A MESSAGE FROM FR. RAFAEL
Let us Go Out to Meet the Lord!
Let us Go Out to Meet the Lord!
-
¡Salgamos al encuentro del Señor!
In this coming Sunday's Gospel, Jesus invites us to remain watchful and ready to go out to meet Him. Like the wise virgins, we are called to keep the lamps of our faith burning brightly, nourished by love, hope, and good works. The Lord is coming to meet us! We must be ready to welcome Him with joy and enter with Him into the heavenly banquet. I warmly invite you and your family to join us as one Church in celebrating the 100th Anniversary of the Archdiocese of San Antonio, together with our Archbishop, the Apostolic Nuncio, priests, religious, and faithful from throughout the Archdiocese. This will be a beautiful celebration of faith, communion, and hope. As one family, let us go out to meet the Lord, trusting that He also comes to meet us and lead us into His eternal banquet. Let us continue walking together, with our lamps burning brightly and our hearts ready to welcome the Lord!
En el Evangelio de este proximo domingo, Jesús nos invita a permanecer vigilantes y preparados para salir a su encuentro. Como las vírgenes prudentes, estamos llamados a mantener encendida la lámpara de nuestra fe, alimentada por el amor, la esperanza y las buenas obras. ¡El Señor viene a nuestro encuentro! Debemos estar preparados para recibirlo con alegría y entrar con Él al banquete celestial. Los invito a unirse como una sola Iglesia para celebrar el 100 Aniversario de la Arquidiócesis de San Antonio, junto con nuestro Arzobispo, el Nuncio Apostólico, sacerdotes, religiosos y fieles de toda la Arquidiócesis. Será una hermosa celebración de fe, comunión y esperanza. Como una sola familia, salgamos al encuentro del Señor, confiando en que Él también sale a nuestro encuentro para guiarnos hacia su banquete eterno. ¡Sigamos caminando juntos, con nuestras lámparas encendidas y nuestros corazones preparados para recibir al Señor!
- Adsum, Totus Tuus!
