14th Sunday in Ordinary Time - Year C - July 7, 2025

 The 14th Sunday in Ordinary Time Year C invites us to reflect on themes of peace, joy, and discipleship. The readings remind us of God’s blessings, our call to share the Gospel, and the hope we find in Christ.

  • Joy in God’s blessings: Isaiah speaks of rejoicing in God’s care, showing how He comforts His people. This reminds us to trust in His love and rejoice in His blessings.
  • Peace as a gift: The readings highlight God’s gift of peace. Jesus tells His disciples to bring peace wherever they go, showing that peace is central to Christian life.
  • Trust in God’s care: Isaiah shows how God takes care of His people like a mother caring for her child. This reminds us to trust that God provides for all our needs.
  • Boasting in the Cross: Paul reminds us to glory only in the Cross of Christ. The Cross is a sign of God’s love and the source of our salvation.
  • Call to discipleship: Jesus sends His followers out in pairs to share the Good News. This reminds us that we are called to work together to spread God’s message.
  • Hope in eternal life: Jesus tells His disciples to rejoice because their names are written in heaven. This reminds us that our ultimate joy is in eternal life with God.

The 14th Sunday in Ordinary Time Year C reminds us of the joy, peace, and hope that come from God. The readings call us to trust in Him, share His message, and focus on the promise of eternal life.

  • Responsorial Psalm – Psalm 66: Let all the earth cry out to God with joy.

  • Gospel – Luke 10:1-12, 17-20: Jesus sends out seventy-two disciples to go ahead of him and proclaim the good news of the kingdom of God, instructing them to rely on God’s provision and hospitality, and to shake off any dust from towns that reject them. The disciples return with joy, reporting that even demons were subject to them in Jesus’ name, and Jesus rejoices that their names are written in heaven.

Solemnity of Saints Peter and Paul

 Saints Peter and Paul are two of the most important figures in the history of the Church. They were leaders who spread the message of Jesus and helped build the early Christian community. Both are remembered as apostles who gave their lives for their faith. The Church celebrates them together because of their deep connection in spreading the Gospel.

Peter was one of the twelve apostles chosen by Jesus. He became the leader of the apostles and is known as the first Pope. Jesus called Peter “the rock” on which He would build His Church. Peter’s role was to guide and strengthen the early Christians.

Paul was not one of the twelve apostles, but he became an important leader. At first, Paul persecuted Christians, but he had a powerful experience of Jesus and became a believer. Paul traveled far and preached to people who had never heard about Jesus. He wrote letters that helped explain the teachings of the Church.

Peter and Paul both died in Rome as martyrs. They gave their lives to follow Jesus. The Church celebrates their feast day on June 29 to honor their work and their sacrifice. Their stories show the courage and faith that built the Church.

Readings:
  • First Reading – Acts 12:1-11: Herod imprisoned Peter to appease the Jews. With the Church praying fervently for Peter, an angel appeared, shining light into his cell. Unchained, Peter followed the angel past guards, through self-opening gates, to freedom.
  • Responsorial Psalm – Psalm 34: Bless the Lord always, his praise fills my mouth. Join me in exalting His name. He answers, dispels fears, and fills us with joy. The Lord’s angel protects those who fear Him, blessing those who seek refuge.
  • Second Reading – 2 Timothy 4:6-8, 17-18: I, Paul, see my end near, but I’ve run my race well, keeping the faith. A crown of righteousness awaits me. The Lord gave me strength, protection, and will guide me to His heavenly Kingdom. Amen.
  • Gospel – Matthew 16:13-19: Jesus asks His disciples about the people’s opinions regarding His identity. Simon Peter declares that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God. Jesus acknowledges Peter’s revelation, affirming that upon him, whom He calls Peter, He will build His Church, and the powers of death will not overcome it. Jesus entrusts Peter with the keys of the Kingdom, granting him authority to bind and loose matters on earth and in heaven.

