What's Happening

21 de marzo: “Contracorriente”

Nuestros antepasados, la primera comunidad cristiana, vivía su compromiso cristiano de forma muy radical. Para ellos el haber descubierto a Jesús de Nazareth era algo tan importante y fundamental que sus vidas habían cambiado para siempre. Se daban cuenta que el proyecto de Jesús era algo muy serio y que no era fácil seguirlo. Las […]

March 20 / 20 de marzo: St. Joseph / San José

Today marks the (transferred) feastday of St. Joseph, the Husband of Mary. Since the 10th century, March 19th has been the date of this celebration, but is has always been “transferred” to the 20th of March when the 19th falls on a Sunday. The Gospels briefly mention St. Joseph and say that he was a […]

19 de marzo: El Día del Señor

Escuchamos hoy, como el domingo anterior, un largo texto del Evangelio (Juan 9, 1-41). Y, también como el domingo anterior, el texto nos ha contado la historia de una persona que se encontró a Cristo en su camino, y salió transformado de ese encuentro. El domingo pasado fue la samaritana, que iba a sacar agua […]

Be joyful….” This sentiment expresses our joy in anticipation of the Resurrection of the Lord. Today’s Gospel (John 9, 1-41) is one of […]

18-19 de marzo: Preparándonos para Celebrar la Misa Dominical

El Cuarto Domingo de Cuaresma nos enfrenta con nuestra ceguera – porque no vemos nada. Vemos escasamente la superficie de las personas, de las cosas, y de los acontecimientos, pero no vemos su verdadera y profunda realidad, o dicho Bíblicamente: “el hombre mira las apariencias, pero el Señor mira el corazón.” El corazón de la […]

March 18-19: Preparing to Celebrate Sunday’s Mass

The Catholic Scripture readings for Sunday Masses rotate on a three-year cycle. The present year is called Year A and it offers us an interesting selection of readings for the 3rd, 4th, and 5th Sundays of Lent: the Samaritan Woman at the Well (John 4, 3-42); the Man Born Blind (John 9, 1-41); and the […]
