February 8, 2026 - Fifth Sunday of Ordinary Time
Dear Sisters and Brothers,
In today’s Gospel, Jesus tells his disciples, “You are the salt of the earth… You are the light of the world.” These are not compliments so much as callings. Salt only matters when it is used, and light only fulfills its purpose when it shines outward. Discipleship, Jesus reminds us, is never meant to be hidden or kept private.
The first reading from Isaiah helps us understand what this looks like in real life. True faith is not only about prayer or ritual, but about concrete acts of love: feeding the hungry, sheltering the oppressed, and caring for those in need. When we live this way, Isaiah says, “your light shall break forth like the dawn.” Our faith becomes visible through compassion.
Febrero 8th,Quinto domingo del Tiempo Ordinario
Queridos hermanos y hermanas:
En el Evangelio de hoy, Jesús dice a sus discípulos: «Ustedes son la sal de la tierra… Ustedes son la luz del mundo». Estas palabras no son tanto un elogio como un llamado. La sal solo importa cuando se usa, y la luz solo cumple su propósito cuando brilla hacia afuera. El discipulado, nos recuerda Jesús, nunca está destinado a esconderse ni a mantenerse en privado.
La primera lectura del profeta Isaías nos ayuda a comprender cómo se vive esto en la vida real. La fe verdadera no se trata solo de la oración o del ritual, sino de actos concretos de amor: alimentar al hambriento, dar refugio al oprimido y cuidar a quienes están en necesidad. Cuando vivimos de esta manera, dice Isaías, «tu luz surgirá como la aurora». Nuestra fe se hace visible a través de la compasión.

“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.
