Ang Mabuting Balita - Father Tony Palm Sunday - 04-01-2012


Procession with Palms: Mark 11:1-10
First reading: Isaiah 50:4-7
Responsorial Psalm: Psalm 22:8-9, 17-18, 19-20, 23-24 - My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?

Second Reading: Philippians 2:6-11

Verse before the Gospel: Philippians 2:8-9 - Christ became obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. Because of this God greatly exalted him and bestowed on him the name which is above every name.

Father Tony talks about the parodoxes or contradictions that surround those five days starting with the triumphant entry of Our Lord Jesus Christ in Jerusalem. About how the King of Kings and Lord of Lords rode an ass, a lowly beast. About how he was hailed, "Hosanna!" and then maligned, beaten, tortured, spat at and crucified on Good Friday. He also talks about how to connect our sufferings and trials with His Passion.

Ang Mabuting Balita - Third Sunday of Lent


Third Sunday of Lent
Lectionary: 29 or 28


Reading 1 Ex 20:1-17

In those days, God delivered all these commandments:
"I, the LORD, am your God,
who brought you out of the land of Egypt, that place of slavery.
You shall not have other gods besides me.
You shall not carve idols for yourselves
in the shape of anything in the sky above
or on the earth below or in the waters beneath the earth;
you shall not bow down before them or worship them.
For I, the LORD, your God, am a jealous God,
inflicting punishment for their fathers' wickedness
on the children of those who hate me,
down to the third and fourth generation;
but bestowing mercy down to the thousandth generation
on the children of those who love me and keep my commandments.

"You shall not take the name of the LORD, your God, in vain.
For the LORD will not leave unpunished
the one who takes his name in vain.

"Remember to keep holy the sabbath day.
Six days you may labor and do all your work,
but the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD, your God.
No work may be done then either by you, or your son or daughter,
or your male or female slave, or your beast,
or by the alien who lives with you.
In six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth,
the sea and all that is in them;
but on the seventh day he rested.
That is why the LORD has blessed the sabbath day and made it holy.

"Honor your father and your mother,
that you may have a long life in the land
which the LORD, your God, is giving you.
You shall not kill.
You shall not commit adultery.
You shall not steal.
You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
You shall not covet your neighbor's house.
You shall not covet your neighbor's wife,
nor his male or female slave, nor his ox or ass,
nor anything else that belongs to him."

Or Ex 20:1-3, 7-8, 12-17

In those days, God delivered all these commandments:
"I, the LORD am your God,
who brought you out of the land of Egypt, that place of slavery.
You shall not have other gods besides me.

"You shall not take the name of the LORD, your God, in vain.
For the LORD will not leave unpunished
the one who takes his name in vain.

"Remember to keep holy the sabbath day.
Honor your father and your mother,
that you may have a long life in the land
which the Lord, your God, is giving you.
You shall not kill.
You shall not commit adultery.
You shall not steal.
You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
You shall not covet your neighbor's house.
You shall not covet your neighbor's wife,
nor his male or female slave, nor his ox or ass,
nor anything else that belongs to him."

Responsorial Psalm Ps 19:8, 9, 10, 11

R. (John 6:68c)Lord, you have the words of everlasting life.
The law of the LORD is perfect,
refreshing the soul;
The decree of the LORD is trustworthy,
giving wisdom to the simple.
R. Lord, you have the words of everlasting life.
The precepts of the LORD are right,
rejoicing the heart;
the command of the LORD is clear,
enlightening the eye.
R. Lord, you have the words of everlasting life.
The fear of the LORD is pure,
enduring forever;
the ordinances of the LORD are true,
all of them just.
R. Lord, you have the words of everlasting life.
They are more precious than gold,
than a heap of purest gold;
sweeter also than syrup
or honey from the comb.
R. Lord, you have the words of everlasting life.

Reading 2 1 Cor 1:22-25

Brothers and sisters:
Jews demand signs and Greeks look for wisdom,
but we proclaim Christ crucified,
a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles,
but to those who are called, Jews and Greeks alike,
Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.
For the foolishness of God is wiser than human wisdom,
and the weakness of God is stronger than human strength.

