent maaari itong kantahin, for as long as the readings are about reform for the better, or more particularly, acknowledging the need for reform.
5.      All My Days (Schutte, Murray) “Till the end of my days” 
6.      The Lord is My Light Foley (Foley) Swak sa 2R.
 
Readings:

• First Reading – Proverbs 31:10-13, 19-20, 30-31: A good wife is invaluable, trusted by her husband and doing good all her life. She’s hardworking and charitable, deserving of praise especially for her fear of the LORD.

• Responsorial Psalm – Psalm 128: Blessed are those who fear the Lord.

Those who fear the LORD and walk in His ways are blessed. They enjoy fruitful labor, a prosperous family, and lifelong blessings from God.

• Second Reading – 1 Thessalonians 5:1-6: The day of the Lord will arrive unexpectedly. While others may be caught off guard, believers are children of light and should stay alert and sober.

• Gospel – Matthew 25:14-30: A man going on a journey entrusts his servants with different amounts of money. Two servants invest and double their money, receiving praise and more responsibility from their master upon his return. The third servant hides his money and is chastised for his inaction, losing even what he had.

RESPONSORIAL PSALM                         PS 98:5-6, 7-8, 9
R. (cf. 9)  The Lord comes to rule the earth with justice.
Sing praise to the LORD with the harp,
with the harp and melodious song.
With trumpets and the sound of the horn

READING 2                          2 THES 3:7-12
Brothers and sisters:
You know how one must imitate us.
For we did not act in a disorderly way among you,
nor did we eat food received free from anyone.
On the contrary, in toil and drudgery, night and day
we worked, so as not to burden any of you.
Not that we do not have the right.
Rather, we wanted to present ourselves as a model for you,
so that you might imitate us.
In fact, when we were with you,
we instructed you that if anyone was unwilling to work,
neither should that one eat.
We hear that some are conducting themselves among you in a
disorderly way,
by not keeping busy but minding the business of others.
Such people we instruct and urge in the Lord Jesus Christ to work quietly
and to eat their own food.
 
ALLELUIA                            LK 21:28
R. Alleluia, alleluia.
Stand erect and raise your heads
because your redemption is at hand.
R. Alleluia, alleluia.
 
GOSPEL                               LK 21:5-19
While some people were speaking about
how the temple was adorned with costly stones and votive offerings,
Jesus said, "All that you see here--
the days will come when there will not be left
a stone upon another stone that will not be thrown down."
 
Then they asked him,
"Teacher, when will this happen?
And what sign will there be when all these things are about to happen?"
He answered,
"See that you not be deceived,
for many will come in my name, saying,
'I am he,' and 'The time has come.'
Do not follow them!
When you hear of wars and insurrections,
do not be terrified; for such things must happen first,
but it will not immediately be the end."
Then he said to them,
"Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.
There will be powerful earthquakes, famines, and plagues
from place to place;
and awesome sights and mighty signs will come from the sky.
 

"Before all this happens, however,
they will seize and persecute you,
they will hand you over to the synagogues and to prisons,
and they will have you led before kings and governors
because of my name.
It will lead to your giving testimony.
Remember, you are not to prepare your defense beforehand,
for I myself shall give you a wisdom in speaking
that all your adversaries will be powerless to resist or refute.
You will even be handed over by parents, brothers, relatives, and friends,
and they will put some of you to death.
You will be hated by all because of my name,
but not a hair on your head will be destroyed.
By your perseverance you will secure your lives."

First Reading                                  Dn 12:1-3
In those days, I Daniel,
heard this word of the Lord:
"At that time there shall arise
Michael, the great prince,
guardian of your people;
it shall be a time unsurpassed in distress
since nations began until that time.
At that time your people shall escape,
everyone who is found written in the book.
 
"Many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake;
some shall live forever,
others shall be an everlasting horror and disgrace.
 
"But the wise shall shine brightly
like the splendor of the firmament,
and those who lead the many to justice
shall be like the stars forever."
 
Responsorial Psalm                                     Ps 16:5, 8, 9-10, 11
R. (1) You are my inheritance, O Lord!
O LORD, my allotted portion and my cup,
you it is who hold fast my lot.
I set the LORD ever before me;
with him at my right hand I shall not be disturbed.
R. You are my inheritance, O Lord!
Therefore my heart is glad and my soul rejoices,
my body, too, abides in confidence;
because you will not abandon my soul to the netherworld,
nor will you suffer your faithful one to undergo corruption.
R. You are my inheritance, O Lord!
You will show me the path to life,
fullness of joys in your presence,
the delights at your right hand forever.
R. You are my inheritance, O Lord!
 
Second Reading                        Heb 10:11-14, 18
Brothers and sisters:
Every priest stands daily at his ministry,
offering frequently those same sacrifices
that can never take away sins.
But this one offered one sacrifice for sins,
and took his seat forever at the right hand of God;
now he waits until his enemies are made his footstool.
For by one offering
he has made perfect forever those who are being consecrated.
 
Where there is forgiveness of these,
there is no longer offering for sin.
 
GOSPEL                                        Mk 13:24-32
Jesus said to his disciples:
"In those days after that tribulation
the sun will be darkened,
and the moon will not give its light,
and the stars will be falling from the sky,
and the powers in the heavens will be shaken.
 

"And then they will see 'the Son of Man coming in the clouds'
with great power and glory,
and then he will send out the angels
and gather his elect from the four winds,
from the end of the earth to the end of the sky.
 
"Learn a lesson from the fig tree.
When its branch becomes tender and sprouts leaves,
you know that summer is near.
In the same way, when you see these things happening,
know that he is near, at the gates.
Amen, I say to you,
this generation will not pass away
until all these things have taken place.
Heaven and earth will pass away,
but my words will not pass away.
 
"But of that day or hour, no one knows,
neither the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father."
