March 8, 2026 - Third Sunday of Lent
Dear Sisters and Brothers,
The readings for the Third Sunday of Lent, Year A, draw us into the powerful biblical image of thirst—physical thirst, spiritual thirst, and the deep human longing for God. In the first reading from the book Exodus 17:3–7), the Israelites grumble in the desert. Having been freed from slavery, they now fear death by thirst. “Why did you ever make us leave Egypt?” they cry. Their thirst becomes accusation. Their hardship becomes doubt. They question not only Moses—but God Himself.
How familiar this sounds. When life feels dry—when prayers seem unanswered, when burdens increase, when faith does not bring immediate comfort—we too may ask: “Is the Lord in our midst or not?” Yet God responds not with anger but with abundance. Water flows from the rock. Grace flows where complaint had reigned.
March 8, Tercer Domingo de Cuaresma
Queridos hermanos y hermanas:
Las lecturas del Tercer Domingo de Cuaresma, nos introducen en la poderosa imagen bíblica de la sed: la sed física, la sed espiritual y el profundo anhelo humano de Dios. En la primera lectura del libro del Éxodo (17,3–7), los israelitas murmuran en el desierto. Después de haber sido liberados de la esclavitud, ahora temen morir de sed. «¿Por qué nos hiciste salir de Egipto?», claman. Su sed se convierte en acusación. Su sufrimiento se transforma en duda. Cuestionan no solo a Moisés, sino a Dios mismo. Qué familiar nos resulta esto. Cuando la vida se siente árida —cuando las oraciones parecen no tener respuesta, cuando las cargas aumentan, cuando la fe no trae consuelo inmediato— también nosotros podemos preguntarnos: «¿Está el Señor en medio de nosotros o no?» Sin embargo, Dios responde no con enojo, sino con abundancia. Del peñasco brota agua. La gracia fluye donde antes reinaba la queja.
El Evangelio según san Juan (4,5–42) nos lleva a otra escena de sed, esta vez en el pozo de Jacob. Allí, Jesucristo se encuentra con una mujer samaritana. Es el mediodía, la hora más calurosa del día. Ella viene sola —quizá aislada, quizá avergonzada—. Viene por agua común. Se va transformada. «Dame de beber», le dice Jesús. En esta sencilla petición, derriba barreras: judío y samaritana, hombre y mujer, maestro justo y pecadora con una vida complicada. Comienza con la sed física, pero pronto pasa a algo más profundo: «El que beba del agua que yo le daré no tendrá sed jamás».

“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.
