December 7, 2025 - Second Sunday of Advent
Dear Sisters and Brothers,
As we enter the Second Sunday of Advent, the Scriptures invite us into a deeper posture of hope and conversion. Today we meet John the Baptist, that bold and uncompromising figure crying out in the wilderness: “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand!” (Mt 3:2). His message is not meant to instill fear, but to awaken hearts. Advent is not simply about preparing for Christmas festivities—it is a season of spiritual readiness. Christ comes not only in Bethlehem, but into every heart willing to receive Him.
The prophet Isaiah offers a vision of the Messiah unlike any earthly ruler: a shoot from the stump of Jesse, filled with the Spirit of wisdom, understanding, counsel, and strength (Is 11:1–10). This promised One brings harmony, justice, and peace—so complete that even natural enemies dwell together without fear. Isaiah’s vision reminds us that Advent hope is not wishful thinking, but a confident trust that God is at work, even when the world feels like a barren stump.
7 de diciembre de 2025 - Segundo Domingo de Adviento
Quieridos hermanos y hermanas en Cristo:
Al entrar en el Segundo Domingo de Adviento, las Escrituras nos invitan a adoptar una actitud más profunda de esperanza y conversión. Hoy encontramos a Juan el Bautista, esa figura valiente e intransigente que clama en el desierto: “¡Arrepiéntanse, porque el Reino de los Cielos está cerca!” (Mt 3,2). Su mensaje no pretende infundir miedo, sino despertar los corazones. El Adviento no se trata simplemente de prepararnos para las festividades navideñas; es un tiempo de preparación espiritual. Cristo viene no solo a Belén, sino a cada corazón dispuesto a recibirlo.
El profeta Isaías ofrece una visión del Mesías distinta de cualquier gobernante terrenal: un brote que surge del tronco de Jesé, lleno del Espíritu de sabiduría, entendimiento, consejo y fortaleza (Is 11,1–10). Este Prometido trae armonía, justicia y paz—tan plenas que incluso los enemigos naturales conviven sin temor. La visión de Isaías nos recuerda que la esperanza de Adviento no es un deseo ingenuo, sino una confianza firme en que Dios actúa, aun cuando el mundo parece un tronco reseco.

“We are all born originals, some in life become photocopies.”
Carlo Acutis was born in London, Britain, on May 3, 1991, to Italian parents, Carlo and Antonia Salzano, who were in the City for work. He was baptized on May 18 at Our Lady of Dolours Church in London. In September 1991, the family returned to Milan. At the age of four, his parents enrolled him in kindergarten, which he attended with great enthusiasm. When the time came for compulsory schooling, he was enrolled at the San Carlo Institute in Milan, a well-known private school. After three months, he was transferred to elementary school at the Tommaseo Institute of the Marcelline Sisters, because it was closer to his home. On June 16, 1998, he received his First Communion, earlier than his usual age, thanks to special permission from his spiritual director, Fr Ilio Carrai, and Archbishop Pasquale Macchi. The celebration took place in the Monastery of the cloistered Romite nuns of the Order of St. Ambrose ad Nemus in Bemaga di Perego (Lecco). The Sacrament of Confirmation, on May 24, 2003, was administered to him in the church of Santa Maria Segreta, by Monsignor Luigi Testore, former secretary of Cardinal Carlo Maria Martini and parish priest of San Marco in Milan.

'Todos nacemos originales, algunos en la vida se convierten en fotocopias'
Carlo Acutis nació en Londres, Gran Bretaña, el 3 de mayo de 1991, de padres italianos, Carlo y Antonia Salzano, que estaban en la City por motivos de trabajo. Fue bautizado el 18 de mayo en la iglesia de Nuestra Señora de los Dolores de Londres. En septiembre de 1991, la familia regresó a Milán. A los cuatro años, sus padres le inscriben en la guardería, a la que asiste con gran entusiasmo. Cuando llegó el momento de la escolarización obligatoria, lo matricularon en el Instituto San Carlo de Milán, una conocida escuela pública. Al cabo de tres meses, fue trasladado a la escuela primaria del Instituto Tommaseo de las Hermanas Marcelinas, por estar más cerca de su casa. El 16 de junio de 1998 recibió la Primera Comunión, antes de su edad habitual, gracias a un permiso especial de su director espiritual, el padre Ilio Carrai, y del arzobispo Pasquale Macchi. La celebración tuvo lugar en el monasterio de las monjas de clausura romitas dell'Ordine di Sant'Ambrogio ad Nemus, en Bemaga di Perego (Lecco). El sacramento de la Confirmación, el 24 de mayo de 2003, le fue administrado en la iglesia de Santa Maria Segreta, por monseñor Luigi Testore, antiguo secretario del cardenal Carlo Maria Martini y párroco de San Marco en Milán.