Gospel Jn 2:13-25

Since the Passover of the Jews was near,
Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
He found in the temple area those who sold oxen, sheep, and doves,
as well as the money changers seated there.
He made a whip out of cords
and drove them all out of the temple area, with the sheep and oxen,
and spilled the coins of the money changers
and overturned their tables,
and to those who sold doves he said,
"Take these out of here,
and stop making my Father's house a marketplace."
His disciples recalled the words of Scripture,
Zeal for your house will consume me.
At this the Jews answered and said to him,
"What sign can you show us for doing this?"
Jesus answered and said to them,
"Destroy this temple and in three days I will raise it up."
The Jews said,
"This temple has been under construction for forty-six years,
and you will raise it up in three days?"
But he was speaking about the temple of his body.
Therefore, when he was raised from the dead,
his disciples remembered that he had said this,
and they came to believe the Scripture
and the word Jesus had spoken.

While he was in Jerusalem for the feast of Passover,
many began to believe in his name
when they saw the signs he was doing.
But Jesus would not trust himself to them because he knew them all,
and did not need anyone to testify about human nature.
He himself understood it well.

Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time - 02-05-2012

Gospel Reading: Mark 1:29-39

My apologies for this recording. I used my Samsung Galaxy Y (GT - S5360) and I placed it near the pew in front of us where there is a baby girl whose voice you'll hear almost throughout the recording. Since this was recorded on Pro-Life Sunday, let's all cut her some slack shall we? Let us think of the unborn who are defenseless. They are precious gifts from God.

Ang Mabuting Balita - Pentecost - 05312009

May God be praised for we are back online. I offer my sincerest apologies to all those who wondered what took so long for the sermons to be uploaded. I also apologize for not informing our readers the reason as to why the sermons came to an abrupt halt.

Last October the choir that I am singing with went to Fernbrook Gardens to sing at a wedding reception. Unfortunately, it was only while we were on our way home that I realized my carelessness. It seems that I lost my mp3 player/recorder when the people in charge of the venue started cleaning up while we were packing our equipment.

Now through the kindness of my fellow choir member I will be able to record the sermons and deliver them to you once again. However, there still remains the sound quality problem because the mp4 player (CD-R King) can only record using 32kbps WAV format.

If you wish to donate an mp3 recorder for the purpose of improving the quality of this podcast you can do so by sending me an email to tradcathjmj@gmail.com. You can also donate financially by clicking the paypal button on the upper-right-hand corner of this page. Or you can wire the money to my BPI Account No: 0019-0721-85.

Now for the sermon:

A guest priest delivers this week's sermon.

If You're Catholic, Then Help Me Out!

A number of abominable videos have appeared over YouTube and despite protests from a lot of people all over the world, the management has refused to pull out even just one of those blasphemous videos.

What really ticks me off though is their bias towards people of other faiths. I bet you a million bucks that the moment I post a video that pokes fun at Muslims or Muhammad my account will be suspended and my video taken out in a couple of days.

Let us once and for all stand up for our Catholic Faith and send a message to Google CEO Mr. Eric Schmidt that in the interest of fairness they should not allow videos that are offensive to Catholics (in fact, these videos are a violation of their posting guidelines) just as much as they should not allow videos that offend any race, creed and nationality.

The folks at America Needs Fatima is asking you to send an online petition to Google (who owns YouTube) by clicking here. If the link does not work then copy and paste this URL on the address bar of your favorite browser - http://www.americaneedsfatima.org/YT/

Are you just going to allow our Lord Jesus Christ to be humiliated and spat at by people who are doing this simply because they strongly believe that Catholics are wuzzies who don't care about their religion and that anyone can simply get away at insulting and making fun of Catholic beliefs and practices?

Jesus said that if you deny Him then He will deny you before His Father when the dreadful day of judgment comes. ACT NOW!

Stop the Culture of Death!

I was a little bit busy today checking my emails and I almost forgot to do something about my friend's email to me more than a week ago. That friend by the way is Jerwin Aguinaldo and he is currently the Chief Captain of the Apostles of Mary - Catholic Youth League of the Philippines. The email he sent was about the pending anti-life bills in congress and that we should do something about it. Just reading the latest news on the hearings at the Batasan on House Bill 5043 (Reproductive Health Bill) compelled me to forward his email to everyone on my distribution list. I was quite troubled by the statistics:
  • 105 are in favor;
  • 12 are in favor but have not signed;
  • 28 are neutral;
  • 93 are against.
From what I know, the bill needs 120 votes to get approved. Let us not make this happen. Jerwin has just started a signature campaign against these 'Death' bills. Please support life by contacting your congressman or senator and let them know what you think. Be vigilant and monitor the hearings at the batasan. You can also post a blog or let your 'friendsters' know by posting at their bulletin board. Or you can email Jerwin by clicking here to request for copies of the signature sheets. Remember, the faith that you once cherish and have taken for granted may soon be restricted and your freedoms curtailed when these bills are passed. Let us not copy the mistakes of Europe, China and the U.S. Stand up for the unborn! Stand up for God! Stand up for LIFE!

