Pastoral Letter for the Archdiocese of Lingayen Dagupan to be read as homily for all Masses for the Eleventh Sunday in Ordinary Time, June 15 and 16, 2024 Beloved people of God in the Church of Lingayen Dagupan: The threat is no longer imagined. It is no longer mere conjecture. There is evidence of insidious attempts by a foreign power that governs by an ideology that recognizes no God and keeps all religion and the practice of faith under the heavy heel of its totalitarian boot to “trample our sacred shores.”
Walay baleg ya katwaan ya ipapapaamta na sayan partiy Masanton Sulat, ta amtak a say kipapasen nen Cristo tan say iglisia so kipaakaran to. (Efeso 5,32)
It is the collective discernment of your bishops and priests in the Church of Lingayen Dagupan that there is a clear and urgent need to rekindle the fire for the understanding and reverence for the mystery of the Real Presence of the Lord in the Holy Eucharist which has seen deterioration and confusion and even abuse in recent years.
Meditation by Archbishop Socrates B. Villegas, Archbishop of Lingayen Dagupan, on the occasion of Chrism Mass on March 28, 2024 at the Cathedral of Saint John the Evangelist, Dagupan City
What is simbang gabi? Can the Catholic faithful fulfill this simbang gabi devotion by attending Mass at daytime? Can we start our simbang gabi on the evening of the 15th of December and end on the 23rd? What is anticipated simbang gabi? How do we observe simbang gabi on Sundays? What do we mean that funeral Masses cannot be held on the Sundays of advent? Can we have weddings on the Sundays of advent? What hymns and songs are appropriate for the Masses during the simbang gabi? What is Parol na Panamasabi? How can we improve this Filipino tradition of simbang gabi?
