Genesis 22:1-2, 9a, 10-13, 15-18

Génesis 22, 1-2. 9-13. 15-18

God put Abraham to the test.

He called to him, “Abraham!”

“Here I am!” he replied.

Then God said:

“Take your son Isaac, your only one,

whom you love,

and go to the land of Moriah.

There you shall offer him up as a

holocaust

on a height that I will point out to

you.”

When they came to the place of

which God had told him,

Abraham built an altar there and

arranged the wood on it.

Then he reached out and took the

knife to slaughter his son.

But the LORD’s messenger called to

him from heaven,

“Abraham, Abraham!”

“Here I am!” he answered.

“Do not lay your hand on the boy,”

said the messenger.

“Do not do the least thing to him.

I know now how devoted you are to

God,

since you did not withhold from me

your own beloved son.”

As Abraham looked about,

he spied a ram caught by its horns

in the thicket.

En aquel tiempo, Dios le puso una

prueba a Abraham y le dijo:

“¡Abraham, Abraham!” Él

respondió: “Aquí estoy”. Y Dios le

dijo: “Toma a tu hijo único, Isaac, a

quien tanto amas; vete a la región de

Moria y ofrécemelo en sacrificio, en

el monte que yo te indicaré”.

Cuando llegaron al sitio que Dios le

había señalado, Abraham levantó un

altar y acomodó la leña. Luego ató a

su hijo Isaac, lo puso sobre el altar,

encima de la leña, y tomó el cuchillo

para degollarlo.

Pero el ángel del Señor lo llamó

desde el cielo y le dijo: “¡Abraham,

Abraham!” Él contestó: “Aquí

estoy”. El ángel le dijo: “No

descargues la mano contra tu hijo, ni

le hagas daño. Ya veo que temes a

Dios, porque no le has negado a tu

hijo único”.

Abraham levantó los ojos y vio un

carnero, enredado por los cuernos en

la maleza. Atrapó el carnero y lo

ofreció en sacrificio en lugar de su

hijo.

El ángel del Señor volvió a llamar a

Abraham desde el cielo y le dijo:

“Juro por mí mismo, dice el Señor,

que por haber hecho esto y no

So he went and took the ram

and offered it up as a holocaust in

place of his son.

Again the LORD’s messenger called

to Abraham from heaven and said:

“I swear by myself, declares the

LORD,

that because you acted as you did

in not withholding from me your

beloved son,

your descendants shall take

possession

of the gates of their enemies,

and in your descendants all the

nations of the earth

shall find blessing—

all this because you obeyed my

command.”

The Word of the Lord

haberme negado a tu hijo único, yo

te bendeciré y multiplicaré tu

descendencia como las estrellas del

cielo y las arenas del mar. Tus

descendientes conquistarán las

ciudades enemigas. En tu

descendencia serán bendecidos

todos los pueblos de la tierra, porque

obedeciste a mis palabras”.

Second Reading/ Segunda Lectura Romans 8:31b-34

Romanos 8, 31-34

Brothers and sisters:

If God is for us, who can be against

us?

He who did not spare his own Son

but handed him over for us all,

how will he not also give us

everything else along with him?

Who will bring a charge against

God’s chosen ones?

It is God who acquits us, who will

condemn?

Christ Jesus it is who died—or,

rather, was raised—

who also is at the right hand of God,

who indeed intercedes for us.

The Word of the Lord

Hermanos: Si Dios está a nuestro

favor, ¿quién estará en contra

nuestra? El que no nos escatimó a su

propio Hijo, sino que lo entregó por

todos nosotros, ¿cómo no va a estar

dispuesto a dárnoslo todo, junto con

su Hijo? ¿Quién acusará a los

elegidos de Dios? Si Dios mismo es

quien los perdona, ¿quién será el que

los condene? ¿Acaso Jesucristo, que

murió, resucitó y está a la derecha de

Dios para interceder por nosotros?

Palabra de Dios

Gospel Acclamation/Aclamación antes del Evangelio

R. Praise to you, Lord Jesus

Christ, King of Endless glory!

From the shining cloud the Father’s

voice is heard:

This is my beloved Son, listen to

him.

R. Praise to you, Lord Jesus

Christ, King of Endless glory!

R. Honor y gloria a ti, Señor

Jesús. En el esplendor de la nube se oyó la

voz del Padre, que decía:

“Éste es mi Hijo amado;

escúchenlo”.

R. Honor y gloria a ti, Señor

Jesús.

Gospel/Evangelio

Mark 9:2-10 Marcos 9, 2-10

Jesus took Peter, James, and John

and led them up a high mountain

apart by themselves.

And he was transfigured before

them,

and his clothes became dazzling

white,

such as no fuller on earth could

bleach them.

Then Elijah appeared to them along

with Moses,

and they were conversing with

Jesus.

Then Peter said to Jesus in reply,

“Rabbi, it is good that we are here!

