2 de enero: El Noveno Día de la Navidad

Al celebrar la primera Misa del año 2023 ayer, el Papa Francisco alentó a invocar el don de la esperanza a la Virgen María, Madre de Dios, con confianza, porque “Dios no nos ama de palabra, sino con hechos.” Durante su homilía en la Solemnidad de Santa María, Madre de Dios, [y el Día Mundial […]
