Last updated on: March 28, 2019 at 9:29 pm   By Father Pablo Migone

The Catholic News Agency reported this afternoon that Pope Francis is expected to appoint Archbishop Wilton Gregory of Atlanta to the currently open Archdiocese of Washington DC, vacated after the resignation of Cardinal Wuerl last year. CNA made it abundantly clear that there has been no formal announcement, so anything can happen until a formal announcement is made in the near future. Who would succeed Cardinal Wuerl has caused tremendous anticipation in the Catholic world of the United States.  There... Read more

The Annunciation: the Word became Flesh

Last updated on: March 25, 2019 at 4:43 pm   By Father Pablo Migone

The Church remembers today a very concrete moment in the mystery of the incarnation.  The Virgin Mary, chosen from among women, agreed to play a singular role in the history of salvation.  The girl from the insignificant town of Nazareth was chosen by God to become the Mother of God. As a Christian, there are no places more meaningful or significant than those connected to the life of Jesus in the Holy Land.  Among then is the Basilica of the... Read more

Even though today is the third Sunday of Lent, this March 24th marks the first time the Feast of San Oscar Romero is celebrated since his canonization last October 14th by Pope Francis in Rome. On a day like today in 1980, Archbishop Oscar Romero was celebrating Mass in the chapel of the hospital’s property where he lived.  A car stopped in front of the open doors of the chapel and right after he finished preaching, as he walked toward... Read more

From the desert to the mountaintop, a Lenten homily

Last updated on: March 17, 2019 at 10:39 am   By Father Pablo Migone

As a child growing up in Peru, I would see majestic mountains all the time.  I could see large mountains down the street from my house even though I lived just about two or three miles from the Pacific Ocean.  The highway to my house had the ocean on the right side and mountains on the left.  Road trips often involved driving through dangerous mountain passes and seeing strikingly beautiful mountain scenery.  Sometimes my dad would stop on the side... Read more

Starting Lent in the Desert

Last updated on: March 15, 2019 at 10:20 am   By Father Pablo Migone

If you travel to Israel today, you will find a monastery built on a mountain from which you can see one of the oldest cities in the world, Jericho, continuously inhabited for 11,000 years.  From the monastery you can also see the river Jordan where Jesus was baptized.  This monastery, run by Greek Orthodox monks, marks the spot in the desert where every Lenten journey begins: with Jesus in the desert for forty days.

Last updated on: February 18, 2019 at 6:13 pm   By Father Pablo Migone

On April 6th, 1994, the airplane carrying the Rwandan president Juvenal Habyarimana was shot down seconds before landing in Kigali.  Absolute chaos descended upon the central African country of Rwanda for the next one hundred days as almost one million people were massacred.  The genocide was perpetuated by members of the Hutu majority tribe against the Tutsi minority.  Decades of vitriolic speech, systematic discrimination, and occasional violence erupted into an unimaginable disaster.  Corpses bearing signs of rape and machetes littered... Read more
