GOSPEL ACCLAMATION
Meng
: If we love one another, God lives in union with us, and his love is perfect in
us.
Fr. Mara :
All
Fr. Mara : Some Pharisees came to him and tried to trap him by asking Does our Law
allow a man to divorce his wife for whatever reason he wishes? Jesus
answered, Havent you read the Scripture that says that in the beginning,
the Creator made people male and female? And God said, For this reason,
a man will leave his father and mother and unite with his wife, and the two
will become one. So they are no longer two but one. Man must not
separate, then, what God has joined together.

beside them.)
Archbishop Lavarias : Dearly beloved Juanito and Raquel you stand here today
before the Lord to give Him thanks for having shown you His love in a very
special way when He blessed and consecrated your love on the day of your
marriage. Assuring you to stand by your side in your every need, He
entrusted the success of your married life to you as a task and a gift. You
thank Him now for all these years of shared joys and sacrifices, perhaps
also sorrows and struggles which are part of life. You still need Him now,
that you may continue on the way of love and loyalty which cannot but go on
growing. This Christian community rejoices with you and asks the Lord with
you that he may bless you and keep you in His love.
May I ask you, dear brothers and sisters, to join Juanito and Raquel in
giving thanks to the Lord for His goodness and in praying that they may
grow together living in Gods love.

and called us to find a home and a family. We look back with gratitude on
the years You have given us together. Help us to avoid the mistakes of the
past and sustain our love with Your love, that, in ever-growing unity of heart
and soul, we may reach together Your unending marriage feast in heaven.
Bless this our wish and task.
Arcbishop Lavarias : May the Lord God confirm once more the consent which you

sufficiency of material possessions which these arrhae symbolizes so that
they may use them to attain eternal life. These are the token of the earthly
blessings. These are symbols of rich, abundant blessings which you both
received and not separately, but together.
Juanito and Raquel : Dear God, we are grateful for these earthly blessings we have
received and used these resources realizing that whatever gifts we have in
life, are not ours ultimately but Gods. As guardians and stewards of Gods
gifts, we thank Him for these blessings which we provided also to our
childrens well- being and security.

All
11
All
Archbishop Lavarias :
It is truly right and just, our duty and our salvation, always and
everywhere to give you thanks, Lord, Holy Father, almighty and eternal
God, through Christ our Lord.
For in him you have made a new covenant with your people, so that
as you have redeemed man and woman by the mystery of Christs death
and resurrection, so in Christ you might make them partakers of divine
nature and joint heirs with him of heavenly glory.
In the union of husband and wife you give a sign of Christs loving gift of
grace, so that the sacrament we celebrate might draw us back more
deeply into the wondrous design of your love.
And so, with the Angels and all the Saints, we praise you, and
without end we acclaim:
