Prayer for a Spiritual Retreat

Jesus, you invited the apostles to

come away with you to a deserted
place and rest a while. Like your
apostles, enable me to experience
You on retreat your suffering love
and tender compassion. May I
come to better know myself, to
draw closer to you, and to thus be
of better service to my brothers
and sisters in the Church. Help me
to listen attentively, to ponder
prayerfully, to respond generously,
and to benefit from the solitude
and peace. Through the
intercession of Mary, Mother of
Sorrows, may I and my fellow
retreatants leave our retreat as
deeply committed Christians,
better able to follow your footsteps
in all the opportunities and
challenges of life. Amen.

PSALMODY

Ant. 1 Like burning incense, Lord, let my prayer rise

up to you.

Psalm 141:1-9
A prayer when in danger
An angel stood before the face of God, thurible in hand.
The fragrant incense soaring aloft was the prayer of God’s people on
earth (Revelation 8:4)

a I have called to you, Lord; hasten to help me! *

b Hear my voice when I cry to you.
c Let my prayer arise before you like incense, *
d the raising of my hands like an evening oblation.

a Set, O Lord, a guard over my mouth; *

b keep watch at the door of my lips!
c Do not turn my heart to things that are wrong, *
d to evil deeds with men who are sinners.

9
 10

a Never allow me to share in their feasting. *

b If a good man strikes or reproves me it is kindness;
c but let the oil of the wicked not anoint my head. *
d Let my prayer be ever against their malice.

a Their princes were thrown down by the side of the

rock: *
b then they understood that my words were kind.
c As a millstone is shattered to pieces on the ground, *
d so their bones were strewn at the mouth of the grave.

a To you, Lord God, my eyes are turned: *

b in you I take refuge; spare my soul!
c From the trap they have laid for me keep me safe: *
d keep me from the snares of those who do evil.

a Glory to the Father, and to the Son, *

b and to the Holy Spirit:
c as it was in the beginning, is now, *
d and will be for ever. Amen.

Psalm Prayer

Lord, from the rising of the sun to its setting your name is
worthy of all praise. Let our prayer come like incense before
you. May the lifting up of our hands be as an evening sacri-
fice acceptable to you, Lord our God.

Ant. 1 Like burning incense, Lord, let my prayer rise

up to you.
(some brief silence)

Ant. 2 You are my refuge, Lord; you are all that I de-
sire in life.

Psalm 142
You, Lord, are my refuge

What is written in this psalm was fulfilled in our Lord’s pas-

sion (Saint Hilary).

a With all my voice I cry to the Lord, *

b with all my voice I entreat the Lord.
a I pour out my trouble before him; *
b I tell him all my distress
c while my spirit faints within me. *
d But you, O Lord, know my path.

11
 12

a On the way where I shall walk *

b they have hidden a snare to entrap me.
a Look on my right and see: *
b there is not one who takes my part.
c I have no means of escape, *
d not one who cares for my soul.

a I cry to you, O Lord. †

I have said: “You are my refuge, *
b all I have left in the land of the living.”
c Listen then to my cry *
d for I am in the depths of distress.

a Rescue me from those who pursue me *

b for they are stronger than I.
a Bring my soul out of this prison *
b and then I shall praise your name.
c Around me the just will assemble *
d because of your goodness to me.

a Glory to the Father, and to the Son, *

b and to the Holy Spirit:
c as it was in the beginning, is now, *
d and will be for ever. Amen.

Ant. 2 You are my refuge, Lord; you are all that I de-
sire in life.

Psalm Prayer

Lord, we humbly ask for your goodness. May you help us

to hope in you, and give us a share with your chosen
ones in the land of the living.

Ant. 3 The Lord Jesus humbled himself, and God exalt-

ed him for ever.

Canticle: Philippians 2:6-11

Christ, God’s holy servant

a Though he was in the form of God, †

Jesus did not deem equality with God *
b something to be grasped at.

a Rather, he emptied himself †

and took the form of a slave, *
b being born in the likeness of men.

a He was known to be of human estate, *

b and it was thus that he humbled himself,
c obediently accepting even death, *
d death on a cross!

a Because of this, *
b God highly exalted him
c and bestowed on him the name *
d above every other name,

READING (Romans 11:33-36 )

How deep are the riches and the wisdom and the
knowledge of God! How inscrutable his judgments, how
unsearchable his ways! For “who has known the mind of
the Lord? Or who has been his counselor? Who has given
him anything so as to deserve return?” For from him and
through him and for him all things are. To him be glory
forever. Amen.

