  • Full of Grace and Truth, Christmas 1 – 2008

    “Fast away the old year passes.” So goes the last verse of the old Christmas carol, “Deck the Halls.” For Christians, our celebration of Christmas is but three days old. We have nine more days, and would that we could have all the world join in; some will, but for many, once the tree is…

  • Navidad (II) – 2008

    Para los cristianos la Navidad es una fiesta de extraordinaria importancia. Celebramos en ella el nacimiento de Jesús, nuestro Salvador. Hoy día ignoramos cuándo nació Jesús. Los evangelistas que narran la infancia de Jesús, no describen un informe histórico exacto tal como ser haría hoy. Sólo pretendieron enmarcar a su personaje en una época y…

  • Prologues, Christmas Day (III) – 2008

    One of the readings suggested for Christmas Day is from the first chapter of Hebrews. It starts out with this introduction: “In many and various ways God spoke of old to our fathers by the prophets; but in these last days he has spoken to us by a Son, whom he appointed the heir of…

  • Freedom of Choice, Advent 4 (B) – 2008

    Of today’s gospel lesson, Frederick Buechner, in his book Peculiar Treaures, wrote: “She struck the angel Gabriel as hardly old enough to have a child at all, let alone this child, but he’d been entrusted with a message to give her and he gave it. He told her what the child was to be named,…

  • Adviento 4 (B) – 2008

    El Evangelio de hoy nos presenta el pasaje de la anunciación de María. En el Antiguo Testamento hay muchas historias paarecidas a ésta anunciando elnacimiento de algún personaje importante. Por ejemplo, tenemos el nacimiento de Isaac (Gn 21, 5; 17,17), el nacimiento de Esaú y Jacob (Gn 25,21-26) el de José (Gn 30, 22-24), el…

  • Adviento 3 (B) – 2008

    “Estad siempre alegres en el Señor; os lo repito, estad alegres. Que vuestra bondad sea conocida de todos los hombres. El Señor está cerca” (Flp 4,4-5). Estas bellas palabras del apóstol San Pablo a los filipenses hacen eco a las de hoy. “Estad siempre contentos”. Tradicionalmente este domingo se conocía en el misal romano como…

  • A Sunday School Teacher in Kansas…, Advent 3 (B) – 2008

    A Sunday school teacher in Kansas reports this conversation in her class: “If I sold my house and my car, had a big garage sale and gave all my money to the church, would that get me into Heaven?” she asked the children in her Sunday school class. “No!” the children all answered. “If I…

  • Adviento 2 (B) – 2008

    Las lecturas de los domingos pasados nos recordaron cuán fugaz es la vida y cuán cierto es nuestro fin. También nos recordaron que el mundo que nos rodea ha de pasar. Las lecturas de este domingo ya no hablan del fin de los tiempos sino de la necesidad de un mesías. Cuando llegue el mesías,…

  • We Encounter Two Voices, Advent 2 (B) – 2008

    We encounter two voices crying out from the wilderness on this Second Sunday of Advent. The prophet Isaiah calls, “Comfort, O Comfort My People,” and John the Baptist shouts, “Prepare the Way of the Lord.” These stories are joined by more than the prophetic voice. In both our gospel reading and the reading from Isaiah,…

  • Adviento 1 (B) – 2008

    ¡Feliz año nuevo! Algunos se preguntarán sobre el porqué de este saludo, y es que hoy iniciamos un año nuevo. No se trata del año secular que regula nuestras actividades diarias en la sociedad, sino de una año nuevo litúrgico. El año litúrgico regula nuestras actividades diarias en el camino de la salvación hacia la…