Let us make three tents:

one for you, one for Moses, and one

for Elijah.”

He hardly knew what to say, they

were so terrified.

Then a cloud came, casting a

En aquel tiempo, Jesús tomó aparte

a Pedro, a Santiago y a Juan, subió

con ellos a un monte alto y se

transfiguró en su presencia. Sus

vestiduras se pusieron

esplendorosamente blancas, con una

blancura que nadie puede lograr

sobre la tierra. Después se les

aparecieron Elías y Moisés,

conversando con Jesús.

Entonces Pedro le dijo a Jesús:

“Maestro, ¡qué a gusto estamos

aquí! Hagamos tres chozas, una para

ti, otra para Moisés y otra para

Elías”. En realidad no sabía lo que

decía, porque estaban asustados.

Se formó entonces una nube, que los

cubrió con su sombra, y de esta nube

salió una voz que decía: “Éste es mi

Hijo amado; escúchenlo”.

shadow over them;

from the cloud came a voice,

“This is my beloved Son. Listen to

him.”

Suddenly, looking around, they no

longer saw anyone

but Jesus alone with them.

As they were coming down from the

mountain,

he charged them not to relate what

they had seen to anyone,

except when the Son of Man had

risen from the dead.

So they kept the matter to

themselves,

questioning what rising from the

dead meant.

En ese momento miraron alrededor

y no vieron a nadie sino a Jesús, que

estaba solo con ellos.

Cuando bajaban de la montaña,

Jesús les mandó que no contaran a

nadie lo que habían visto, hasta que

el Hijo del hombre resucitara de

entre los muertos. Ellos guardaron

esto en secreto, pero discutían entre

sí qué querría decir eso de ‘resucitar

de entre los muertos’.

Palabra de Dios

The Gospel of the Lord.

Homily

Profession of Faith/Profesión de Fe I believe in one God,

the Father almighty,

maker of heaven and earth,

of all things visible and invisible.

I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ,

the Only Begotten Son of God,

born of the Father before all ages.

God from God, Light from Light,

true God from true God,

begotten, not made,

consubstantial with the Father;

through him all things were made.

For us men and for our salvation

he came down from heaven,

and by the Holy Spirit

was incarnate of the Virgin Mary,

and became man.

For our sake he was crucified under

Pontius Pilate,

he suffered death and was buried,

and rose again on the third day

in accordance with the Scriptures.

He ascended into heaven

and is seated at the right hand of the Father.

He will come again in glory

to judge the living and the dead

and his kingdom will have no end.

I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord,

the giver of life,

who proceeds from the Father and the Son,

who with the Father and the Son

is adored and glorified,

who has spoken through the prophets.

I believe in one, holy, catholic and

apostolic Church.

I confess one baptism

for the forgiveness of sins

and I look forward to the resurrection of

the dead and the life of the world to come.

Amen

Creo en un solo Dios,

Padre todopoderoso,

Creador del cielo y de la tierra,

de todo lo visible y lo invisible.

Creo en un solo Señor, Jesucristo,

Hijo único de Dios,

naido del Padre antes de todos los siglos:

Dios de Dios, Luz de Luz,

Dios verdadero de Dios verdadero,

engendrado, no creado,

de la misma naturaleza del Padre;

por quien todas las cosas fueron hechas;

que por nosotros los hombres,

y por nuestra salvación

descendió del cielo,

y por obra del Espíritu Santo

se encarnó en María La virgen,

y se hizo hombre;

y por nuestra causa fue crucificado

en tiempos de Poncio Pilato,

padeció y fue sepultado,

y resucitó al tercer día,

según las Escrituras,

y subió al cielo,

y está sentado a la derecha del Padre;

y de nuevo vendrá con gloria,

para juzgar a vivos y muertos,

y su reino no tendrá fin.

Creo en el Espíritu Santo,

Señor y dador de vida,

que procede del Padre y del Hijo

que con el Padre y el Hijo

recibe una misma adoración y gloria,

y que habló por los profetas.

Creo en la Iglesia que es Una, Santa,

Universal y Apostólica.

Reconozco que hay un solo bautismo para

el perdón de los pecados,

espero la resurrección de los muertos

y la vida del mundo futuro. Amén

The Light is On for You Confessions on all Wednesdays during Lent will be offered from 6:30-8:00p.m. Individual confessions will take place in the chapel. During this time of “The Light is On for You”, there will be an Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament in the main church. This gives parishioners the sacred space for prayer and adoration. Stations of the Cross on Fridays during Lent Saint Ann will have the Stations of the Cross on all Fridays during Lent at 7p.m. Due to the pandemic and in keeping with the safety protocols for celebrations while in church, parishioners participating in-person for the Stations of the Cross are asked to stay in their pews, instead of walking the stations. Only the minister, altar server who is carrying the cross and the prayer leader will move around in the Stations of the Cross.

Wearing masks and maintaining social distancing are to be observed during these Lenten spiritual exercises in the church.
