Year of Mercy
Año de Misericordia
Thirty-third Sunday in Ordinary Time
As this Jubilee Year of Mercy comes to
an end, Jesus’ first disciples ask what every
age seems to wonder about the end of the
world: “Teacher, when will this happen?
What sign will there be?” (Luke 21:7). But
instead of what we’d like to know, Jesus
tells us what we need to know. Don’t be
terrified by natural disasters, human
violence, personal sufferings. Because
God’s mercy abounds, all is grace. “It will
lead to your giving testimony” (21:13). So
Malachi promises “the sun of justice with its
healing rays” (Malachi 3:20a); and Jesus
describes how we should welcome the end:
“Stand erect and raise your heads, because
your redemption is at hand” (Gospel
Acclamation, Luke 21:28). Rather than
worrying about ourselves and the future’s
perils, both Jesus’ gospel and Pope
Francis’ Jubilee Year of Mercy bid us go
forth to spend our lives proclaiming God’s
promise of boundless mercy, but also
translating God’s mercy into living deeds of
unfailing compassion and enduring comfort.
—Peter Scagnelli,
33 Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario
Al ir concluyendo este Año Jubilar de la
Misericordia, los primeros discípulos de
Jesús preguntan lo que en cada época
parece preguntarse acerca del fin del mundo:
“Maestro, ¿cuándo va a ser eso?” (Lucas
21:7). Pero en lugar de lo que nos gustaría
saber, Jesús nos dice lo que necesitamos
conocer. No se preocupen por desastres
naturales, la violencia de las personas, el
sufrimiento humano. Debido a la abundante
misericordia de Dios, todo es gracia. “Esto
les servirá para dar testimonio de
mí” (21:13). El profeta Malaquías promete
que “brillará el sol de justicia, que les traerá
la salvación en sus rayos” (Malaquías 3:20a)
y, Jesús describe cómo debemos recibir el
fin “Levántense, alcen la cabeza; se acerca
su liberación” (21:28). En lugar de estarnos
preocupando por nosotros mismos y los
riesgos del futuro, tanto el Evangelio de
Jesús como el Año Jubilar de la Misericordia
convocado por el Papa Francisco nos invitan
a avanzar pasando nuestra vida
proclamando la promesa de la abundante
misericordia de Dios e interpretándola en
obras vivas de compasión inagotable y
consolación renovada.

DID YOU KNOW?
Bullying prevention starts at home
From cyberbullying to name-calling and exclusion,
bullying can affect people of every age, especially kids
and teens in school. Their peers can be cruel, so it’s
important to talk about how to handle bullies,
especially before a situation escalates. One way to stop
the cycle of bullying in its tracks, is to teach kids to
speak kindly to others and to treat everyone around
them with respect. For more information, please visit
https://www.faithandsafety.org/bullying.
¿SABÍA USTED?
La prevención del “bullying” comienza en casa
Desde el acoso cibernético, poner apodos y la
exclusión, el acoso o “bullying” puede afectar a las
personas de todas las edades, especialmente a niños y
adolescentes que asisten a la escuela. Sus compañeros
pueden ser crueles, de manera que es importante
platicar con ellos sobre cómo manejar a los
acosadores, especialmente antes que la situación
escale. Una manera de detener el ciclo de acoso es
enseñar a los niños a hablar con gentileza con otros y
a tratar con respeto a todos a su alrededor. Para más
información, por favor visite https://
