Bienaventuranzas Who are the blessed ones? Today’s message, the Beatitudes, is one of the most provocative pages of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The rich, the proud, the powerful feel self-satisfied: they have what they want, they feel happy. But they are closed in on themselves and everything they have. And that apparent happiness will turn into sadness and pain. Jesus, on the other hand, comes to announce good news for those who, in the eyes of the world, are unhappy. He d

SEGUNDO DOMINGO DE ADVIENTO Prepare the way of the Lord John the Baptist is undoubtedly one of the most representative characters of the Advent season. It was up to him to prepare the way in the public life of Jesus. When the time was right, he began to prepare the way for the proclamation of the Good News. “A shoot shall sprout from the stump of Jesse”, and it was necessary to wait for it in a dignified manner.
