FIRST BLOG ENTRY

WELCOME to ourparishpriest.blogspot.com!

hi! after almost four years in holy family parish, bgy. kapitolyo, pasig, i am moving on to another priestly experience, another adventure in serving the Lord Jesus Christ.

in my previous parish, we embarked on a quest to bring the Gospel and the Church closer to people who are adept with the world of the internet.  we started a website that aimed to connect us with parishioners who are temporarily or permanently away from their original parish and yet are still longing to hear some news, to get some information, to be nourished with the spiritual food that only a caring and wonderful Christian community can supply.  

the website was a successful venture.  young and old, people from near and far claim they benefit from it.  now, that i am following the lead of the Holy Spirit in another ministry, i feel the need to start my own blog so that i can continue to share the fruits of prayer and service with others. 

welcome to this new blog, dedicated to all my friends and family, to priests everywhere and to all seekers of the truth and peace that only Jesus can bring to the human heart. 

i offer this blog space to Jesus, the Chief Shepherd of souls and through him to the Father of mercy in the Holy Spirit, who makes the Trinity present in our midst.  blessed be God forever!

FIRST DAY: DECEMBER 16   (from the book: Where is the Child?by Fr. R. Marcos (Makati: StPauls);  pls responsibly acknowledge source when using publicly)   fr tam nguyen's photo First Reading: Isaiah 56:1-3, 6-8   Thus says the Lord: Observe what is right, do what is just, for my salvation is about to come, my justice, about to be revealed.   Hay is the one who does this, whoever holds fast to it: Keeping the sabbath without profaning it, keeping one’s hand from doing any evil. The foreigner joined to the Lord should not say, “The Lord will surely exclude me from his people”; Nor should the eunuch say, “See, I am a dry tree.” And foreigners who join themselves to the Lord, to minister to him, to love the name of the Lord, to become his servants—All who keep the sabbath without profaning it and hold fast to my covenant, them I will bring to my holy mountain and make them joyful in my house of prayer; their burnt offerings and their sacrifices will

Judah is a lion’s cub, you have grown up on prey, my son. He crouches, lies down like a lion, Like a lioness—who would dare rouse him? The scepter shall never depart from Judah, or the mace from between his feet, until tribute comes to him, and he receives the people’s obedience.”     A.             Short Background on the First Reading   1.
