Second Reading: Galatians 3:26–29 We are children of God in Christ Jesus.
Gospel: Luke 9:18–24 Take up the cross.
We find Jesus in today’s Gospel taking the question of who his disciples think he is and turning it around, telling us
who we must be. If we are to follow him, we must be willing to do as he did, that is, take up our cross each and every
day. As we reflect on these readings today, perhaps the question for us is how we lose our life in order to save it.

Estamos ya en el duodécimo domingo del tiempo ordinario. Cristo nos invita a admitir que somos los discípulos

diario peregrinar.
Primera lectura: Zacarías 12, 10-11. 13, 1
El profeta Zacarías anuncia el perdón de Dios y un espíritu de gracias sobre todo los habitantes de Jerusalén. El
“traspasado”, es figura de Cristo en su Pasión. Esta lectura
nos invita a aceptar con resignación la cruz de cada día.

Evangelio:Lucas 9, 18-24

disponibilidad absoluta.

Señor Jesús, también hoy nos preguntas a nosotros: ¿quién
dicen que soy yo? O mejor ¿quién soy para ustedes? En
medio de un mundo que prefiere ídolos y promesas de
engaño
Te confesamos Hijo de Dios y único salvador del hombre.
¿A quién otro podemos seguir, Señor, que no nos defraude?
Solamente tú tienes palabras y hechos de vida eterna.
Te creemos resucitado y vivo en el mundo, hoy como
ayer, y estamos seguros: vives en nosotros por medio
de tu Espíritu. Concédenos conocerte a fondo por la fe,
la amistad y la oración; y haz que, queriendo a nuestros
hermanos, nos entreguemos a la fascinante tarea de amarte
apasionadamente.
Amén.

Pablo, España, 1993, p. 536)

Tiempo Ordinario Ciclo C.
12o. Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario
Entrada
Estamos ya en el duodécimo domingo del tiempo ordinario. Cristo nos invita a admitir que somos los discípulos
de un Mesías doliente. Nos invita, a tomar nuestra cruz
cada día y seguir detrás de Él. En esta celebración el Señor quiere derramar su gracia para ayudarnos en nuestro
diario peregrinar.
Primera lectura: Zacarías 12, 10-11. 13, 1
El profeta Zacarías anuncia el perdón de Dios y un espíritu de gracias sobre todo los habitantes de Jerusalén. El
“traspasado”, es figura de Cristo en su Pasión. Esta lectura
nos invita a aceptar con resignación la cruz de cada día.
Salmo Responsorial: Salmo 62, 2. 3-4. 5-6. 8-9
Mi alma está sedienta de ti, Señor, Dios mío.

Evangelio:Lucas 9, 18-24
El Evangelio enfrenta a los hombres de todos los siglos
con la pregunta de Cristo ¿quién dice la gente que soy yo?
Cristo anunció su pasión y muerte, y añadió las condiciones para sus seguidores: abnegación, sufrimiento y
disponibilidad absoluta.
MINISTERIO DE LOS ENFERMOS
Personas que tengan familiares o amigos enfermos en el
hospital o en sus casas deben de comunicarse con la
Catedral al 774-0201.
Pistas para la Oración
Señor Jesús, también hoy nos preguntas a nosotros: ¿quién
dicen que soy yo? O mejor ¿quién soy para ustedes? En
medio de un mundo que prefiere ídolos y promesas de
engaño
Te confesamos Hijo de Dios y único salvador del hombre.
¿A quién otro podemos seguir, Señor, que no nos defraude?
Solamente tú tienes palabras y hechos de vida eterna.
Te creemos resucitado y vivo en el mundo, hoy como
ayer, y estamos seguros: vives en nosotros por medio
de tu Espíritu. Concédenos conocerte a fondo por la fe,
la amistad y la oración; y haz que, queriendo a nuestros
hermanos, nos entreguemos a la fascinante tarea de amarte
apasionadamente.
Amén.
(Tomado de B. Caballero: La Palabra Cada Domingo, San
Pablo, España, 1993, p. 536)

Second Reading: Galatians 3:26–29 We are children of God in Christ Jesus.
Gospel: Luke 9:18–24 Take up the cross.
We find Jesus in today’s Gospel taking the question of who his disciples think he is and turning it around, telling us
who we must be. If we are to follow him, we must be willing to do as he did, that is, take up our cross each and every
day. As we reflect on these readings today, perhaps the question for us is how we lose our life in order to save it.
