Sunday Mass Readings นิยาย & เรื่องราว

“Love, take this ring as a sign of my love and fidelity. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.” saad ko habang sinusot sa daliri niya ang sing sing at ng maisuot ko sakaniya ito ay marahang nagpalakpakan ang lahat. “Let us pray. Almighty God, Father of all, bless Franlester Richmond and Maveline Gulliermo and pour out upon them the Spirit of your love. May their marriage be a source of joy, may it be faithful and fruitful, and may it bring them closer to You every day of their lives. Amen. And now, you may kiss your bride” ani father at dito na lumapad ang ngiti ng lahat, maging ako.

Naipatong niya rin ang kamay nito sa nakatukod kong kamay sa lababo. “Better hurry up, mommy, the mass will start in an hour,” wika nito tsaka hinawakan ang ulo ko at hinalikan iyon bago tuluyang umalis. I stunned. What the heck just happened? Hindi na bago sa amin ang pagsisimba tuwing linggo, kung mga Sierra lang din naman ang kasama mo, hinding-hindi nila ipagpapaliban ang Sunday mass. They never missed a sunday mass even though their schedule is full—especially the doctors in the family. For them, it is also a family day.

"Dear Lord. Good morning. We are here infront of you. Giving thanks for we are still alive and andito kami ngayon upang pag-usapan ang tungkol sa paparating na event namin. We are needing your help upang makayanan namin ang task na ito. Nagpapasalamat kami dahil binigyan Niyo po kami ng buhay, pamilya, at kaibigan. Sana ay gabayan niyo po kami. Ang lahat ng ito ay pinapasalamatan at inaalay namin sa Iyo Ama. Amen." "In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Amen." Nagsiupuan ang lahat pagkatapus naming magpray. Hays! Salamat naman at natapus ko rin ng hindi ako nasasablay. At tiyaka hindi rin ako nabulol. Thank you, Lord. "So, our agenda for this meeting ay...,” habang sinusul

LIVE SELLING That Sunday morning ay maaga kaming nagising lahat. There's a free mass na ginaganap sa isang chapel ng farm and also may samba rin na pang alas diyes sa may gymnasium nila. The place doesn't only operate for leisure but also they respect sabbath day. "Mauna ako sa chapel para sa 6 AM mass," saad ni Paula. "Sama ako." - Veniz. "Me too. Wait for me! - Paula.

Nang magsalita na ang Reverent natahimik na ako kakaisip at nakinig. "Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today in the presence of God and these witnesses to join Maria and Andre in holy matrimony. Marriage is a sacred covenant, a lifelong commitment of love and support. Let us begin this joyous celebration with a prayer. Heavenly Father, we come before you on this special day, asking for your blessings upon Maria and Andre. May their union be filled with love, grace, and divine guidance. Grant them strength and wisdom to build a strong foundation for their marriage. Amen.

Nagsisimula ang 2nd mass ng alas-7 ng umaga at ang 3rd mass naman ay alas-9 ng umaga. “Weh?” Gulantang pa rin si Ali. Madalas siyang magsimba sa mga timeslots na ‘yun. Siya pa ang rector ng misa. Sabagay, hindi rin niya nahahalata dahil nasa taas ang choir at band. “Ganda ng boses, kala mo hindi makabasag pinggan,” bulong ni Leighton habang nagtitiklado. “Excuse me?” asik ni Ali. Susugurin na niya sana si Leighton nang pinigilan siya ni JC.

ANGELO LINGO ng umaga nang gisingin ako ni Abel sa aking pagkakatulog. Alas tres na pala ng madaling araw at alas-sais naman ang unang misa sa San Sebastian. Bilang mga sakristan, at dahil kakaunti lang kami ay nagririlyebo kami sa bawat misa na magaganap. Hanggang tatlo lang ang misa sa San Sebastian, una ay alas sais hanggang alas syete, alas syete y media hanggang alas otso y media, at alas nuwebe hanggang alas diyes.

Minsan Luis, bagay talagang mag-pari ka na lang. Gwapo nga pero nirerespeto ng mga kababaihan. Napasign of the cross na nga kami sa pangunguna ni Luis. Napapikit ako at taimtim na pinapakingan ang dasal. “Father, you have made the bond of marriage a holy mystery, a symbol of Christ's love for his Church. Hear our prayers for Sean and Zhia. With faith in you and in each other they pledge their love today. May their lives always bear witness to the reality of that love. We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.” Thank you Luis. Halos parang binully na naman siya ni Elaine. Narinig ko,

sambit ni pastor. Maya maya pa ay nag simula na ang reading, “reading from the Apostle Paul, The first letter to the Corinthians, Chapter 13, verses 4 through 7: Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Father, as and pledge themselves to each other, help them and bless them that their love may be pure, and their vows may be true. Through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.”

ani Enzo habang umiinom ng coke in can. "Wala eh. Nasa malayo ka. Kami naman hindi rin palagi nagkakasama - sama kahit sabihin pang nasa iisang university lang naman dahil iba't - iba ang schedule namin. Sa Sunday mass naman ay hindi na rin kami nagkakasabay - sabay ng mass na inaattendan."