+JMJ+

Hi everyone!

Pax Christi!

I am pleased to announce that the world renowned and award winning choral group, the UE Chorale - will hold a FREE CONCERT on Wednesday, May 21, 7:30pm at the Our Lady Queen of Peace and Good Voyage Parish Church, Bgy. Queen´s Row West, Molino, Bacoor, Cavite.

Our very own Victor Ramirez (Jay to all who know him) will be one of the performers. He has been very active in our Parish for many years being a member of the Catholic Renewal Choir (heard Sundays 6:30pm), PREX and Coro dela Reina among others.

Their Choirmaster is no less than Mrs. Ana Tabita Abeleda-Piquero of the Philippine Madrigal Singers.

For further inquiries and for driving directions please contact the OLQPGVP church office +63 (46) 517-5912.

The University of the East Chorale Profile
taken from their website http://www.uechorale.com

The UE Chorale is the Official Choir of the University of the East. It was founded in June 1992 as the UE Glee Club consisting of students from the different colleges of the University. Apart from singing for official functions in the University, other activities of the UE Chorale includes participation in the MADZ Et. Al., a yearly festival hosted by the Philippine Madrigal Singers, performances in several Philippine government function and other worthy projects.

Since June 1999, the UE Chorale has trained under their conductor, Ms. Anna Tabita Abeleda-Piquero, a member of the Philippine Madrigal Singers. She instilled in them discipline, sense of commitment and love for their work, gearing towards musical excellence for world-class performances. After only six months of rigorous training, the UE Chorale won 2nd place in the 1st Concurso Coral de Ateneo (1999), 1st Place in the 28th National Music Competition for Young Artist (NAMCYA) in Regional Finals and Honorable mention in the Nationals.

In June 2003, the group fulfilled its vision of becoming an ambassador of goodwill through concerts and participation in international festivals with a three-month long European Tour visiting the cities of Germany, Austria, and Italy. There were several highlights in this First European Tour with the UE Chorale making its mark as one of the best Choirs in the world by qualifying and winning in two of the most prominent competitions in Europe. In the prestigious 40th International Chorwettbewerb in Spittal, Austria, the University of the East Chorale is the overall Second Place winner in the Polyphonic Art Song category of the International Choirs' Competition besting nine other countries - Belgium, Czechoslovakia, Germany, Hungary, Norway, Russia, Sweden, USA, and Austria. A group with its own individual charm and appeal, the UEC won the coveted Publikumspreis when it was voted by the public as the choir in the competition. Being the crowd favorite, the group was the only choir invited to the Office of the Mayor in Spittal an der Drau for a courtesy call.

Joing the ranks of internationally-acclaimed Filipino choirs, the UE Chorale competed in the prestigious 51st Guido d' Arezzo Concurso Polifonico in Arezzo, Italy where they won First Prize in the Competizione Straordinaria category, First Prize in the Nino Antonelli Special Prize category for its rendering of contemporary compositions joined by other eighteen participants from all over the world, and won Second Prize in the Polyphonic Category. By winning in several categories, the group became one of the only two choirs that qualified to vie for the Citta di Arezzo Grand Prize.

Locally, the University of the East Chorale was chosen as the Consumer's Choice Awardee for the Most Outstanding Chorale Group of 2003 and the Grand Prize winner in 2003 Himig ng Koro Chorale Competition.

For June to August of 2004, the UE Chorale again embarked on its Second European Tour visiting the countries of Italy and France. The group competed in an International Choral Competition in Gorizi, Italy and won First Prize in one of the categories and won the most coveted Publikumspreis Award.

In November 2005, the group was invited in different cities in Korea, joined choral festivals and performed in a series of concerts together with National Artist for Music and founder of Philippine Madrigal Singers, Professor Andrea O. Veneracion.

with these recent accomplishments, the University of the East Chorale is blazing a trail of its own, adding awards and accolades to its achievements and proving their mettle in the national and now, in the international choral arena.
