Did Jesus lose his mind? I have come to set the earth on fire

Last updated on: August 14, 2016 at 12:08 pm By Father Pablo Migone

In 1998, the Guatemalan government murdered Bishop Juan Jose Gerardi of Guatemala City in his house two days after the Bishop presented an official report compiled by the Archdiocese detailing years of right-wing government and military oppression towards the indigenous population. In 1991, two young Franciscan Polish priests, Blessed Michele Tomaszek and BlessedZbigneo Strzalkowski, were brutally murdered in my home country of Peru by the Shining Path, a Maoist Guerrilla, since the friars did not agree with their revolutionary ideas.

Archbishop de Jong, Edith Stein: The Cost of Speaking Up

Last updated on: August 10, 2016 at 11:25 am By Father Pablo Migone

Johannes de Jong, Archbishop of Utrecht, the Netherlands, ordered all Catholic parishes in his country to read a pastoral letter on Sunday July 26, 1942 during Mass condemning the Nazi treatment of the Jewish people. The pastoral letter included a transcript of the telegram he had previously sent to Nazi authorities in union with other Dutch churches: “The undersigned Dutch churches, already deeply shocked by the actions taken against the Jews in the Netherlands that have excluded them from participating...

The other side of World Youth Day in Poland

Last updated on: August 1, 2016 at 2:34 pm By Father Pablo Migone

On August 1st, 1944, the single largest military resistance during World War II began in Warsaw, Poland. As World Youth Day concludes, an event filled with great joy and hope, today marks the seventy-second anniversary of a glorious uprising that ended tragically. Today’s anniversary, as well as the events of World War II, remind us that evil is present in the world, and that evil can quickly and effectively take away our joy and hope (if we allow it to...

World Youth Day and Pope Francis going to Panama

Last updated on: July 31, 2016 at 2:31 pm By Father Pablo Migone

The fact that the president of Panama, Juan Carlos Varela, was attending World Youth Day should have given it away. The immediate fact that he was sitting next to Poland’s president during the closing Mass today should have also given it away. The announcement by Pope Francis was received with an enormous cheer: “I am happy to announce that the next World Youth Day – after the two that will be held on the diocesan level – will take place in...

The Second Chapel

Last updated on: July 30, 2016 at 4:02 pm By Father Pablo Migone

“And here,“ the smiling sister said to me, “is our second chapel.” I entered the room a bit confused as she explained, “this is our second chapel because here we also encounter Christ.” The religious sister had led me into a room with about fifteen girls, all suffering from various birth defects and severe ailments. This room housed the older girls of the house, the few that had lived past just a few years after being abandoned by their parents... Read more

Pope Francis falls, rises, and carries on

Last updated on: July 28, 2016 at 4:16 pm By Father Pablo Migone

I noticed earlier today that the press in the United States has picked up the fact that Pope Francis tripped and fell during Mass today at Czestochowa. He did fall when he approached an unexpected step while incensing the altar at the beginning of Mass. It took less than ten seconds for things to continue. There was somewhat of a gentle gasp as he lost his balance. He did not appear to be in pain, nor did the incident disturb the... Read more

La Segunda Capilla

“Y aquí,” la hermana me dijo sonriendo, “está nuestra segunda capilla.” Entré al salón un poco confundido mientras explicaba la hermana, “esta es nuestra segunda capilla porque aquí también encontramos a Cristo.” La hermana religiosa me había invitado a entrar a un salón con unas quince jóvenes, todas las cuales sufrían de defectos congénitos y enfermedades graves. En este salón se encontraban las jóvenes mayores del hogar, las pocas que habían vivido más allá de unos pocos años después de... Read more

Pilgrims everywhere, Francis in Czestochowa

Last updated on: July 28, 2016 at 11:46 am By Father Pablo Migone

As far back as I can remember, there was an image of Our Lady of Czestochowa on the hallway of my house in Peru. She was framed with simple wood and placed on top of a beautiful, old, white chest. As a kid, her appearance always caught my attention and struck my curiosity. She had dark skin and wore unusual clothes. Her most striking characteristic was the set of scars on the right cheek. My mother once explained that the scars... Read more
