God of Mercy You who went out to encounter The disciples on the way to Emmaus, Grant us a missionary spirit And send us forth to encounter Our brothers and sisters, To walk along beside them, Listen to their hopes and dreams, Rekindle their faith With the fire of your Word.

Dios misericordioso, Tú que saliste al encuentro de los discípulos de Emaús, concédenos un espíritu misionero para salir al encuentro de nuestros hermanos y hermanas, Unirnos a su caminar cotidiano, Escuchar sus tristezas y alegrías, Encender sus corazones con el fuego de tu Palabra, Prepararlos a reconocerte en la Eucaristía y enviarlos como discípulos misioneros a compartir la alegría del Evangelio a generaciones presentes y futuras de toda raza, lengua y cultura. Te lo pedimos desde nuestros corazones ardientes en el Espíritu Santo, en nombre de tu Hijo amado y por la intercesión de nuestra Madre María de Guadalupe, Estrella de la Nueva Evangelización, Amen

THE TRANSFIGURATION OF THE LORD GOSPEL MT 17:1-9 ~ AUGUST 6
Jesus took Peter, James, and his brother, John, and led them up a high mountain by themselves. And he was transfigured before them; his face shone like the sun and his clothes became white as light. And behold, Moses and Elijah appeared to them, convers-ing with him. Then Peter said to Jesus in reply, “Lord, it is good that we are here. If you wish, I will make three tents here, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.” While he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud cast a shadow over them, then from the cloud came a voice that said, “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased; listen to him.” When the disciples heard this, they fell prostrate and were very much afraid.” But Jesus came and touched them, saying, “Rise, and do not be afraid.” And when the disciples raised their eyes, they saw no one else but Jesus alone. As they were coming down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, “Do not tell the vision to anyone until the Son of Man has been raised from the dead.” The gospel of the Lord Praise to You, Lord Jesus Christ
LA TRANSFIGURACION DEL SEÑOR EVANGELIO MT 17:1-9—AGOSTO 6
En aquel tiempo, Jesús tomó consigo a Pedro, a Santiago y a Juan, el hermano de éste, y los hizo subir a solas con él a un monte ele-vado. Ahí se transfiguró en su pre-sencia: su rostro se puso resplande-ciente como el sol y sus vestiduras se volvieron blancas como la nieve. De pronto aparecieron ante ellos Moisés y Elías, conversando con Jesús. Entonces Pedro le dijo a Jesús: “Señor, ¡que bueno sería quedarnos aquí! Si quieres, haremos aquí tres chozas, una para tí, otra para Moisés y otra para Elías”. Cuando aún estaba halando, una nu-be luminosa los cubrió y de ella salió una voz que decía: “Este es mi Hijo muy amado, en quien tengo puestas mis complacencias; escúchenlo”. Al oír esto, los discípulos cayeron rostro en tierra, llenos de un gran temor, Jesús se acercó a ellos, los tocó y les dijo: “Levántense y no teman”. Alzando entonces los ojos, ya no vieron a nadie más que a Jesús. Mientras bajaban del monte, Jesús les ordenó: “No le cuenten a nadie lo que han visto, hasta que el Hijo del hombre haya resucitado de entre los muertos”. Palabra del Señor
Gloria a ti, Señor Jesús

ACT 1. What can we do to bridge (act in light of faith) the gap between what is happening (the reality) and what should be happening? (the ideal/ what our faith says) 2.

II Si alguien proclama el Pasaje del Evangelio del próximo Domingo, despacio y con reverencia. III El pequeño grupo comenzará a compartir y contes- tar las siguientes preguntas: (usted puede necesitar el comentario y exégesis de la Lectio Divina para tener un mejor entendimiento del pasaje del Evangelio).
VER 1. ¿Qué está pasando en el (Mira el pasaje) pasaje? 2. ¿Quiénes son las personas involucradas? 3. ¿Cómo está obrando esta situación en la gente? - (Consecuencias) 4. ¿Por qué está sucediendo? (Causas)
JUZGAR 1. ¿Cómo te sientes con esta (Miremos nuestras vidas) situación? 2. ¿Alguna vez se comportó o actuó como cualquiera en el pasaje? 3. Si es así, ¿qué sucedió? ¿Por qué? 4. ¿Cómo se sintieron ustedes y/o los involucrados? (Consecuencias) 5. ¿Cuál sería lo ideal? ACTUAR 1. ¿Qué podemos hacer para (Actuar a la luz de la fe) llenar el vacío entre lo que está pasando (la realidad) y lo que debería estar sucediendo? (lo ideal/ qué dice nuestra fe) 2. ¿Cómo podemos aplicar los valores/mensaje del Evangelio a nuestra vida cotidiana? 3. ¿Qué acción vamos a tomar? 4. ¿A quién podemos involucrar en nuestra acción?
CONCLUSION: Todos los miembros del pequeño grupo hacen el compromiso de llevar a cabo las acciones sugeridas después de reflexionar sobre la Palabra de Dios.
REFLEXIONANDO LA PALABRA DE DIOS: VER, JUZGAR, ACTUAR REFLECTING ON THE WORD OF GOD: SEE, JUDGE, ACT
El siguiente proceso puede ser aplicado a cualquier pasaje biblico en oracion privada y es aun as enriquecedor en un grupo. The following process can be applied to any scriptural passage in private prayer and is even more enriching in a group.