6th Sunday of Easter - Year C - May 25, 2025

 
The 6th Sunday of Easter Year C brings us closer to the heart of the early Church’s journey. It invites us to reflect on key themes from the Mass readings and consider how they apply to our lives.
  • Unity in Faith: The first reading shows the early Church dealing with disagreements. It reminds us that unity in faith requires listening and compromise.
  • Guidance of the Holy Spirit: The Holy Spirit helps guide the decisions of the apostles in Acts 15:28. We see how the Holy Spirit still guides the Church today.
  • New Jerusalem: The second reading describes the vision of the New Jerusalem. It represents the hope and promise of a future with God.
  • God’s Presence: In Revelation 21:22-23, we learn there is no need for a temple because God’s presence is everywhere. This shows us that God is always with us.
  • Obedience to Jesus: The Gospel speaks about keeping Jesus’ word as a sign of love. Obeying Jesus’ teachings brings us closer to Him.
  • Gift of Peace: Jesus promises peace in John 14:27. This peace is different from what the world offers and calms our hearts.
These themes highlight important lessons for our faith journey. The 6th Sunday of Easter Year C encourages us to seek unity, listen to the Holy Spirit, and embrace the peace Jesus gives us. (https://young-catholics.com/3557/6th-sunday-of-easter-year-c/ )

Palm Sunday - Year C - April 13, 2025

 Palm Sunday Year C (Passion Sunday) marks the beginning of Holy Week. It is a day when we remember Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem and the events leading to His Passion.

  • Jesus as King: Jesus enters Jerusalem on a donkey, fulfilling the prophecy of a humble king. The people welcome Him with shouts of joy, recognizing His kingship.
  • Obedience to God’s Will: In Philippians, Paul writes about Jesus humbling Himself and becoming obedient to death. This shows Jesus’ commitment to God’s plan.
  • Suffering Servant: The reading from Isaiah describes a servant who suffers and does not turn away from insults. This points to Jesus’ suffering and His acceptance of it.
  • Betrayal and Loyalty: The Gospel of Luke recounts Judas’ betrayal and Peter’s denial. These stories remind us of human weakness and the importance of loyalty to Jesus.
  • The Passion of Christ: The Gospel reading details Jesus’ arrest, trial, crucifixion, and death. It highlights the suffering He endured for our salvation.
  • Salvation Through Jesus: Philippians speaks of Jesus being exalted by God and given the name above all names. This shows that through His suffering and resurrection, Jesus offers salvation to all.

Palm Sunday Year C (Passion Sunday) invites us to reflect on Jesus’ journey to the cross. It reminds us of His love, sacrifice, and the salvation He offers.

Song for the Procession:
1.      Himaya ug Pagdayeg
2.      Osanna sa Anak ni David
3.      
Hosanna sa Anak ni David (Parungao)
4.      Krus ng Ating Kaligtasan (Bautista)
5.      Hosanna to the Son of David (Schutte)
6.      Let Heaven Rejoice (Dufford) “Let children proclaim to every land, ‘Hosanna to our King!’
 
At the Procession with Palms - Gospel Lk 19:28-40
Jesus proceeded on his journey up to Jerusalem.
As he drew near to Bethphage and Bethany
at the place called the Mount of Olives,
he sent two of his disciples.
He said, “Go into the village opposite you,
and as you enter it you will find a colt tethered
on which no one has ever sat.
Untie it and bring it here.
And if anyone should ask you,
‘Why are you untying it?’
you will answer,
‘The Master has need of it.’”
So those who had been sent went off
and found everything just as he had told them.
And as they were untying the colt, its owners said to them,
“Why are you untying this colt?”
They answered,
“The Master has need of it.”
So they brought it to Jesus,
threw their cloaks over the colt,
and helped Jesus to mount.
As he rode along,
the people were spreading their cloaks on the road;
and now as he was approaching the slope of the Mount of Olives,
the whole multitude of his disciples
began to praise God aloud with joy
for all the mighty deeds they had seen.
They proclaimed:
            “Blessed is the king who comes
                        in the name of the Lord.
            Peace in heaven
                        and glory in the highest.”
Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to him,
“Teacher, rebuke your disciples.”
He said in reply,
“I tell you, if they keep silent,
the stones will cry out!”
 
