Christmas Eve and Christmas Day (Mass during the day) December 24-25, 2024

Merry Christmas po sa lahat… Namamasko po 😊
 
24 December
Christmas Eve Mass
 
  • First Reading – Isaiah 62:11-12: The Lord announces to the world: Zion’s savior arrives with reward. His people will be known as holy and redeemed, and Zion will be a cherished, never-forsaken city.
  • Responsorial Psalm – Psalm 97: The Lord reigns as king, bringing joy to the earth and islands. His justice shines from the heavens, offering light and gladness to the righteous who praise His holy name.
  • Second Reading – Titus 3:4-7: God’s kindness and love manifested in our salvation, not by our deeds but through His mercy. He renews us with the Holy Spirit, justifying us by grace for eternal life.
  • Gospel – Luke 2:15-20: After the angels’ departure, the shepherds hurried to Bethlehem, finding Jesus in the manger with Mary and Joseph. They shared the angelic message about the child, amazing all listeners. Mary pondered these events in her heart. The shepherds returned, praising God for the truth of the wondrous news they had witnessed.

Wednesday, 25 December
Mass during the Day
For your convenience, for the most part, I just fixed the dates and revised some details. This is almost the same as in previous years.
Important Ideas: God the Father and God the Son; the Word of God and the Son of God is/are one and the same
 
  • First Reading – Isaiah 52:7-10: The herald of good news brings peace and salvation, announcing to Zion, “Your God is King!” Sentinels cry out joyfully, witnessing the Lord’s restoration of Zion, and Jerusalem rejoices in God’s comforting redemption.
  • Responsorial Psalm – Psalm 98: A new song celebrates the Lord’s marvelous actions and victory. His salvation and justice are revealed to all nations, demonstrating His faithfulness to Israel and the world.
  • Second Reading – Hebrews 1:1-6: God, who once spoke through prophets, now speaks through His Son, the heir of all and creator of the universe, who purifies from sins and is exalted above the angels.
  • Gospel – John 1:1-18 or John 1:1-5, 9-14: In the beginning, the Word was with God and was God. Through Him, all things were made, and He brought life and light to humanity. John the Baptist testified about this light. The true light, Jesus, entered the world He created, unrecognized by many. The Word became flesh, revealing God’s glory, full of grace and truth, and through Jesus, grace and truth were fully manifested.