UNANG PAGBASA
Karunungan 1, 13-15; 2, 23-24

Pagbasa mula sa aklat ng Karunungan

Ang kamatayan ay hindi likha ng Diyos,

ang pagkamatay ng alinmang may buhay ay hindi niya
ikinalulugod.
Ginawa niya ang bawat nilalang upang magpatuloy,
at lahat ng nilalang niya ay mabuti at mahusay.
Wala silang kamandag na nakamamatay.
Ang kamatayan ay di naghahari sa daigdig na ito,
sapagkat ang katarungan ng Diyos ay walang kamatayan.
Pagkat ang tao’y hindi nilikha ng Diyos para mamatay,
kundi para maging larawan niyang buhay.
Ngunit dahil sa pakana ng diyablo,
nakapasok ang kamatayan at ito ang kahihinatnan ng mga
napailalim sa kanya.

Ang Salita ng Diyos.

SALAMAT SA DIYOS.

SALMONG TUGUNAN
Salmo 29, 2 at 4. 5-6. 11 at 12a at 13b

Poong sa aki’y nagligtas,

ang dangal mo’y aking galak.

O Panginoon ko,
sa iyong ginawa, kita’y pinupuri’t ako’y iniligtas,
kaya ang kaaway ay di na nakuhang matuwa’t magalak.
Mula sa libingang
daigdig ng patay, hinango mo ako at muling binuhay;
ako, na kasama nilang napabaon sa kailaliman.

37
 38

Vademecum

Purihin ang Poon,

Siya ay awitan ng lahat ng tapat na mga hinirang.
Iyong gunitain ang mga ginawa ng Diyos na Banal,
ang kanyang ginawa ay alalahanin at pasalamatan!
Hindi nagtatagal
yaong kanyang galit, at ang kabutihan niya’y walang wakas.
Ang abang may hapis at tigmak sa luha sa buong mag-
damag,
sa bukang-liwayway ay wala nang lungkot, kapalit ay galak.

Poong sa aki’y nagligtas,

ang dangal mo’y aking galak.

Kaya’t ako’y dinggin,

Ikaw ay mahabag sa akin, O Poon, ako ay pakinggan,
mahabag ka, Poon! Ako ay dinggin mo at iyong tulungan.
Nadama ko’y galak nang iyong hubarin ang aking
panluksa.
Sa pasasalamat sa iyo, O Poon, ay di magsasawa.

Poong sa aki’y nagligtas,

ang dangal mo’y aking galak.

IKALAWANG PAGBASA
2 Timoteo 4, 6-8. 17-18

Pagbasa mula sa ikalawang sulat ni Apostol San Pablo kay

Timoteo

Pinakamamahal, ako’y iaalay na; dumating na ang oras ng

pagpanaw ko sa buhay na ito. Puspusan akong lumaban sa
paligsahan. Natapos ko na ang dapat kong takbuhin.
Nanatili akong tapat sa pananampalataya. Kakamtan ko na
ang korona ng pagtatagumpay. At sa Araw na yaon, ang
Panginoon na siyang makatarungang hukom, ang mag-
puputong sa akin ng korona, hindi lamang sa akin, kundi sa
lahat ng nananabik sa muli niyang pagparito.

ALELUYA (Mateo 16, 18)

Aleluya! Aleluya!
Ikaw, Pedro, ang saligan
ng aking simbahang banal
na daig ang kamatayan.
Aleluya! Aleluya!

MABUTING BALITA (Mateo 16, 13-19)

Ang Mabuting Balita ng Panginoon ayon kay San Mateo

-PAPURI SA IYO, PANGINOONG HESUKRISTO

Noong panahong iyon, muling tumawid si Hesus sa

ibayo ng Lawa ng Galilea, nakasakay sa bangka. Nasa bay-
bay pa siya ng lawa ay pinagkalimpumpunan na siya ng
maraming tao. Dumating ang isang lalaking nagngangalang
Jairo, isang tagapamahala ng sinagoga. Pagkakita kay He-
sus, siya’y nagpatirapa sa kanyang paanan, at ang samo:
“Agaw-buhay po ang anak kong dalagita. Kung maaari,
sumama kayo sa akin at ipatong ninyo sa kanya ang inyong
kamay upang siya’y gumaling at mabuhay!” Sumama na-
man si Hesus. At sinundan siya ng napakaraming taong
nagsisiksikan, anupa’t halos maipit na siya.

