First Reading (Zephaniah 3: 14–18)
A reading from the book of Zephaniah.
Cry out with joy, O daughter of Zion; rejoice, O people of Israel! Sing joyfully with all your heart, daughter of Jerusalem! The Lord has lifted your sentence and has driven your enemies away. The Lord, the King of Israel is with you; do not fear any misfortune. On that day they will say to Jerusalem: Do not be afraid nor let your hands tremble, for the Lord your God is within you, Yahweh, saving warrior. He will jump for joy on seeing you, for he has revived his love. For you he will cry out with joy, as you do in the days of the Feast. I will drive away the evil I warned you about, and you will no longer be shamed.
Second Reading (Philippians 4: 4–7)
A reading from the letter of Saint Paul to the Philippians.
Brothers and sisters: Rejoice in the Lord always. I say it again: rejoice and may everyone experience your gentle and understanding heart. The Lord is near: do not be anxious about anything. In everything resort to prayer and supplication together with thanksgiving and bring your requests before God. Then the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will keep your hearts and minds in Jesus Christ.
Gospel (Luke 3: 10–18)
A reading from the holy Gospel according to Luke.
The people asked John, "What are we supposed to do?" John answered, "If you have two coats, give one to the person who has none; and if you have food, do the same." Even tax collectors came to be baptized and asked John, "Master, what should we do?" John replied to them, "Collect no more than your fixed rate." People serving as soldiers asked John as well, "What about us? What should we do?" And he answered, "Do not take anything by force or threaten the people by denouncing them falsely. Be content with your pay." The people were wondering about John's identity. "Could he be the Messiah?" Then John answered them, "I baptize you with water, but the one who is coming will do much more: he will baptize you with Holy Spirit and fire. As for me, I am not worthy to untie his sandal. He comes with a winnowing fan to clear his threshing floor and gather the grain into his barn. But the chaff he will burn with fire that never extinguishes." With these and many other words, John announced the Good News to the people.

Responsorial Psalm (Isaiah Chapter 12) (Verses 2-6)
ReplyDeleteThe response is: Cry out with joy and gladness: for among you is the great and Holy One of Israel.
He is the God of my salvation; in him I trust and am not afraid, the Lord is my strength: him I will praise, the one who saved me. You will draw water with joy from the very fountain of salvation.
Then you will say: "Praise to the Lord, break into songs of joy for him, proclaim his marvelous deeds among the nations and exalt his Name."
Sing to the Lord: wonders he has done let these be known all over the earth. Sing for joy, O people of Zion, for great in your midst is the Holy One of Israel.
The theme for the 3rd Sunday of Advent is to rejoice, for salvation is near.
ReplyDeleteIsaiah states in Chapter 35: 2-4: "Covered with flowers, the desert sings and shouts with joy, the magnificence of Carmel and Sharon. They, my people, see the glory of Yahweh, the majesty of our God. Give vigor to weary hands and strength to enfeebled knees. Say to those who are afraid: 'Have courage, do not fear. See, your God comes, demanding justice. He is the God who rewards, the God who comes to save you.'"
Priest: Father, at the height of our Advent walk, we relight the candle of hope and peace, and we light a candle of joy. Grant us the courage to experience joy in hope of the Savior's coming: joy in the face of sorrow, joy in the face of uncertainty. Amen.
The father of the chosen family will light the two purple candles and the rose candle of the Advent Wreath. During that time, the choir will sing, "O Come, O Come, Emmanuel"
This is a prayer led by the father or a male member of the family:
In times of loneliness, darkness and uncertainty — O come, Prince of joy and hope. In times of misunderstanding, anger and resentment — O come, Prince of Peace and Love. Amen.
This is a prayer led by the mother or a female member of the family:
O God, You have planned our salvation even before we were born and your faithfulness is true. You send your Son to suffer for our sake so that we may be saved from sin. We welcome Him, the Lord of Salvation. Amen.
This is a prayer led by one of the children:
Dear God, John is your messenger — the man who is to prepare the road for our Savior. Grant that as we travel the road he teaches, we too may be like him, messengers that can guide others to Your path of peace. Amen.
Priest: Heavenly Father, let love, respect and goodness reign in our hearts and never let the evil one and worldly desires snatch away our happiness and the reward of living forever with You. Instead, make us stand firm by Your word, faithful and loyal to Your instructions. Make us holy in every way and keep our whole being faultless at the coming of our Lord, Jesus Christ. Amen.
Plegarias de la corona de adviento
DeleteEl tercer tema por el tercer domingo de adviento es alegrar, desde la salvación está cerca. Las plegarias de la corona de adviento se hacen después la canción de entrada pero antes el saludo.
Sacerdote: Padre, a la altura de nuestra peregrinación de adviento, encendemos de nuevo las candelas de esperanza y paz, y encendemos una candela de alegría. Otórganos el coraje para experimentar la alegría en esperanza de la llegada del Salvador: alegría en la presencia de dolor, y la alegría en la presencia de la incertidumbre. Amén.
El padre de la familia escogida encenderá dos candelas moradas y encenderá la candela rosa. Mientras el padre encienda las candelas, el coro cantará “Venga, venga, Emmanuel”
• Plegaria del padre: En los momentos de la soledad, oscuridad, e incertidumbre, venga, príncipe de la alegría y la esperanza. En los momentos de la malinterpretación, enojo, y resentimiento, venga, príncipe de la paz y el amor. Amén.
• Plegaria de la madre: Dios, has planeado nuestra salvación aun antes nacíamos y tu fidelidad es verdadera. Enviaste tu hijo para sufrir de tu bien así que podemos ser salvado del pecado. Le saludamos, el Señor de la Salvación. Amén.
• Plegaria del niño: Querido Señor, Juan es tu mensajero, el hombre que prepara la calle para nuestro Salvador. Concede que durante viajamos la calle en que nos enseña, también podemos ser como él, mensajeros que pueden ayudar a los demás a tu camino de la paz. Amén.
Sacerdote: Padre del Cielo, permite al amor, respeto, y bondad para regir en nuestros corazones y nunca permite el malvado y los deseos mundiales sacan de lejos nuestra felicidad y la recompensa de vivir contigo. En lugar de esto, haznos fuertes por tu noticia, fiel y leal a tus instrucciones. Haznos santos en todas maneras y mantén nuestro ser entero, sin falta a la llegada de nuestro Señor, Jesucristo. Amén.
¡Oye! ¡Felicidades! Ahora celebramos el tercer domingo de adviento con Sean y su familia. Además, el primer semestre se acabó. Podemos celebrar la Navidad y el Año Nuevo.
DeleteEspera. La canción no es la específica canción en que cantamos. Es otra canción, ¿no?
DeleteCorrecto. La canción es diferente que la que es preceptiva.
DeleteA mí me gusta la lectura de Sean y su madre. Su padre pronunció incorrectamente algunas palabras, pero era un rendimiento sólido.
DeleteEs dramático cuando Sean hizo algunas pausas en la lectura, ¿no?
DeleteEstoy de acuerdo. Es muy dramática con las pausas.
DeleteLa candela rosa se prende. Es interesante que hay solamente una candela rosa que significa la alegría.

