GOSPEL MEDITATION
Today, the Lord invites us to “repentance for the forgiveness of
sins.” Level and straighten the road to the Lord. Salvation is God’s
work and is freely offered. Repentance, turning away from what
separates us from God, is our work for which God supplies the
grace. Our lives, like the liturgy, are words connected with actions.
We must say “Yes” to God in word and action. What are the moun-
tains, valleys and obstacles that prevent us from an encounter with
the Lord?
Hoy, el Señor nos invita a "arrepentirnos para el perdón de los pe-
cados". Nivelar y enderezar el camino hacia el Señor. La salvación es
el trabajo del Señor y es ofrecida libremente. El arrepentimiento, el
separarnos de aquello que nos separa de Dios, es nuestro trabajo
para el cual Dios nos provee de la gracia. Nuestras vidas, como la
liturgia, son palabras conectadas con acciones. Debemos decir "sí" a
Dios en palabras y acciones ¿Cuáles son las montañas, los valles y
obstáculos que nos impiden encontrarnos con el Señor?

SECOND SUNDAY OF ADVENT
“O people of Sion, behold, the Lord will come to save the
nations, and the Lord will make the glory of his voice heard
in the joy of your heart” (Isaiah 30:19,30). We are called to
hope in the Lord who will indeed make all things new. May
we be radiant signs of this hope as we witness our faith and
love through helping the least among us.
SEGUNDO DOMINGO DE ADVIENTO
”Pueblo de Sión, que vives en Jerusalén: ya no llorarás
más. El Señor tendrá compasión de ti al oír que gritas pidien-
do ayuda, y apenas te oiga, te responderá.” (Isaías
30:19,30). Estamos llamados a esperar en el Señor quien
renovará todas las cosas. Seamos signos radiantes de su es-
peranza mientras damos testimonio de nuestra fe y amor a
través del ayudar a los más pequeños entre nosotros.
IMMACULATE CONCEPTION MASS SCHEDULE:
TUESDAY, DEC. 8TH
7:30 A.M. & 7:00 P.M. BILINGUAL
The Immaculate Conception, according to the
teaching of the Catholic Church, was the con-
ception of the Blessed Virgin Mary in the
womb of her mother, Saint Anne, free from original sin by
virtue of the foreseen merits of her son Jesus Christ.
Purisima Concepcion, sostiene que Maria, madre de Jesus a
diferencia de todos los demas seres humanos no fue alcanza-
da por el pecado original sino que desde el primer instante de
su concepcion estuvo libre de todo pecado.
