What's Happening

7 de abril: Viernes Santo

Vamos a estar congregados hoy para recordar, con veneración, la Pasión y muerte de nuestro Señor Jesucristo. Él estará ante nosotros como el “Hombre de Dolores,” insultado, torturado, desfigurado, aplastado, finalmente muerto en una Cruz.

Even though this was a very uncomfortable truth for the early Church, there was no attempt to gloss over the disturbing fact that, according to Matthew 26, 14-25, Jesus was betrayed by someone who dipped his […]

5 de abril: Su Inmenso Amor

La Semana Santa nos está recordando que Jesús viene a establecer una nueva forma de relacionarnos con Dios – basada en la compasión y en el amor gratuito y, por tanto, la práctica de la ley Divina es una respuesta libre y amorosa del ser humano que se siente amado por Dios. La ley del […]
