December 1, 2019
First Sunday of Advent
Isaiah 2:1-5
Psalm 122
Romans 13:11-14
Matthew 24:37-44
Introduction to the Liturgy of the Word
Today’s readings emphasize that we are called to do
more during Advent than just wait for the Lord’s com-
ing. We are called to act. Isaiah calls all people to
come in peace and light to the mountain of the LORD.
Saint Paul encourages the Romans to live in the light,
conducting themselves appropriately. Jesus warns his
disciples that the Second Coming could occur at any
time and they must be prepared. Let us prepare right
now by listening attentively to the word of God.
What am I doing that I would not want seen in the light
of day, or at the hour I do not expect? What do I need
to do to change this?
December 8, 2019
Second Sunday of Advent
Isaiah 11:1-10
Psalm 72
Romans 15:4-9
Matthew 3:1-12

1º de diciembre de 2019
Primer Domingo de Adviento
Isaías 2, 1-5
Salmo 122
Romanos 13, 11-14
Mateo 24, 37-44
Introducción a la Liturgia de la Palabra
Las lecturas de hoy enfatizan que durante el Adviento
somos llamados a hacer algo más que esperar la venida
del Señor. Somos llamados a actuar. Isaías llama a
todos los pueblos a venir en paz al monte del Señor y a
caminar a la luz del Señor. San Pablo exhorta a los
romanos a revestirse de la luz y a comportarnos
dignamente. Jesús le advierte a sus discípulos que la
segunda venida puede ocurir en cualquier momento y
por eso deben estar preparados. Preparémonos en este
instante escuchando la palabra de Dios.
¿Qué estoy hacienda que no quisiera que saliera a la luz
o en un momento inesperado? ¿Qué debo hacer para
cambiar eso?
8 de diciembre
Segundo Domingo de Adviento

Salmo 72
