Tawau : Celebrating the coming of our Lord Christ Jesus in the Christmas season reminds us of God's grace and love to humankind. During this season God reveals Himself to us fully, completely and perfectly in Jesus Christ. 'Behold, I bring you good news of a great joy which will come to all the people, for to you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, who is Christ the Lord.' (Luke 2 : 10-11)
Remembering the wonderful and meaningful moment some 900 or more parishioners
attended the Christmas Midnight Mass on 24th December 2012 and some 1000 during the Bahasa Christmas Day Mass on the 25th December 2012.
Presided by Msgr. Nicholas Ong, Mass began at 9.00 pm. He welcomed the parishioners by
saying, “I always believe that God’s blessings are upon each one of us especially during this very festive season. Christmas is a time to give
thanks and glory to our Father who has sent us a saviour."
He went on to say, “ Jesus is God become man
and become the food for both the faithful and the sinful. God reveals himself
to us as Christ, God and Messiah who brings peace to the world."
"In the Old Testament, laws came to us through Moses, but in the New Testament, grace and truth, that
is Love and faithfulness came to us through Jesus Christ. With these truths we
are called to proclaim the Good News about Jesus Christ our Lord , God and
saviour." he said .
The Mass began with a 30-minute presentation of Christmas
carols by members of the caroling groups from 8.00 pm to 8.30 pm followed by the Holy Mass at 9.00 pm. The crib was blessed by Msgr.Ong preceeding the Mass.
I believe this is among the such a lot significant info for me.
