It is sad, but undeniable, that difficult times bring out the worst qualities of many human beings. Both people and nations exacerbate their selfishness for the sake of survival or sometimes in the worst manifestations, they do so for the cruder and most crazy self-benefit, no matter what or who may be harmed in the process. On the other hand, fortunately, there are those who then tree the best of values and decide to give of themselves for others.

In his address, corresponding to this Sunday, May 16, celebration of the Ascension and ascent to heaven of Our Lord Jesus Christ, Cardinal Juan de la Caridad García, Archbishop of Havana, reminds us that each one of us, followers of Christ , we have been asked to go and preach the Gospel. It is not about going far, Jesus asks us to go to those we love, to go to those around us: “Go to our children, grandchildren, relatives, friends and tell them about Jesus Christ, about his teachings … Tell them what that we have lived, felt and experienced in the Church, in prayer, in Mass. In our teaching and preaching we will find difficulties, rejection, indifference, mockery… But the promised Holy Spirit will fill us with strength and perseverance. And we hope one day, after having lived like Christ, to be with Him in the house of heaven together with all our family and friends ”.

Seventh Sunday of Easter

15 May, 2021 Webmáster 0
Near the end of Easter season, we celebrate the solemnity of the Ascension of the Lord into heaven. Once again, Jesus surprises his Apostles with an unusual, unexpected event, but loaded with meaning for them. As on so many occasions, they are overcome by what is happening and will have to assimilate it little by little, with the help of the Holy Spirit. That happened? Attested by the Gospels and by the book of the Acts of the Apostles, we are told that Jesus, after having risen from the dead, after having appeared on different occasions and circumstances to the closest group of disciples, one day brought them together again and, saying goodbye to them, he ascended to the heavens until he disappeared from their sight.

With the current increases in all prices, it is almost unaffordable to pay a caregiver. Asylums, except for those that are very renowned or cared for by religious entities, in addition to not reaching their capacities and not everyone agrees, they still generally do not meet a standard that is reassuring for family members who place an elderly person in the care of these institutions .
