Oh San Lorenzo, generoso servidor de la Iglesia y diácono del pueblo de Dios, patron amoroso de nuestra parroquia, inspira en nuestros corazones el amor total y valiente por Cristo. Fortalecenos e intercede para que nosotros también demos nuestras vidas, poco a poco, hacia el avance de la misón de la Iglesia y la salud espiritual de nuestra parroquia. Ayúdanos a no temer el costo del disipulado, sino enfocarnos con fe en los gloriosos efectos de tu gracia en nuestras vidas. ¡San Lorenzo, ruega por nosotros!

O St. Laurence, generous servant of the Church and deacon of God’s people, most loving patron of our parish, inspire our hearts with your total and courageous love for Christ. En-courage us, and intercede that we too give away our lives, little by little, toward the advancement of the Church’s mis-sion and the spiritual health of our parish. Help us not to fear the cost of discipleship, but focus with faith on the glorious effects of your grace in our lives. St. Laurence, pray for us!

Readings for Today, The Most Holy Trinity

Reading 1, Ex 34:4b–6, 8–9 Early in the morning Moses went up Mount Sinai as the LORD had commanded him, taking along the two stone tablets. Having come down in a cloud, the LORD stood with Moses there and proclaimed his name, “LORD.” Thus the LORD passed before him and cried out, “The LORD, the LORD, a merciful and gracious God, slow to anger and rich in kindness and fidelity.” Moses at once bowed down to the ground in worship. Then he said, “If I find favor with you, O LORD, do come along in our company. This is indeed a stiff-necked people; yet pardon our wickedness and sins, and receive us as your own.” Responsorial Psalm: Glory and praise for ever! Blessed are you, O Lord, the God of our fathers, praiseworthy and exalted above all forever; And blessed is your holy and glorious name, praiseworthy and exalted above all for all ages. R Blessed are you in the temple of your holy glory, praiseworthy and glorious above all forever. R Blessed are you on the throne of your kingdom, praiseworthy and exalted above all forever. R Blessed are you who look into the depths from your throne upon the cherubim, praiseworthy and exalted above all forever. R Reading 2, 2 Cor 13:11–13 Brothers and sisters, rejoice. Mend your ways, encourage one another, agree with one another, live in peace, and the God of love and peace will be with you. Greet one another with a holy kiss. All the holy ones greet you. The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with all of you. Gospel, Jn 3:16–18 God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him might not perish but might have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him will not be condemned, but whoever does not believe has already been condemned, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.

Primera lectura, Ex 34, 4b–6. 8–9 En aquellos días, Moisés subió de madrugada al monte Sinaí, llevando en la mano las dos tablas de piedra, como le había mandado el Señor. El Señor descendió en una nube y se le hizo presente. Moisés pronunció entonces el nombre del Señor, y el Señor, pasando delante de él, proclamó: “Yo soy el Señor, el Señor Dios, compasivo y clemente, paciente, misericordioso y fiel”. Al instante, Moisés se postró en tierra y lo adoró, diciendo: “Si de veras he hallado gracia a tus ojos, dígnate venir ahora con no-sotros, aunque este pueblo sea de cabeza dura; perdona nuestras iniquidades y pecados, y tómanos como cosa tuya”. Salmo Responsorial: Bendito seas, Señor, para siempre. Bendito seas, Señor, Dios de nuestros padres: Bendito tu nombre santo y glorioso. R Bendito seas en el templo santo y glorioso. Bendito seas en el trono de tu reino. R Bendito eres tú, Señor, que penetras con tu mirada los abismos y te sientas en un trono rodeado de querubines. Bendito seas, Señor, en la bóveda del cielo. R Segunda lectura, 2 Cor 13, 11–13 Hermanos: Estén alegres, trabajen por su perfección, anímense mutuamente, vivan en paz y armonía. Y el Dios del amor y de la paz estará con ustedes. Salúdense los unos a los otros con el saludo de paz. Los saludan todos los fieles. La gracia de nuestro Señor Jesucristo, el amor del Padre y la comunión del Espíritu Santo estén siempre con ustedes. Evangelio, Jn 3, 16–18 “Tanto amó Dios al mundo, que le entregó a su Hijo único, para que todo el que crea en él no perezca, sino que tenga la vida eterna. Porque Dios no envió a su Hijo para condenar al mundo, sino para que el mundo se salvara por él. El que cree en él no será conde-nado; pero el que no cree ya está condenado, por no haber creído en el Hijo único de Dios”.