At the Mass – First Reading Is 50:4-7
The Lord GOD has given me
            a well-trained tongue,
that I might know how to speak to the weary
            a word that will rouse them.
Morning after morning
            he opens my ear that I may hear;
and I have not rebelled,
            have not turned back.
I gave my back to those who beat me,
            my cheeks to those who plucked my beard;
my face I did not shield
            from buffets and spitting.
 
The Lord GOD is my help,
            therefore I am not disgraced;
I have set my face like flint,
            knowing that I shall not be put to shame.
 
Responsorial Psalm Ps 22:8-9, 17-18, 19-20, 23-24.
R (2a)  My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?
All who see me scoff at me;
            they mock me with parted lips, they wag their heads:
“He relied on the LORD; let him deliver him,
            let him rescue him, if he loves him.”
R My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?
Indeed, many dogs surround me,
            a pack of evildoers closes in upon me;
They have pierced my hands and my feet;
            I can count all my bones.
R My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?
They divide my garments among them,
            and for my vesture they cast lots.
But you, O LORD, be not far from me;
            O my help, hasten to aid me.
R My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?
I will proclaim your name to my brethren;
            in the midst of the assembly I will praise you:
“You who fear the LORD, praise him;
            all you descendants of Jacob, give glory to him;
            revere him, all you descendants of Israel!”
R My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?
 
Second Reading Phil 2:6-11
Christ Jesus, though he was in the form of God,
            did not regard equality with God
            something to be grasped.
Rather, he emptied himself,
            taking the form of a slave,
            coming in human likeness;
            and found human in appearance,
            he humbled himself,
            becoming obedient to the point of death,
            even death on a cross.
Because of this, God greatly exalted him
            and bestowed on him the name
            which is above every name,
            that at the name of Jesus
            every knee should bend,
            of those in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
            and every tongue confess that
            Jesus Christ is Lord,
            to the glory of God the Father.
 
Verse Before the Gospel Phil 2:8-9
Christ became obedient to the point of death,
even death on a cross.
because of this, God greatly exalted him
and bestowed on him the name which is above every name.
 
Gospel              Luke 22:14—23:56
When the hour came,
Jesus took his place at table with the apostles.
He said to them,
“I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer,
for, I tell you, I shall not eat it again
until there is fulfillment in the kingdom of God.”
Then he took a cup, gave thanks, and said,
“Take this and share it among yourselves;
for I tell you that from this time on
I shall not drink of the fruit of the vine
until the kingdom of God comes.”
Then he took the bread, said the blessing,
broke it, and gave it to them, saying,
“This is my body, which will be given for you;
do this in memory of me.”
And likewise the cup after they had eaten, saying,
“This cup is the new covenant in my blood,
which will be shed for you.
 
“And yet behold, the hand of the one who is to betray me
is with me on the table;
for the Son of Man indeed goes as it has been determined;
but woe to that man by whom he is betrayed.”
And they began to debate among themselves
who among them would do such a deed.
 
Then an argument broke out among them
about which of them should be regarded as the greatest.
He said to them,
“The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them
and those in authority over them are addressed as ‘Benefactors’;
but among you it shall not be so.
Rather, let the greatest among you be as the youngest,
and the leader as the servant.
For who is greater:
the one seated at table or the one who serves?
Is it not the one seated at table?
I am among you as the one who serves.
It is you who have stood by me in my trials;
and I confer a kingdom on you,
just as my Father has conferred one on me,
that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom;
and you will sit on thrones
judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
 
“Simon, Simon, behold Satan has demanded
to sift all of you like wheat,
but I have prayed that your own faith may not fail;
and once you have turned back,
you must strengthen your brothers.”
He said to him,
“Lord, I am prepared to go to prison and to die with you.”
But he replied,
“I tell you, Peter, before the cock crows this day,
you will deny three times that you know me.”
 
He said to them,
“When I sent you forth without a money bag or a sack or sandals,
were you in need of anything?”
“No, nothing, “ they replied.
He said to them,
“But now one who has a money bag should take it,
and likewise a sack,
and one who does not have a sword
should sell his cloak and buy one.
For I tell you that this Scripture must be fulfilled in me,
namely, He was counted among the wicked;
and indeed what is written about me is coming to fulfillment.”
Then they said,
“Lord, look, there are two swords here.”
But he replied, “It is enough!”
 
