0:00 A reading from the Holy Gospel according to St. Matthew. >> Glory to you, O Lord. >> When Jesus saw the crowds, he went up on a mountain side. After he had sat down, his disciples gathered around him, and he began to teach them. How blessed are the poor in spirits. The reign of God is theirs. Blessed too are the sorrowing, they shall be consoled. Blessed are the lowly, they shall inherit the land. Blessed are they who hunger and thirst for holiness. They shall have their
0:46 fill. Blessed are they who show mercy. Mercy shall be theirs. Blessed are the single-hearted, for they will see God. Blessed are the peacemakers, they shall be called sons of God. Blessed are those persecuted for holiness sake. The reign of God is theirs. Blessed are you when they insult you and persecute you and utter every kind of slander against you because of me. Be glad and rejoice for your reward in heaven is great.
1:40 >> The gospel of the Lord. >> Praise to you Lord Jesus Christ. Come Holy Spirit, bless this unworthy priest that I may share with humility and with the heart and that people listen with the Holy Spirit in their hearts. Come Holy Spirit, come. Sisters and brothers, we thank father Dun Salbero from Davao. Interesting. He studied in Germany, was ordained in Germany.
2:26 It's very interesting that the Germans were the ones who sent the SVDs to the Philippines since 1909 and now we are sending Filipino missionaries to serve in Germany and all over Europe. This is all because of God's grace and February now. It's February. One year one month has passed already. And what is the message of Mama Mary for all of us? Remember every month the first message of Mama Mary January was don't worry about January. I am with you every single day.
3:16 What is the message of February for us? Don't worry about February. God will make a way. You know today talking about way the Lord is telling us in the biatitudes there is another way cuz see we are so focused on the way of the world but Christ is telling us take the way of the biatitudes. Blessed are you who are poor. The world tells you Homie of our poor. Oh, the Lord tells us, "Blessed are you
4:02 who are sorrowing." Enjoy. See how different it is. That's the way of the world. You cannot relate connect with the biatitudes if you're not connected with the Lord. Let's check if we are still connected. So important to have connections, right? John, would you give me a number between 1 to five? Five. Connect to John. Connect. Tony Jen number please. Between 1 to five. Three.
4:51 Connect. What I'm saying is this. If you're not connected, all this talk about the par the biatitudes is nothing. Doesn't make sense today. Please think twice. Don't dismiss the biatitudes. Be attitudes if you want to live a peaceful meaningful life. Otherwise, you follow the way of the world. Maybe you will reach the heights. You have a lot of money. You'll be praised by all. But you are living a life that is shallow, vain, and empty.
5:41 Review. The Lord tells us, "Be poor." Many of us want to be rich, but not only materially. Many of us are poor in spirit and the Lord tells us it's okay. The world tells you be rich. By all means be rich. Steal if you have to, but be rich. Please listen. Connect with the Lord. It's okay to be poor. Excuse me. Excuse
6:32 me. Blessed are you who have money and you hard you earn it by hard and honest work. And do not envy those who prosper by evil ways. Please don't envy them. Stay good. Stay beautiful. Oh, the Lord tells us today in the biatitudes connect. Okay. Biatitudes again tells us be
7:18 humble. The world tells you no rise above everyone. Go ahead of everyone. And here is the beatitude that says it's okay. Slow down. It's okay not to be recognized. It is okay. It's okay. Be humble. Remember our chant. Go slow, stay low. Yes. Yes. Go slow. Stay low.
8:19 final destination mo. That's the road. Congratulations to all of you who choose to be humble, who choose to be good, who choose to be merciful. The world will not praise you in the eyes of the world. Fools. Fools for Christ. Why would someone like Father Yo, for example, only son 28, newly ordained leave the family and go to far away Portugal because of mission.
9:04 There must be some deeper reason why people do these things. Please broaden your mindset. The way of the world. That's why anytime this is what the world says, but Lord, what do you say? Then you're connected right now. Is there anything that's bothering you? To resolve all these things, the best thing is to say, Lord, what do you say? Then the biatitudes will come. Oh, be good. Stay good, please.
9:56 Good feel. Yeah. This is so important connecting. Always be peaceful. War freak. I admire people who try their best. The peacemakers. In every family there is one peacemaker. gathering everybody. No, come together. No. Blessed are you if you are that peacemaker.
