December 21, 2025 - Fourth Sunday of Advent
Dear Sisters and Brothers,
As Advent draws to its quiet, expectant close, the Church invites us to stand beside Joseph. The Gospel for the Fourth Sunday of Advent does not place us at the manger yet, nor among the angels singing in the night sky. Instead, it brings us into the inner world of a just man wrestling with confusion, fear, and faith. Matthew tells us that Mary is found to be with child “through the Holy Spirit.” For Joseph, these words come before understanding. He knows only that the woman he loves is pregnant, and the child is not his. His world collapses silently. Scripture does not describe anger or accusation; instead, it reveals something far more striking—mercy. Joseph resolves to divorce Mary quietly, sparing her shame and danger. Even in heartbreak, he chooses compassion.
21 de diciembre de 2025 - Cuartro Domingo de Adviento
Quieridos hermanos y hermanas:
Mientras el Adviento llega a su cierre silencioso y lleno de esperanza, la Iglesia nos invita a colocarnos junto a José. El Evangelio del Cuarto Domingo de Adviento aún no nos sitúa ante el pesebre, ni entre los ángeles que cantan en el cielo nocturno. Más bien, nos introduce en el mundo interior de un hombre justo que lucha con la confusión, el miedo y la fe. Mateo nos dice que María se encuentra encinta “por obra del Espíritu Santo”. Para José, estas palabras llegan antes de la comprensión. Él solo sabe que la mujer que ama está embarazada y que el niño no es suyo. Su mundo se derrumba en silencio. La Escritura no describe ira ni acusación; en cambio, revela algo mucho más sorprendente: misericordia. José decide repudiar a María en secreto, para evitarle la vergüenza y el peligro. Incluso en medio del dolor, elige 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.