Then going out, he went, as was his custom, to the Mount of Olives,
and the disciples followed him.
When he arrived at the place he said to them,
“Pray that you may not undergo the test.”
After withdrawing about a stone’s throw from them and kneeling,
he prayed, saying, “Father, if you are willing,
take this cup away from me;
still, not my will but yours be done.”
And to strengthen him an angel from heaven appeared to him.
He was in such agony and he prayed so fervently
that his sweat became like drops of blood
falling on the ground.
When he rose from prayer and returned to his disciples,
he found them sleeping from grief.
He said to them, “Why are you sleeping?
Get up and pray that you may not undergo the test.”
 
While he was still speaking, a crowd approached
and in front was one of the Twelve, a man named Judas.
He went up to Jesus to kiss him.
Jesus said to him,
“Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?”
His disciples realized what was about to happen, and they asked,
“Lord, shall we strike with a sword?”
And one of them struck the high priest’s servant
and cut off his right ear.
But Jesus said in reply,
“Stop, no more of this!”
Then he touched the servant’s ear and healed him.
And Jesus said to the chief priests and temple guards
and elders who had come for him,
“Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs?
Day after day I was with you in the temple area,
and you did not seize me;
but this is your hour, the time for the power of darkness.”
 
After arresting him they led him away
and took him into the house of the high priest;
Peter was following at a distance.
They lit a fire in the middle of the courtyard and sat around it,
and Peter sat down with them.
When a maid saw him seated in the light,
she looked intently at him and said,
“This man too was with him.”
But he denied it saying,
“Woman, I do not know him.”
A short while later someone else saw him and said,
“You too are one of them”;
but Peter answered, “My friend, I am not.”
About an hour later, still another insisted,
“Assuredly, this man too was with him,
for he also is a Galilean.”
But Peter said,
“My friend, I do not know what you are talking about.”
Just as he was saying this, the cock crowed,
and the Lord turned and looked at Peter;
and Peter remembered the word of the Lord,
how he had said to him,
“Before the cock crows today, you will deny me three times.”
He went out and began to weep bitterly.
The men who held Jesus in custody were ridiculing and beating him.
They blindfolded him and questioned him, saying,
“Prophesy!  Who is it that struck you?”
And they reviled him in saying many other things against him.
 
When day came the council of elders of the people met,
both chief priests and scribes,
and they brought him before their Sanhedrin.
They said, “If you are the Christ, tell us, “
but he replied to them, “If I tell you, you will not believe,
and if I question, you will not respond.
But from this time on the Son of Man will be seated
at the right hand of the power of God.”
They all asked, “Are you then the Son of God?”
He replied to them, “You say that I am.”
Then they said, “What further need have we for testimony?
We have heard it from his own mouth.”
 
Then the whole assembly of them arose and brought him before Pilate.
They brought charges against him, saying,
“We found this man misleading our people;
he opposes the payment of taxes to Caesar
and maintains that he is the Christ, a king.”
Pilate asked him, “Are you the king of the Jews?”
He said to him in reply, “You say so.”
Pilate then addressed the chief priests and the crowds,
“I find this man not guilty.”
But they were adamant and said,
“He is inciting the people with his teaching throughout all Judea,
from Galilee where he began even to here.”
 
On hearing this Pilate asked if the man was a Galilean;
and upon learning that he was under Herod’s jurisdiction,
he sent him to Herod who was in Jerusalem at that time.
Herod was very glad to see Jesus;
he had been wanting to see him for a long time,
for he had heard about him
and had been hoping to see him perform some sign.
He questioned him at length,
but he gave him no answer.
The chief priests and scribes, meanwhile,
stood by accusing him harshly.
Herod and his soldiers treated him contemptuously and mocked him,
and after clothing him in resplendent garb,
he sent him back to Pilate.
Herod and Pilate became friends that very day,
even though they had been enemies formerly.
Pilate then summoned the chief priests, the rulers, and the people
and said to them, “You brought this man to me
and accused him of inciting the people to revolt.
I have conducted my investigation in your presence
and have not found this man guilty
of the charges you have brought against him,
nor did Herod, for he sent him back to us.
So no capital crime has been committed by him.
Therefore I shall have him flogged and then release him.”
 
