What's Happening

19-20 de diciembre: Preparándonos para Celebrar el Cuarto Domingo de Adviento

A base de haber escuchado tantas veces el relato del Evangelio de este domingo (La Anunciación: Lucas 1,26-38), tenemos un riesgo: podemos haber perdido la capacidad de asombro. Escribía Martín Descalzo: “Creo que, si tuviera que definir la Navidad con sólo dos palabras, elegiría, sin dudar, éstas: Alegría y Asombro. Y, si tuviera que hacerlo […]

December 19-20: Preparing for the Fourth Sunday of Advent

“Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with you!” What a startling greeting! How did Mary react to such an extraordinary salutation? The Gospel says that she was “greatly troubled,” and well she might be.

Es patrono de la Iglesia Universal, de una infinidad de comunidades […]

In 1833, he founded the St. Vincent de Paul Society, an organization that serves the poor. Today, the Society is active in 131 countries of the world and offers services such as thrift stores, home […]
