2nd Sunday of Lent
Reminders
1. Walang Gloria in Excelsis Deo. Holy Thursday na ulit maririnig ang Gloria.
Magfa-fasting tayo from the mirth of the angels when they sang Glory to God in
the highest.
2. Walang Alleluia.
3. Walang flowers sa altar.
4. Turn down the volume. Minimize the musical instruments to be used. Musical
instruments during Lent should give only the bare minimum, or just the
necessary support to the singing. Sustenance lang. Baka nga mas maganda pa ang
kalabasan kung mag-a capella tayo. Kailangan maramdaman and ma-realize ng mga
taong assembled that this season is very distinct from other liturgical
seasons, most especially Easter, and one way of doing that is ibang style ng
ating pagiging liturgical music leader.
5. Instrumental solos are bawal kapag Lent. When movement of people ends (such
as in the processional songs in entrance, preparation of the gifts, communion),
immediately find an ending for the processional song. Halimbawa, sa communion,
wala na namang taong nakapila para tumanggap ng communion. Huwag nang kumanta.
Find an end. Tumahimik. Give the congregation an opportunity for silent
reflection. Yung ibang parishes nga, tinitigil talaga yung kanta, no matter
what part they are in, when movement of people ceases. Huwag nang maglagay ng
2nd communion song. People should be made aware to reflect so they won’t
chit-chat. Silence is far better during the season of Lent.
6. During service songs, if you can apply these to the tune of pasyon, the
congregation will surely notice, and thereby realize that this is a distinct
season altogether. For example, if you can sing si Kristo ay namatay into the
tune of pasyon...ginawa yan minsan sa parish. Also, you're encouraging
enculturation.

First Reading Gn 22:1-2, 9a, 10-13, 15-18
God put Abraham to the
test.
He called to him, “Abraham!”
“Here I am!” he replied.
Then God said:
“Take your son Isaac, your only one, whom you love,
and go to the land of Moriah.
There you shall offer him up as a holocaust
on a height that I will point out to you.”
When they came to the
place of which God had told him,
Abraham built an altar there and arranged the wood on it.
Then he reached out and took the knife to slaughter his son.
But the LORD’s messenger called to him from heaven,
“Abraham, Abraham!”
“Here I am!” he answered.
“Do not lay your hand on the boy,” said the messenger.
“Do not do the least thing to him.
I know now how devoted you are to God,
since you did not withhold from me your own beloved son.”
As Abraham looked about,
he spied a ram caught by its horns in the thicket.
So he went and took the ram
and offered it up as a holocaust in place of his son.
Again the LORD’s
messenger called to Abraham from heaven and said:
“I swear by myself, declares the LORD,
that because you acted as you did
in not withholding from me your beloved son,
I will bless you abundantly
and make your descendants as countless
as the stars of the sky and the sands of the seashore;
your descendants shall take possession
of the gates of their enemies,
and in your descendants all the nations of the earth
shall find blessing—
all this because you obeyed my command.”
Responsorial Psalm 116:10, 15, 16-17, 18-19
R. (116:9) I will walk
before the Lord, in the land of the living.
I
believed, even when I said,
“I am greatly afflicted.”
Precious in the eyes of the LORD
is the death of his faithful ones.
R. I will walk before the Lord, in the land of the living.
O LORD, I am your servant;
I am your servant, the son of your handmaid;
you have loosed my bonds.
To you will I offer sacrifice of thanksgiving,
and I will call upon the name of the LORD.
R. I will walk before the Lord, in the land of the living.
My vows to the LORD I will pay
in the presence of all his people,
In the courts of the house of the LORD,
in your midst, O Jerusalem.
R. I will walk before the Lord, in the land of the living.
Second Reading Rom 8:31b-34
Brothers and sisters:
If God is for us, who can be against us?
He who did not spare his own Son
but handed him over for us all,
how will he not also give us everything else along with him?
Who will bring a charge
against God’s chosen ones?
It is God who acquits us, who will condemn?
Christ Jesus it is who died—or, rather, was raised—
who also is at the right hand of God,
who indeed intercedes for us.

Gospel Mk 9:2-10
Jesus took Peter,
James, and John
and led them up a high mountain apart by themselves.
And he was transfigured before them,
and his clothes became dazzling white,
such as no fuller on earth could bleach them.
Then Elijah appeared to them along with Moses,
and they were conversing with Jesus.
Then Peter said to Jesus in reply,
“Rabbi, it is good that we are here!
Let us make three tents:
one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”
He hardly knew what to say, they were so terrified.
Then a cloud came, casting a shadow over them;
from the cloud came a voice,
“This is my beloved Son. Listen to him.”
Suddenly, looking around, they no longer saw anyone
but Jesus alone with them.
As they were coming
down from the mountain,
he charged them not to relate what they had seen to anyone,
except when the Son of Man had risen from the dead.
So they kept the matter to themselves,
questioning what rising from the dead meant.
