August 23, 2026 - 21st Sunday of Ordinary Time
Dear Sisters and Brothers,
In this Sunday’s Gospel, Jesus asks His disciples a very important question: “Who do you say that I am?” After hearing the different answers people have given about Him, Jesus turns directly to His disciples. Peter responds with a profound confession of faith: “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
Peter’s answer is more than simply identifying Jesus. It is an expression of faith—a recognition that Jesus is not merely a teacher, prophet, or miracle worker, but the Messiah, the Son of God. Jesus tells Peter that this truth has been revealed to him by the Father. Then Jesus gives Peter a special mission: “You are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my Church.”
This Gospel reminds us that our Christian faith is ultimately about a person: Jesus Christ. It is not simply about following rules, belonging to a religious community, or participating in traditions. At the heart of everything we believe is our relationship with Christ. Each of us must eventually answer His question: “Who do you say that I am?”
Agosto 23, 2026 -21st Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario
Queiridos Hermanos y Hermanas,
En el Evangelio de este domingo, Jesús hace a sus discípulos una pregunta muy importante: “¿Quién dicen ustedes que soy yo?” Después de escuchar las diferentes respuestas que la gente ha dado sobre Él, Jesús se dirige directamente a sus discípulos. Pedro responde con una profunda profesión de fe: “Tú eres el Cristo, el Hijo de Dios vivo.”
La respuesta de Pedro es mucho más que simplemente identificar quién es Jesús. Es una expresión de fe: reconocer que Jesús no es solamente un maestro, un profeta o un hombre que realiza milagros, sino el Mesías, el Hijo de Dios. Jesús le dice a Pedro que esta verdad le ha sido revelada por el Padre. Luego le confía una misión especial: “Tú eres Pedro y sobre esta piedra edificaré mi Iglesia.”
Este Evangelio nos recuerda que nuestra fe cristiana tiene en el centro a una persona: Jesucristo. No se trata simplemente de seguir reglas, pertenecer a una comunidad religiosa o mantener ciertas tradiciones. En el corazón de todo lo que creemos está nuestra relación con Cristo. Cada uno de nosotros debe responder algún día a la pregunta de Jesús: “¿Quién dices tú que soy yo?”

“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.