DeletePrimera Lectura (Sofonías 3: 14-18)
ReplyDeleteUna lectura del libro de Sofonías.
¡Grita de alegría, hija de Sión! ¡Aclama, Israel! ¡Alégrate y regocíjate de todo corazón, hija de Jerusalén! El Señor ha retirado las sentencias que pesaban sobre ti y ha expulsado a tus enemigos. El Rey de Israel, el Señor, está en medio de ti: ya no temerás ningún mal. Aquel día, se dirá a Jerusalén: ¡No temas, Sión, que no desfallezcan tus manos! ¡El Señor, tu Dios, está en medio de ti, es un guerrero victorioso! Él exulta de alegría a causa de ti, te renueva con su amor y lanza por ti gritos de alegría, como en los días de fiesta. Yo aparté de ti la desgracia, para que no cargues más con el oprobio.
Segunda Lectura (Filipenses 4: 4-7)
Una lectura de la carta de San Pablo a los Filipenses.
Alégrense siempre en el Señor. Vuelvo a insistir, alégrense. Que la bondad de ustedes sea conocida por todos los hombres. El Señor está cerca. No se angustien por nada, y en cualquier circunstancia, recurran a la oración y a la súplica, acompañadas de acción de gracias, para presentar sus peticiones a Dios. Entonces la paz de Dios, que supera todo lo que podemos pensar, tomará bajo su cuidado los corazones y los pensamientos de ustedes en Cristo Jesús.
Evangelio (Lucas 3: 10-18)
Una lectura del Evangelio Santo según San Lucas.
La gente le preguntaba: “¿Qué debemos hacer entonces?” Él les respondía: “El que tenga dos túnicas, dé una al que no tiene; y el que tenga qué comer, haga otro tanto.” Algunos publicanos vinieron también a hacer bautizar y le preguntaron: “Maestro, ¿qué debemos hacer?” Él les respondió: “No exijan más de lo estipulado.” A su vez, unos soldados le preguntaron: “Y nosotros, ¿qué debemos hacer?” Juan les respondió: “No extorsionen a nadie, no hagan falsas denuncias y conténtense con su sueldo.” Como el pueblo estaba a la expectativa y todos se preguntaban si Juan no sería el Mesías, él tomó la palabra y les dijo: “Yo los bautizo con agua, pero viene uno que es más poderoso que yo, y yo ni siquiera soy digno de desatar la correa de sus sandalias; él los bautizará en el Espíritu Santo y en el fuego. Tiene en su mano la horquilla para limpiar su era y recoger el trigo en su granero. Pero consumirá la paja en el fuego inextinguible.” Y por medio de muchas otras exhortaciones, anunciaba al pueblo la Buena Noticia.
Salmo responsorial (Isaías 12: 2–6)
DeleteLa respuesta es: Grita con alegría y felicidad; entre ustedes es el gran santo de Israel.
• ¡Vean cómo es él, el Dios que me salva! En él confío y no tengo más miedo, pues Yahvé es mi fuerza y mi canción, él ha sido mi salvación. Y ustedes sacarán agua con alegría de las vertientes de la salvación.
• Ustedes dirán ese día: ¡Denle las gracias a Yahvé, vitoreen su Nombre! Publiquen entre los pueblos sus hazañas, celébrenlo, pues su Nombre es sublime.
• ¡Canten a Yahvé, pues hizo maravillas que ahora son famosas en toda la tierra! ¡Grita de contento y de alegría, oh Sion, porque grande es, en medio de ti, el Santo de Israel!”
The good we do we give credit to ourselves; the evil we commit we blame easily on others. We ask now the Lord to forgive us.

ReplyDeleteIt is truly right and just, our duty and our salvation, always and everywhere to give you thanks, Lord, holy Father, almighty and eternal God, through Christ our Lord. For he assumed at his first coming the lowliness of human flesh, and so fulfilled the design you formed long ago, and opened for us the way to eternal salvation, that when he comes again in glory and majesty and all is at last made manifest, we who watch for that day may inherit the great promise in which now we dare to hope. And so, with Angels and Archangels, with Thrones and Dominions, and with all the hosts and Powers of heaven, we sing the hymn of your glory, as without end we acclaim...

The Mass has ended, and you are sent. Therefore, may the Lord go with you wherever you go. Thanks be to God.
