The Peter’s Pence Collection is taken up worldwide to sup-

port the most disadvantaged – victims of war, oppression,

natural disasters and others in need of emergency assis-

tance. Pope Francis has asked us to “care for those who are

in need of attention, understanding and help, to bring them

the warm closeness of God’s love through tangible actions

of sensitivity, of sincere affection and of love.” The Holy

Father uses the Peter’s Pence Collection to strengthen dio-

ceses, religious orders and struggling communities of faith

when they need it most.

La Colecta Peter's Pence se recoge a nivel mundial para

apoyar a los menos privilegiados – víctimas de guerra,

opresión, desastres naturales y otras personas necesitadas

de asistencia de emergencia. El Papa Francisco nos ha

pedido que “cuidemos de aquellos que necesitan atención,

entendimiento y ayuda, para llevarles la cálida cercanía

del amor de Dios a través de acciones sensibles, de sincero

afecto y amor”. El Santo Padre usa la Colecta de los Pen-

iques de Pedro para fortalecer diócesis, órdenes religiosas

y comunidades de fe en pleno conflicto cuando más lo

necesitan.

13TH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME

This week, both the Gospel and first reading affirm the healing

and life-giving power of God’s love. Yet, we experience that death,

suffering and pain are a very real part of life. Many find themselves

asking: “Where is God?” The death and resurrection of Jesus is the

assurance that God is with us in the midst of pain, suffering and

even death and bringing us to new life. How can we hold others in

their pain and suffering to help them to trust in God? Who needs

the witness of your faith and love this week?

DÉCIMO TERCERO DOMINGO DEL TIEMPO ORDINARIO

Esta semana, tanto el Evangelio como la primera lectura afirman

la sanación y el poder de dar vida del amor de Dios. Aún así, exper-

imentamos la muerte, el sufrimiento y el dolor como una parte muy

real de nuestras vidas. Muchos nos encontramos a nosotros mismos

preguntándonos: “¿Dónde está Dios?” La muerte y resurrección de

Jesús es la garantía de que Dios está con nosotros en medio del

dolor, el sufrimiento e incluso la muerte y nos trae vida nueva

¿Cómo podemos sostener a otros en su dolor y sufrimiento para

ayudarles a confiar en Dios? ¿Quién necesita el testimonio de su fe

y amor esta semana?
