CHRISTMAS : THE FAITHFUL

O Come, all ye faithful!  And they do!






REFRESHMENTS AFTER MASS



Every year, Dolores Taitingfong makes hot, moist, fresh and delicious buñuelos dågo for us right after Mass.  What a treat!

CHRISTMAS : OUR SERVERS AND SCHOLA

What would we do without their faithful, dedicated service?  God bless you young men!

CHRISTMAS 2013


THE CHRISTMAS PROCLAMATION
Before Mass


THE ENTHRONEMENT OF THE CHRIST CHILD
Immediately following this, the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass

 
INCENSATION OF THE ALTAR
Imagine what the heavenly worship is like!


CHANTING THE GOSPEL
The Word of God was made flesh and dwells among us!


THE CONSECRATION
Et Verbum caro factum est.
And the Word was made flesh.

 
ECCE AGNUS DEI
Like St John the Baptist, we say, "Behold the Lamb of God!"


HOLY COMMUNION
He was born in Bethlehem, that is, "House of Bread"


VENERATION OF THE CHRIST CHILD
Venite, adoremus!
