December 28, 2025 - Christmas- Holy Family 2025
Dear Sisters and Brothers! A Blessed and Joyful Christmas to You All!!!
On behalf of our parish priests and staff, I extend to you and your loved ones heartfelt Christmas wishes. May this holy season fill your homes with peace, your hearts with hope, and your lives with the quiet joy that comes from knowing God is with us. Merry Christmas!
Today, we celebrate the great mystery at the heart of our faith: the Word became flesh and dwelt among us. Christmas proclaims that God is not distant or removed from our human experience. He enters it fully. He comes as a child—fragile, dependent, and entrusted to human love. The manger reveals who God is and how God works. He does not force His way into the world. He waits to be welcomed. He is born into simplicity, surrounded not by privilege, but by faith. In Jesus, God embraces our joys and struggles, our hopes and our wounds. Christmas speaks directly to our lives today. Many hearts rejoice; others ache. Some gather with family; others feel absence or loss. The good news of Christmas is that God enters all of it. No darkness is too deep, no situation too broken, no heart too weary for His light.
28 de diciembre de 2025 - Navidad - Sagrada Familia
¡Queridos hermanos y hermanas! ¡Una Navidad bendecida y llena de alegría para todos!!!
En nombre de nuestros sacerdotes y del personal parroquial, les extiendo a ustedes y a sus seres queridos mis más sinceros deseos de Navidad. Que esta santa temporada llene sus hogares de paz, sus corazones de esperanza y sus vidas de la serena alegría que nace de saber que Dios está con nosotros. ¡Feliz Navidad!
Hoy celebramos el gran misterio que está en el corazón de nuestra fe: el Verbo se hizo carne y habitó entre nosotros. La Navidad proclama que Dios no es distante ni ajeno a nuestra experiencia humana. Él entra plenamente en ella. Viene como un niño—frágil, dependiente y confiado al amor humano. El pesebre nos revela quién es Dios y cómo actúa. No se impone al mundo. Espera ser acogido. Nace en la sencillez, rodeado no de privilegios, sino de fe. En Jesús, Dios abraza nuestras alegrías y luchas, nuestras esperanzas y nuestras heridas. La Navidad habla directamente a nuestras vidas hoy. Muchos corazones se alegran; otros sufren. Algunos se reúnen con su familia; otros sienten la ausencia o la pérdida. La buena noticia de la Navidad es que Dios entra en todo ello. Ninguna oscuridad es demasiado profunda, ninguna situación demasiado rota, ningún corazón demasiado cansado para su luz.

“We are all born originals, some in life become photocopies.”
Carlo Acutis was born in London, Britain, on May 3, 1991, to Italian parents, Carlo and Antonia Salzano, who were in the City for work. He was baptized on May 18 at Our Lady of Dolours Church in London. In September 1991, the family returned to Milan. At the age of four, his parents enrolled him in kindergarten, which he attended with great enthusiasm. When the time came for compulsory schooling, he was enrolled at the San Carlo Institute in Milan, a well-known private school. After three months, he was transferred to elementary school at the Tommaseo Institute of the Marcelline Sisters, because it was closer to his home. On June 16, 1998, he received his First Communion, earlier than his usual age, thanks to special permission from his spiritual director, Fr Ilio Carrai, and Archbishop Pasquale Macchi. The celebration took place in the Monastery of the cloistered Romite nuns of the Order of St. Ambrose ad Nemus in Bemaga di Perego (Lecco). The Sacrament of Confirmation, on May 24, 2003, was administered to him in the church of Santa Maria Segreta, by Monsignor Luigi Testore, former secretary of Cardinal Carlo Maria Martini and parish priest of San Marco in Milan.

'Todos nacemos originales, algunos en la vida se convierten en fotocopias'
Carlo Acutis nació en Londres, Gran Bretaña, el 3 de mayo de 1991, de padres italianos, Carlo y Antonia Salzano, que estaban en la City por motivos de trabajo. Fue bautizado el 18 de mayo en la iglesia de Nuestra Señora de los Dolores de Londres. En septiembre de 1991, la familia regresó a Milán. A los cuatro años, sus padres le inscriben en la guardería, a la que asiste con gran entusiasmo. Cuando llegó el momento de la escolarización obligatoria, lo matricularon en el Instituto San Carlo de Milán, una conocida escuela pública. Al cabo de tres meses, fue trasladado a la escuela primaria del Instituto Tommaseo de las Hermanas Marcelinas, por estar más cerca de su casa. El 16 de junio de 1998 recibió la Primera Comunión, antes de su edad habitual, gracias a un permiso especial de su director espiritual, el padre Ilio Carrai, y del arzobispo Pasquale Macchi. La celebración tuvo lugar en el monasterio de las monjas de clausura romitas dell'Ordine di Sant'Ambrogio ad Nemus, en Bemaga di Perego (Lecco). El sacramento de la Confirmación, el 24 de mayo de 2003, le fue administrado en la iglesia de Santa Maria Segreta, por monseñor Luigi Testore, antiguo secretario del cardenal Carlo Maria Martini y párroco de San Marco en Milán.
