Mountain Tabor - Mountain of Transfiguration
Look at that mountain!
Do you want to go with Jesus, Peter, John and James on "the High Mountain"?
Courage! Come and pray. Meet with God and hear His voice:
"This is my beloved Son, and listen to him."
Every participation in the Holy Mass and reception of Holy Communion prepares us and strengthens,
by the grace of God he was with us to carry daily Cross with Jesus.
THE EUCHARIST IS LIKE MOUNTAIN TABOR, IT IS THE TIME TO ETERNITY IN THE TEMPORALITY
21 February - Second Sunday of Lent - Mission Sunday - Sunday "Ad Gentes" - "To Nations"
THE LENT IT IS TIME TO BREAKING SCHMAS,
THE LENT IT IS TIME TO ENTER THE NEW WAY,
THE LENT IT IS TIME OF PRAYER, FASTING AND VICTIMS,
THE LENT IT IS TIME TO CONNECT OUR SUFFERING WITH THE PASSION OF JESUS,
TO REACH THE RESURRECTION IN THE GLORY OF THE HOLY TRINITY.
SUNDAY READINGS
Philippians 3,17--4,1
Brothers, be united in imitating me. Keep your eyes fixed on those who act according to the example you have from me.
For there are so many people of whom I have often warned you, and now I warn you again with tears in my eyes, who behave like the enemies of Christ's cross.
They are destined to be lost; their god is the stomach; they glory in what they should think shameful, since their minds are set on earthly things.
But our homeland is in heaven and it is from there that we are expecting a Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ,
who will transfigure the wretched body of ours into the mould of his glorious body, through the working of the power which he has, even to bring all things under his mastery.
So then, my brothers and dear friends whom I miss so much, my joy and my crown, hold firm in the Lord, dear friends.
Gospel - Lukas 9, 28b-36
Now about eight days after this had been said, he took with him Peter, John and James and went up the mountain to pray.
And it happened that, as he was praying, the aspect of his face was changed and his clothing became sparkling white.
And suddenly there were two men talking to him; they were Moses and Elijah
appearing in glory, and they were speaking of his passing which he was to accomplish in Jerusalem.
Peter and his companions were heavy with sleep, but they woke up and saw his glory and the two men standing with him.
As these were leaving him, Peter said to Jesus, 'Master, it is wonderful for us to be here; so let us make three shelters, one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah.' He did not know what he was saying.
As he was saying this, a cloud came and covered them with shadow; and when they went into the cloud the disciples were afraid.
And a voice came from the cloud saying, 'This is my Son, the Chosen One. Listen to him.'
And after the voice had spoken, Jesus was found alone. The disciples kept silence and, at that time, told no one what they had seen.
