En muy poco tiempo, comenzaremos el Tiempo de Cuaresma.  A menudo, en el ajetreo de nuestras vidas, este tiempo santo de Cuaresma puede arrastrarse sobre nosotros y, de repente, es el Miércoles de Ceniza, y hemos hecho poco o nada para prepararnos para esta temporada penitencial.   

In just a very short time, we will be beginning the season of Lent. Often, in the busyness of our lives, this holy season of Lent can creep up on us. All of a sudden it is Ash Wednesday, and we have done little to nothing to prepare for this penitential season.

As we continue on this Jubilee Year of Hope, February is the month of the Holy Family and Pope Francis has urged that “every family should look to the icon of the Holy Family of Nazareth.” (Amoris laetitia, 30)

Mientras continuamos en este Año Jubilar de la Esperanza, febrero es el mes de la Sagrada Familia y el Papa Francisco decía que: “Ante cada familia se presenta el icono de la familia de Nazaret” (Amoris laetitia, 30)

Happy New Year! As we begin 2025, many of us are making our traditional new year resolutions on how we might live our lives better, develop healthier habits, and so on.

This is also a great opportunity to consider spiritual new year resolutions, especially as we begin the Jubilee Year of Hope. There are many spiritual resolutions we might consider, but I would like to suggest three that will help us to grow in being witnesses of joy and hope in our world.
