[RCL] Exodus 14:10-31; 15:20-21; Psalm 114; Romans 6:3-11; Luke 24:1-12 The Great Vigil of Easter starts with death. Those who are keeping the first holy vigil in Christian history have had only one day to prepare for it; they have had no time to get used to the idea that their beloved is dying, as…
[RCL] Isaiah 52:13-53:12; Psalm 22; Hebrews 10:16-25 or Hebrews 4:14-16; 5:7-9; John 18:1-19:42 A blessed Good Friday to you, as we remember the death of Jesus, the one who loved us to the end. Good Friday brings us face to face with something we spend our lives trying to avoid: Death. On either end of…
[RCL] Exodus 12:1-4, (5-10), 11-14; Psalm 116:1, 10-17; 1 Corinthians 11:23-26; John 13:1-17, 31b-35 It is not as common an experience in North America, but perhaps you have had, at some point or place in your life, the distinctive experience of standing on the platform of a train station, either as the one who is…
[RCL] Isaiah 50:4-9a; Psalm 70; Hebrews 12:1-3; John 13:21-32 Hebrews is something of an anomaly among New Testament writings. It tells of the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus, but it’s not a Gospel. It appears to be written to a particular community of faith, but it’s not a letter in the traditional sense. It…
[RCL] Isaiah 49:1-7; Psalm 71:1-14; 1 Corinthians 1:18-31; John 12:20-36 Conflict, confrontation, and choices amid feelings, hopes, and fears. What’s happening on this Tuesday of Holy Week? What have we seen and what will we witness on this part of our journey? How does it speak to us today? We are called to remember that…
[RCL] Isaiah 42:1-9; Psalm 36:5-11; Hebrews 9:11-15; John 12:1-11 In today’s gospel passage, we encounter the Bethany family: siblings Martha, Mary, and Lazarus. We have met Martha and Mary before, in the well-known passage from Luke’s gospel (Luke 10:38-42) when Jesus and his disciples rest on the road to Jerusalem in the home of sisters…
[RCL] Isaiah 50:4-9a; Psalm 31:9-16; Philippians 2:5-11; Luke 22:14-23:56 or Luke 23:1-49 Palm Sunday is an invitation of the most extreme kind. If you picture a polite and proper written invitation to an important event, it’s usually on pretty, white paper and arrives quietly in your mailbox with a diffident request for an RSVP. Palm…
[RCL] Isaiah 43:16-21; Psalm 126; Philippians 3:4b-14; John 12:1-8 Before we dig into our gospel story today, let’s go back a few chapters. Let’s go back and remember the death of Lazarus. And remember his sisters’ grief. When Jesus finally makes it back to Bethany to see about this death, he is met with an…
LCR: Isaías 43:16-21; Salmo 126; Filipenses 3:4b-14; San Juan 12:1–8. Si tuviéramos que elegir solamente dos palabras para resumir el mensaje que la Sagrada Escritura no propone para meditar en este quinto domingo de cuaresma, podríamos decir que son: Restauración y Renovación. Aunque parecen sinónimos, los procesos de restaurar y renovar producen al final resultados…
LCR: Josué 5:9–12; Salmo 32; 2 Corintios 5:16–21; San Lucas 15:1–3,11b–32 La parábola del Padre misericordioso, tradicionalmente conocida como “El hijo pródigo”, es una de las más predicadas a lo largo de la historia de la Iglesia y uno de los textos más bellos del evangelio de san Lucas. Por su contenido, es también una…