But all together they shouted out,
“Away with this man!
Release Barabbas to us.”
— Now Barabbas had been imprisoned for a rebellion
that had taken place in the city and for murder. —
Again Pilate addressed them, still wishing to release Jesus,
but they continued their shouting,
“Crucify him!  Crucify him!”
Pilate addressed them a third time,
“What evil has this man done?
I found him guilty of no capital crime.
Therefore I shall have him flogged and then release him.”
With loud shouts, however,
they persisted in calling for his crucifixion,
and their voices prevailed.
The verdict of Pilate was that their demand should be granted.
So he released the man who had been imprisoned
for rebellion and murder, for whom they asked,
and he handed Jesus over to them to deal with as they wished.
 
As they led him away
they took hold of a certain Simon, a Cyrenian,
who was coming in from the country;
and after laying the cross on him,
they made him carry it behind Jesus.
A large crowd of people followed Jesus,
including many women who mourned and lamented him.
Jesus turned to them and said,
“Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me;
weep instead for yourselves and for your children
for indeed, the days are coming when people will say,
‘Blessed are the barren,
the wombs that never bore
and the breasts that never nursed.’
At that time people will say to the mountains,
‘Fall upon us!’
and to the hills, ‘Cover us!’
for if these things are done when the wood is green
what will happen when it is dry?”
Now two others, both criminals,
were led away with him to be executed.
 
When they came to the place called the Skull,
they crucified him and the criminals there,
one on his right, the other on his left.
Then Jesus said,
“Father, forgive them, they know not what they do.”
They divided his garments by casting lots.
The people stood by and watched;
the rulers, meanwhile, sneered at him and said,
“He saved others, let him save himself
if he is the chosen one, the Christ of God.”
Even the soldiers jeered at him.
As they approached to offer him wine they called out,
“If you are King of the Jews, save yourself.”
Above him there was an inscription that read,
“This is the King of the Jews.”
 
Now one of the criminals hanging there reviled Jesus, saying,
“Are you not the Christ?
Save yourself and us.”
The other, however, rebuking him, said in reply,
“Have you no fear of God,
for you are subject to the same condemnation?
And indeed, we have been condemned justly,
for the sentence we received corresponds to our crimes,
but this man has done nothing criminal.”
Then he said,
“Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.”
He replied to him,
“Amen, I say to you,
today you will be with me in Paradise.”
 
It was now about noon and darkness came over the whole land
until three in the afternoon
because of an eclipse of the sun.
Then the veil of the temple was torn down the middle.
Jesus cried out in a loud voice,
“Father, into your hands I commend my spirit”;
and when he had said this he breathed his last.
 
Here all kneel and pause for a short time.
 
The centurion who witnessed what had happened glorified God and said,
“This man was innocent beyond doubt.”
When all the people who had gathered for this spectacle saw what had happened,
they returned home beating their breasts;
but all his acquaintances stood at a distance,
including the women who had followed him from Galilee
and saw these events.
Now there was a virtuous and righteous man named Joseph who,
though he was a member of the council,
had not consented to their plan of action.
He came from the Jewish town of Arimathea
and was awaiting the kingdom of God.
He went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.
After he had taken the body down,
he wrapped it in a linen cloth
and laid him in a rock-hewn tomb
in which no one had yet been buried.
It was the day of preparation,
and the sabbath was about to begin.
The women who had come from Galilee with him followed behind,
and when they had seen the tomb
and the way in which his body was laid in it,
they returned and prepared spices and perfumed oils.
Then they rested on the sabbath according to the commandment.
 
Or
Lk 23:1-49
 
The elders of the people, chief priests and scribes,
arose and brought Jesus before Pilate.
They brought charges against him, saying,
“We found this man misleading our people;
he opposes the payment of taxes to Caesar
and maintains that he is the Christ, a king.”
Pilate asked him, “Are you the king of the Jews?”
He said to him in reply, “You say so.”
