Today the Church gathers around the world in the space between: just a few days ago, the Church celebrated the feast of the Ascension and today the church finds itself on the threshold of something new. It isn’t quite here yet. We are invited on the Seventh Sunday of Easter to enter a period of…
Today’s first reading and gospel form an unusual pair. They both come from the two-volume work attributed to Luke the Evangelist. One is from the end of the first volume, the book we call the Gospel according to Luke. The other is from the start of the second volume, the book we call the Acts of the Apostles….
Las palabras de Jesús que acabamos de escuchar del evangelio según San Juan están dentro de las últimas que dirige a sus discípulos antes de ser arrestado para luego ser llevado a su muerte en la cruz. Después de compartir la cena y lavarles los pies a sus discípulos, Jesús hace referencia a lo que…
Abide with me: fast falls the eventide;the darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide:when other helpers fail and comforts flee,help of the helpless, O abide with me. Abide with Me is a familiar hymn that Henry Francis Lyte penned while battling tuberculosis. What a thrilling prayer request: for God to abide with us always, and even more…
¡Aleluya! ¡Cristo ha resucitado! Seguimos celebrando la Pascua de Resurrección. Seguimos celebrando que la muerte no pudo con nuestro Salvador. Seguimos celebrando que Jesús venció la muerte. Seguimos celebrando que, aunque pasamos por una Cuaresma de ayuno y contemplación, ahora es tiempo de celebración y gozo. Como escuchamos del libro de los Hechos de los…
Unfortunately, some of us feel that if we don’t check our smartphones every few minutes, we will miss out on something crucial, maybe the event of the year or the e-mail that will change the course of our lives. And it is even more embarrassing when we don’t seem to be aware that we are…
El cuarto domingo de Pascua es también conocido como el domingo del Buen Pastor dado que el Salmo 23 y el evangelio según San Juan utilizan la metáfora del Mesías como pastor del mundo. Es bueno entonces identificar en qué manera Jesús es un Pastor, y qué significa que Jesús sea nuestro Buen Pastor. El…
Alleluia! Christ is risen! Today’s gospel text uses an image that may be lost on many of us, an image that we may know from childhood stories — but not firsthand experience. Jesus, living in the first century, talking to people who know livestock and agriculture in their hearts and bones, tells his disciples, his…
Se dice que, si algo luce, o suena demasiado bueno, entonces es demasiado bueno, lo cual implica que debemos dudar de ello. La resurrección parece demasiado buena, y además imposible desde nuestro punto de vista humano, y por tanto nos cuesta el poder entenderla y hasta creer en ella. El evangelio de hoy reconoce eso….
The language of scripture is, for the most part, a graceful and formal language. There’s that one place in Paul’s epistles where he uses a word we don’t use in polite company. There is more than one instance of whining, of rudeness, even of insult. Of course, there are the stories of things we don’t…