10:42 But you're doing only something for the sake of everyone. Blessed are those who work for justice, who work for the poor. My there is blessing in every goodness that you do. And the Lord tells us to be happy in spite of everything. Sisters and brothers, continue to take the road of the biatitudes. Beatitude, the road of bad attitudes.
11:30 Do you have an attitude problem? Bad attitudes. It is only the Lord who will clear the way for us. But please listen. Listen to the Lord. And well, what is the reward? Blessed are you when men insult you and hate you and persecute you because of me. Blessed are the peacemakers, for your reward will be great in heaven. Well, we also say goodbye to Father Bell San Louis SVD. He did his work spreading the good news as an educator and all but as a
12:18 communications person print, radio, TV, social media, spreading the love of God. He will be buried tomorrow afternoon 3 p.m. Sisters and brothers, take the road of the biatitudes. And today too I would like to thank God and I would like to say this in this mass our 15 years already 15 year vision of having a hermitage a house of prayer is finally finished. the long search.
13:04 We now have a house of prayer especially for priest any priest who wants to pray rest recharge that's so important for all of us I thank God that through the biatitudes following the biatitudes to be patient to be hopeful continuing project And it all started also when I was preaching online some four years ago. I was telling them my dream.
13:56 like a child. And guess what? Two sisters were attending that mass online and they look at each other and they said, "Father or the the Manalo family of Batanga said, "Father, we have this." Wow. Imagine how things fall into place if you follow the beatitude. When they told me, "Father,000,
14:42 siblings in their 60s and 70s." comes back and said, "Father, hectars." See when the Lord works beyond the way of the world beatatitudes sisters and brothers the Lord is asking us maybe you need a change of attitude and please don't go for altitude go for good beatitudes.
15:30 altitude. We don't need that to have peace. And now what more witness of the biatitudes than a missionary young good-looking missionary so filled with so much energy leaving home and country to go to another land because the Lord has called him for a mission. Let's welcome Father Yoanilia in his message for all of us this morning.

17:56 love is constant because it is not fake. It is a good attitude. My dear friends, always speak from the heart. And in this moment, in this holy eukarist, I ask you to pray for me, to
18:43 pray for us priests, for our mission. Because the priest is not always right. The priest will always be wrong. The priest is also like you.
19:35 My dear friends, as you pray for me, I promise Mama Mary That is a promise. Please continue to pray for me and for us missionaries so that at the end we can live the biatitudes. Amen.
20:24 We shall now have the mission sending ceremony to be led by Father Jun Okampo. May I ask the mama and the family of Father Yoen to come here in front. Family, are they here now? Please come, mama.
21:18 May I invite Father Euan to kneel down before the altar as we bless his mission cross with which we will be giving it to him to accompany him in his new mission. Father Euan Pubilia in the name of our general superior Reverend Father Anelmo Ricardo Rivero SBD and your fellow miss SBD missionaries with us here and this whole congregation present. I send you to your first mission to Portugal and you shall now receive your mission
22:05 cross. Be assured of our prayers and best wishes for you. We shall now bless your mission cross. Heavenly Father, look graciously upon your servant, Father Euan Hubilia, as we send him forth as a messenger of salvation and peace, marked with the sign of the cross. Guide his steps with your mighty arm. Strengthen his spirit with the power of your grace so that he may not falter in times of weariness.
22:50 May his words resound as an echo of Jesus, the divine word, so that all who hear him may be drawn to embrace the gospel. Fill the heart of this missionary with the fire of the Holy Spirit, so that becoming all things to all people, he may lead many souls to you, the Father of all, and together with them sing your praises in your holy church. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Father of all holiness, you wield the cross of your son to be the fountain of all blessing, the source of all grace. Bless this cross and grant that Father
23:37 Euan who will preach Christ crucified to others may himself strive to be transformed into his image. We ask this in the name of Jesus the Lord. Father you receive this sign of Christ's love and the mission for which the church has chosen you. >> We ask everybody to rise. We sent our father with our prayers. By Jesus [singing] we
24:24 together as brothers from many cultures. We pass over to be with others, offering and receiving good news with respect, understanding, [singing] compassion and love.
