Casi todos sabemos ya que la Cuaresma es un tiempo para reflexionar sobre nuestra vida y sobre nuestra relación con Cristo, y, al llegar el Domingo de Pascua, renovamos nuestra alegría y la esperanza en la promesa de Cristo Resucitado. La muerte y resurrección de Jesús nos libera del pecado original y afianza nuestra esperanza en que, siendo partícipes de la gracia de Dios, un día nos reuniremos con Cristo y con nuestros seres queridos en el cielo. Esa es la Pascua, en breve.

Most of us know that we reflect on ourselves and our relationship with Christ during Lent.  Then, on Easter Sunday, we take renewed hope and joy in the promise of the Risen Christ.  Through Jesus’ death and resurrection we have been freed from original sin and have firm hope that in cooperating with God’s grace we will one day join with Christ, and all those we have loved, in heaven.  That’s Easter in a nutshell.

This morning I joined the students at St. Augustine Catholic High School as they gathered in their school’s courtyard and thinking of the recent, devasting shootings in schools and elsewhere, prayed the rosary together.

Leyendo en internet, encontré un blog publicado por el Centro Católico St. Mary, en College Station, Texas. Gran parte de su ministerio está enfocado en estudiantes universitarios, pero indudablemente podría servir a muchos otros. La autora del blog es Madeline Hill.

I was looking around the internet, and I came across a blog put out by St. Mary’s Catholic Center in College Station, Texas. Much of their ministry is focused on college students, but I thought it could easily apply to many others. The blog was written by Madeline Hill.
