Let us praise Christ, who loves, nourishes and supports his Church. With faith let us cry out to him:
Answer the prayers of your people, Lord.
Lord Jesus, grant that all men be saved,
— and come to the knowledge of truth.
Answer the prayers of your people, Lord.
Preserve our holy father,
— and all our bishops, come with your power to help them.
Answer the prayers of your people, Lord.
Remember those who long for honest work,
— so that they may lead a life of peaceful security.
Answer the prayers of your people, Lord.
Lord, be the refuge of the poor,
— their help in distress.
Answer the prayers of your people, Lord.
We commend to your care all bishops, priests and deacons who have died,
— may they sing your praises for ever around your heavenly throne.
Answer the prayers of your people, Lord.

Reflection: My Take on Being Pro-Life as a Filipino Catholic
This is a day of prayer for the unborn and of penance for the sins committed through acts of abortion. Here is a 2019 Post I wrote about the fight against abortion. My Reflection narrates how I became Pro-Life, and why I care about the Pro-Life updates and issues in the United States, even I’m a Filipino. You, too, must care. Whether you’re from the US or whichever part of the world, I encourage you to take a look back at this article to better understand what being ‘Pro-Life Catholic’ truly means.
This first Post to start off the 20’s offers an absorbing My Reflection. I’m sharing with you my heartfelt personal advice on how to let go of the past… the way I did. Many “practicing” Catholics are still carrying the heavy baggages of the past—hurts, wounds, bad choices, wrong decisions, mistakes, regrets. Here is a Catholic perspective on why letting go of the past will enable you to move on, with God, to have a present and a future. I guarantee that there is so much to reflect on and learn in my piece. Happy New Year 2020!