May isang babae roon na labindalawang taon nang

dinudugo, at lubhang nahihirapan. Marami nang mang-
gagamot ang tumingin sa kanya, at naubos na sa kapapaga-
mot ang kanyang ari-arian, ngunit hindi siya napabuti kahit
kaunti bagkus ay lalong lumubha. Narinig niya ang sinasabi
ng mga tao tungkol kay Hesus, kaya’t nakipagsiksikan siya
hanggang sa makalapit sa likuran ni Hesus. At hinipo niya
ang damit nito. Sapagkat sinabi niya sa sarili, “Mahipo ko
lang ang kanyang damit ay gagaling na ako.” Biglang tumi-
gil ang kanyang pagdudugo at naramdaman niyang magal-
ing na siya.

40
 41

Kadluan: A Spiritual Retreat for Schola Trinitatis

Naramdaman naman ni Hesus na may kapangyari-

hang lumabas sa kanya, kaya’t bumaling siya sa mga tao at
nagtanong, “Sino ang humipo sa akin?” Sumagot ang
kanyang mga alagad, “Nakikita po ninyong nagsisiksikan
ang napakaraming tao, bakit itinatanong ninyo kung sino
ang humipo sa inyo?” Subalit patuloy na luminga-linga si
Hesus, hinahanap ang humipo sa kanya. Palibhasa’y alam
ng babae ang nangyari, siya’y nanginginig sa takot na
lumapit kay Hesus, nagpatirapa, at ipinagtapat ang buong
katotohanan. Sinabi sa kanya ni Hesus, “Anak pinagaling ka
ng iyong pananalig sa akin. Umuwi ka na’t ipanatag mo ang
iyong kalooban. Lubusan ka nang magaling sa iyong
karamdaman.”

Samantalang nagsasalita pa si Hesus, may ilang du-

mating mula sa bahay ni Jairo. “Patay na po ang anak
ninyo,” sabi nila. “Bakit pa ninyo aabalahin ang Guro?”
Hindi pinansin ni Hesus ang kanilang sinabi, sa halip ay
sinabi sa tagapamahala, “Huwag kang mabagabag, manalig
ka.” At wala siyang isinama kundi si Pedro at ang magka-
patid na Santiago at Juan. Nang dumating sila sa bahay ng
tagapamahala, nakita ni Hesus na gulung-gulo ang mga tao;
may mga nananangis pa at nananaghoy. Pagpasok niya ay
kanyang sinabi, “Bakit kayo nagkakagulo at nananangis?
Hindi patay ang bata; natutulog lamang!” Ngunit pinag-
tawanan siya ng mga tao. Pinalabas niya ang lahat, maliban
sa ama’t ina ng bata at sa tatlong alagad, at sila’y pumasok
sa kinaroroonan ng bata. Hinawakan niya ito sa kamay at
sinabi, “Talita kumi,” na ang ibig sabihi’y “Ineng, sinasabi
ko sa iyo, magbangon ka!” Pagdaka’y bumangon ang bata
at lumakad. Siya’y labindalawang taon na. At namangha
ang lahat. Mahigpit na ipinagbilin ni Hesus na huwag
ipaalam ito kaninuman; at iniutos niyang bigyan ng pagkain
ang bata.

Ang Mabuting Balita ng Panginoon.

PAGPAPAHAYAG NG PANANAMPALATAYA

Sumasampalataya ako sa Diyos Amang maka-

pangyarihan sa lahat, na may gawa ng langit at lupa.
Sumasampalataya naman ako kay Hesukristo, iisang Anak
ng Diyos, Panginoon nating lahat.
Nagkatawang tao Siya lalang ng Espiritu Santo,
ipinanganak ni Santa Mariang Birhen.
Pinagpakasakit ni Poncio Pilato, ipinako sa krus, namatay,
inilibing. Nanaog sa karoroonan ng mga yumao. Nang may
ikatlong araw nabuhay na mag-uli.
Umakyat sa langit, naluluklok sa kanan ng Diyos Amang
Makapangyarihan sa lahat. Doon magmumulang paririto't
maghuhukom sa nangabubuhay at nangamamatay na tao.
Sumasampalataya naman ako sa Diyos Espiritu Santo,
Sa Banal na Simbahang Katolika, sa kasamahan ng mga ba-
nal; Sa kapatawaran ng mga kasalanan, Sa pagkabuhay na
mag-uli ng nangamatay na tao, At sa buhay na walang
hanggan. Amen.
