The Holy Gospel According to St. Matthew and As Jesus Was Going Bulletin No.:122 333333333 Wednesday, March 20, 2019 GOD’S WORDS FOR TODAY (Mt. 20:17-28) The Holy Gospel according to St. Matthew And as Jesus was going up to Jerusalem, he took the twelve disciples aside, and on the way he said to them, "Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man will be delivered to the chief priests and scribes, and they will condemn him to death, and deliver him to the Gentiles to be mocked and scourged and crucified, and he will be raised on the third day." Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee came up to him, with her sons, and kneeling before him she asked him for something. And he said to her, "What do you want?" She said to him, "Command that these two sons of mine may sit, one at your right hand and one at your left, in your kingdom." But Jesus answered, "You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I am to drink?" They said to him, "We are able." He said to them, "You will drink my cup, but to sit at my right hand and at my left is not mine to grant, but it is for those for whom it has been prepared by my Father." And when the ten heard it, they were indignant at the two brothers. But Jesus called them to him and said, "You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great men exercise authority over them. It shall not be so among you; but whoever would be great among you must be your servant, and whoever would be first among you must be your slave; even as the Son of man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many." REFLECTION: An early church father summed up Jesus' teaching with the expression "to serve is to reign with Christ". We share in God’s reign by laying down our lives in humble service of one another as Jesus did for our sake. Are you ready to lay down your life and to serve others as Jesus did? PRAYER: Lord Jesus, make me a servant of love for your kingdom that I may seek to serve rather than be served. Amen. MISSIONVISION “Inspired by our faith in God, by our Catholic traditions and by the charism of St. John Baptist de La Salle educational innovator par excellence, we together and by association are committed to give quality human and Christian education to all building a society founded on equity and justice and on sustainable and inclusive development.” FROM THE OVCAR – GRADE SCHOOL COMMUNITY: From the Assistant Principal 1.

  • The Holy Gospel According to St. Matthew Jacob Was the Father of Joseph, the Husband of Mary
    Bulletin No.:121 333333333 Tuesday, March 19, 2019 GOD’S WORDS FOR TODAY (Mt. 1:16, 18-21,24) The Holy Gospel according to St. Matthew Jacob was the father of Joseph, the husband of Mary. Of her was born Jesus who is called the Christ. Now this is how the birth of Jesus Christ came about. When his mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, but before they lived together, she was found with child through the Holy Spirit. Joseph her husband, since he was a righteous man, yet unwilling to expose her to shame, decided to divorce her quietly. Such was his intention when, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary your wife into your home. For it is through the Holy Spirit that this child has been conceived in her. She will bear a son and you are to name him Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.” When Joseph awoke, he did as the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took his wife into his home. REFLECTION: Are you ready to put your trust in the Lord to give you his help and guidance in fulfilling your responsibilities? God gives strength and guidance to those who seek his help, especially when we face trials, doubts, fears, perplexing circumstances, and what seems like insurmountable problems and challenges in our personal lives. God our heavenly Father has not left us alone, but has given us his only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, to be our savior, teacher, lord, and healer.

  • 474 – Brother Benildo Feliciano, F.S.C
    Circular 474 December 2019 Brother Benildo Feliciano, F.S.C. “…May we always draw our life from you, and be filled with the sap of your grace and goodness…” 1937 – 2019 BROTHERS OF THE CHRISTIAN SCHOOLS General Council Rome, Italy Brothers of the Christian Schools Via Aurelia, 476 Rome, Italy www.lasalle.org Introduction The wise are more powerful than the strong, and the learned, than the mighty. (Proverbs 24:5) Brother Benildo was only 33 when he was appointed as the first Filipino Visitor of the District of the Philippines and just 39 when he was elected to the General Council in 1976. The gift of wisdom is normally associated with our elders but although still young Benildo showed signs of possessing the gift in performing duties traditionally reserved for more mature people. From those early years of responsibility, he was affectionately referred to by the young Filipino Brothers as “the Commander” for his stern persona and reputation for making swift and final decisions. However, beneath his tough exterior there was a very discerning and caring person. He exemplified De La Salle’s caution to the Brothers before their students that, “If you have for them the firmness of a father… you must also have for them the tenderness of a mother….” (Med. 101.3) His years of experience in religious life and serving the District and Institute in various capacities made him more attuned to how the Spirit continued to be a moving force in his daily actions. He was not just any commander. He was a commander with wisdom and compassion.

  • Student Handbook
    Part 1 INTRODUCTION ABOUT THE FOUNDER May 15 Saint John Baptist de La Salle (1651 - 1719) Founder of the Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools Patron of Christian Educators Born in Rheims, France, on April 30, 1651, John Baptist de La Salle completed seminary studies in Philosophy and Theology, including the doctorate, and was ordained priest on April 9, 1678. He overcame continuous opposition in founding the Religious Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools to provide a human and Christian education for the children of the artisan and the poor, who were deprived of such an opportunity. He esteemed the teaching ministry to be so important that the Brothers would not be tempted to abandon their primary ministry of teaching. He developed, with the first Brothers, revolutionary teaching methods in the use of the vernacular language, the grouping and instructing of students according to ability and achievement, the integration of human and Christian education, the systematic preparation of teachers, and the involvement of parents. The institute he founded was the first lay male religious community in the Church. The Rule of the Brothers later served as a model for a number of other teaching congregations. After long years of heroic service, John Baptist de La Salle died on Good Friday, April 7, 1719, in Rouen, France. He was beatified on February 19, 1888, and canonized on May 24, 1900. On May 15, 1950, Pope Pius XII proclaimed Saint John Baptist de La Salle the heavenly Patron of all Christian teachers.
