    by Obispo Michael J. Sis
    El Avivamiento Eucarístico Nacional está verdaderamente inspirado por el Espíritu Santo y está teniendo un impacto positivo histórico en la fe católica de este país. Sin embargo, hay algunos en la Iglesia que han criticado este avivamiento, alegando que está poniendo atención exclusiva en la piedad Eucarística, la adoración, y las procesiones solemnes, mientras que ignora el llamado a amar al prójimo en actos concretos de caridad. Pero eso no es cierto en absoluto.

    The National Eucharistic Revival is truly inspired by the Holy Spirit. It is having an historic positive impact on the Catholic faith in this country. Nevertheless, there are some in the church who have been critical of this revival, claiming that it is putting exclusive attention on Eucharistic piety, adoration, and solemn processions, while ignoring the call to love our neighbor in concrete acts of charity. But that is not true at all.

    January 8, 2024
    by Obispo Michael J. Sis
    El 18 de dic. de 2023, el Dicasterio para la Doctrina de la Fe del Vaticano publicó Fiducia Supplicans, una declaración sobre el significado pastoral de las bendiciones. Algunos titulares de los medios de comunicación malinterpretaron el documento, afirmando que permite a los sacerdotes respaldar relaciones que no están de acuerdo con las Escrituras o la enseñanza católica tradicional. Sin embargo, Fiducia Supplicans (FS) no cambia ninguna parte de la enseñanza católica sobre el matrimonio o la sexualidad. El adulterio sigue siendo un pecado. La actividad homosexual sigue siendo un pecado.

    On Dec. 18, 2023, the Vatican Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith published Fiducia Supplicans, a declaration on the pastoral meaning of blessings. Some media headlines misconstrued the document, claiming that it allows priests to endorse relationships that are not in accord with Scripture or traditional Catholic teaching. However, Fiducia Supplicans (FS) does not change any part of Catholic teaching about marriage or sexuality. Adultery is still a sin. Homosexual activity is still a sin.
