Este domingo comienza un nuevo año litúrgico con un llamado a estar vigilantes porque el Señor está cerca. Es el tiempo del Adviento, tiempo en el cual evocamos la época anterior a la llegada del Señor la cual celebramos en la Navidad. Durante los próximos cuatro domingos vamos a meditar sobre el hecho de que…
Estamos muy cerca a finalizar tanto el año del calendario como el año litúrgico. Es importante al final del recorrido ver cómo ha sido nuestro caminar a la luz de la esperanza cristiana que se centra en la experiencia de la resurrección. Recordemos que esta esperanza vive referida y abierta al futuro. No a un…
[RCL]: Isaiah 2:1-5; Psalm 122; Romans 13:11-14; Matthew 24:36-44 The hippopotamus is an awfully deadly animal. According to the Encyclopedia Britannica hippos are the sixth most deadly mammal to humans on the planet. Hippos follow elephants, horses, deer, tigers, and of course, other humans as the most dangerous mammals to human beings. Most of us,…
When you think of a king what image immediately comes to mind? A man wearing a crown and regal clothing? Perhaps someone who is powerful living in a royal palace? In the time of Jesus, the ruling monarch of Rome had absolute power on earth and was worshipped as a son of the gods. Any…
Con la celebración del Reinado de Cristo o Cristo Rey, culminamos el año litúrgico. El próximo domingo comienza el nuevo año litúrgico con el Primer Domingo de Adviento. En este domingo se resalta el señorío universal de Jesús. Cristo viene de la palabra griega Christós que significa el ungido, y equivale al hebreo Mesiah que también significa ungido. Desde las primeras generaciones de…
There are some words that just sound good, that are attractive all by themselves. A great example, which the Gospel reading especially brought to mind, is ‘penultimate’. It’s a fine old Latin word that means ‘next to the last’. Not the last, not the ultimate, but next to that, before that. The penultimate things are not…
El evangelio de este domingo nos describe acontecimientos proféticos sobre el templo de Jerusalén y sobre los últimos tiempos. Nos habla de “signos de los tiempos” y nos da la clave para que aprendamos a interpretarlos y prepararnos para afrontar estos sucesos de los cuales estamos siendo testigos en nuestro tiempo actual. Estas señales que…
We have two ways of thinking about the saints, and it turns out that neither one of them is very helpful. We think of “Saints” with a capital “S”: St. Peter, St. Teresa of Avila, St. Augustine, the named heroes of the faith who made their mark in the world and left a legacy of…
Trouble and distress have come upon me, yet your commandments are my delight. The righteousness of your decrees is everlasting; grant me understanding, that I may live. Amen. Today’s scripture lessons present a unified whole, in lovely, surprising connections. The prophet Habakkuk is notable because he questions God. He asks, “O Lord, how long shall I…
A prayer by Jacqueline Bergan and S Marie Schwann says, “Lord my God, when Your loved spilled over into creation You thought of me. I am from love, of love, for love.”[i] What an awesome claim! When God first created, God did it with us in mind. In fact, the reason for creation itself was…
