Mis queridos amigos, ¿Recuerdan esas Navidades cuando eran niños y no recibían el regalo que querían?

November 27th – I Sunday of Advent

My Dear Friends, “Without silence, God disappears in the noise. And this noise becomes all the more obsessive because God is absent. Unless the world rediscovers silence, it is lost.

My Dear Friends, Today we bring our liturgical year to a close with the Solemnity of Christ the King. The primary question I always ask the faithful on this day is this: “Does Christ reign in your heart?” Not part of it, not on certain days of the week, but does he completely reign in …
