Rev. Fr. Nolasco L. Fernandez

Feast of Candelaria “candle mass” and the Feast of the Presentation of Jesus in the Temple.
The 40th day after Christmas

The candle is a symbol of Jesus. He is the light of not only Jews, but also Gentiles. Jesus came
to save all of us.

It is our fault if we go to hell. The Catholic Church has Seven Sacraments. God does not turn
away from us, but we sinners do. When we get baptized, our original sin is taken away. We are
consecrated to God. Let us o er our lives to Jesus. He gave up His life for us to save us from
sin and death.

We need to serve the parish, because what will happen to the Church if the youth do not
participate?

Jesus is the light to the Gentiles. We need a change of heart! Jesus is the light of ALL.

✦ Ang kabataan ang pag-asa ng iglesiya. Hell is eternal. Accept God’s blessings. Be holy as
your Father is holy.
