April 5, 2026 - Easter Sunday
Dear Sisters and Brothers,
On Easter Sunday, the Church proclaims with joy what stands at the very heart of Christian faith: Christ is risen. The empty tomb is not simply an event of the past, but a living reality that transforms everything. The Gospel invites us to stand with Mary Magdalene at the tomb, to run with Peter and the beloved disciple, and to encounter the mystery that death has been defeated. The Gospel from John (20:1–9) begins in darkness. Mary Magdalene comes to the tomb “while it was still dark,” a powerful symbol of the confusion and grief that often cloud our lives. She is searching for the body of Jesus Christ, but instead finds the stone rolled away. Her first reaction is not faith, but fear: “They have taken the Lord from the tomb.” This honest human response reminds us that resurrection is not immediately obvious—it must be discovered, often through uncertainty.
Peter and the beloved disciple run to the tomb. Their race reflects the urgency of the moment: something extraordinary has happened. The beloved disciple arrives first but waits; Peter enters and sees the burial cloths. Then the other disciple enters, “and he saw and believed.” This quiet moment is profound. There is no angelic proclamation here, no dramatic appearance—only the subtle signs of absence. The tomb is empty, but it is precisely this emptiness that becomes the first sign of hope. Easter faith often begins in this same way. It is not always born out of dramatic experiences, but through reflection on signs: moments of grace, unexpected peace, the quiet persistence of hope when everything seems lost. Like the disciples, we are invited to “see and believe,” even when we do not yet fully understand.
Abril 5, Domingo de Pascua
Queridos hermanos y hermanas:
En el Domingo de Pascua, la Iglesia proclama con alegría lo que está en el corazón mismo de la fe cristiana: Cristo ha resucitado. El sepulcro vacío no es simplemente un acontecimiento del pasado, sino una realidad viva que lo transforma todo. El Evangelio nos invita a estar con María Magdalena en el sepulcro, a correr con Pedro y el discípulo amado, y a encontrarnos con el misterio de que la muerte ha sido vencida. El Evangelio de Juan (20, 1–9) comienza en la oscuridad. María Magdalena va al sepulcro “cuando todavía estaba oscuro”, un símbolo poderoso de la confusión y el dolor que a menudo nublan nuestras vidas. Ella busca el cuerpo de Jesucristo, pero en cambio encuentra la piedra removida. Su primera reacción no es fe, sino temor: “Se han llevado al Señor del sepulcro.” Esta respuesta humana y sincera nos recuerda que la resurrección no es inmediatamente evidente: debe descubrirse, muchas veces en medio de la incertidumbre.
Pedro y el discípulo amado corren hacia el sepulcro. Su carrera refleja la urgencia del momento: algo extraordinario ha sucedido. El discípulo amado llega primero, pero espera; Pedro entra y ve los lienzos. Luego entra el otro discípulo, “y vio y creyó.” Este momento silencioso es profundo. No hay aquí proclamaciones angélicas ni apariciones dramáticas—solo los signos sutiles de la ausencia. El sepulcro está vacío, pero es precisamente este vacío el que se convierte en el primer signo de esperanza. La fe pascual a menudo comienza de la misma manera. No siempre nace de experiencias extraordinarias, sino de la reflexión sobre signos: momentos de gracia, una paz inesperada, la persistencia silenciosa de la esperanza cuando todo parece perdido. Como los discípulos, somos invitados a “ver y creer”, incluso cuando todavía no comprendemos completamente.

“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.
