Happy Mother’s Day Almighty and eternal God, Lord of both the living and the dead, Your tender mercy embraces all men known to be Yours by faith and a good life. Through
the intercession of the Most Blessed Virgin Mary our Mother, and of all the Saints, grant Your merciful pardon to all mothers for whom we pray, whether they still are living in this world or have departed from this life into the world
to come. Especially, dear Lord, grant the requests I now make of You for my own beloved mother.
Amen.

PAGINA 7
Reflexiones para la Homilía
A muchas personas les gustaría tener una casa amplia, luminosa, con grandes ventanas y mucho espacio para invitar a amigos; tal vez todos quisiéramos eso. Todos tenemos una imagen de la casa de nuestros sueños, en donde seriamos totalmente felices. Quizá hoy se nos invite a pensar que esa casa es posible que no sea un lugar físico sino el hogar que hacemos dentro de nosotros: un lugar amplio y luminoso, con la transparencia de la verdad y la libertad y cabida para todos—nuestra propia familia y personas de toda cultura y lenguaje. Sonamos, en realidad, con la casa que Jesús nos promete que esta preparando para nosotros: la casa de Dios; se trata de una casa con muchas moradas, una casa de luz, de bienvenida y de salvación. ¿Cuál es el camino hacia esa casa de nuestros sueños y de nuestra sed? Jesús es claro: yo soy el camino. ¿Qué significa esto para nosotros? ¿Cuál es el camino de Jesús? El camino de Jesús es el camino del pueblo santo que también se nos dice hoy que somos. Un pueblo santo camina con dignidad: con dignidad propia y respetando la dignidad de los demás; es decir, camina sabiendo que se es hijo o hija amada de Dios; y vive en la verdad, la justicia y el respeto por la dignidad y los derechos de los demás. Quien camina así va haciendo dentro de si esa casa grande, luminoso y acogedora para todos. Ese pueblo que camina como pueblo escogido, sacerdocio santo y profeta es un pueblo que no cierra sus puertas ni su corazón a las distintas culturas. Como se nos dice en la primera lectura de hoy, a veces las divisiones surgen casi espontáneamente por las diferencias de lenguaje, mentalidad, tradiciones o cultura; pero el pueblo santo cristiano sabe que lo que les une a Cristo, Camino, Verdad y Vida. Es pueblo santo busca hacer un hogar espacioso y luminoso para todos, en la unidad de la fe. Como inmigrantes, sabemos bien que este mundo no es nuestro verdadero hogar. Vamos hacia otro mas duradero: la morada de Dios; pero mientras caminamos, vamos reflejando en nuestra vida lo que significa esa morada de Dios; un lugar de luz, verdad y justicia; un lugar donde todos, sin discriminación ni distinción, tienen su hogar.
