Sunday Psalm #285
January 28, 2018
Praise the Lord, who heals the brokenhearted Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time (B) February 4, 2018 The English psalm settings are by Tinnah M. dela Rosa and Joey Delos Santos while the Filipino setting is by Dennis N. Marasigan. In the psalm refrain you call the assembly to praise God for healing the brokenhearted. In the verses you expand on the ways God does this healing. As part of your preparation try putting names and faces on these ways. In other words, what have you seen God rebuild? Whom have you seen God regather? Whom do you watch God sustain? (Cf. Living Liturgy 2012, p. 51) To download the music sheet with a higher resolution, please click here.

Sunday Psalm #284
January 21, 2018
If today you hear his voice Fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time (B) January 28, 2018 The English psalm settings are by Tinnah M. dela Rosa and Patrick John M. Fernandez while the Filipino setting is by Dennis N. Marasigan. Your leading of this psalm needs to come from a heart that knows it struggles to hear and be faithful to the voice of God. Spend some time this week examining where in your life you struggle with those "voices" that compete with Christian discipleship. Is it the voice of consumerism? Of the pressure to conform? Of timidity in the face of a situation that needs to be confronted? Reflect on why these voices are attractive, and ask for the grace to hear and respond instead to the voice of Christ. (Cf.

Sunday Psalm #283
January 14, 2018
The Lord is king
Feast of the Santo Niño (Philippine Church)
January 21, 2018
The English psalm setting for the Feast of the Santo Niño is an original composition by Tinnah M. dela Rosa while the Filipino settings are by Tinnah M. dela Rosa, Dennis N. Marasigan, and Christian Yanez.
This coming Sunday, we are fortunate to celebrate, once again, the Feast of the Sto. Niño. This devotion, which has its roots in the beginning of the Christianization of our country, is also one of the main features of our popular religiosity.
If our devotion to the Sto. Niño is genuine, it must not stop at placing his image in our family altar, or carrying it wherever we go. Our devotion to the Child Jesus must find its practical manifestation in our concern for the total welfare of the millions of children throughout the world and especially for those who are victimized in so many ways. Jesus loved children and showed his love and esteem for them in very practical ways, as we learn from today’ s Gospel passage. In this Eucharist let us renew our commitment to do likewise. (Cf. Euchalette, January 21, 2018)
