Dear Brothers Sisters:

Queridos hermanos y hermanas:

and

The common theme of this Sunday’s readings is transformation. The readings invite us to work with the Holy Spirit to transform our lives by renewing them during Lent. In the Transfiguration account in today’s Gospel, Jesus is revealed as a glorious figure, superior to Moses and Elijah. The primary purpose of Jesus’ Transfiguration was to allow Him to consult his Heavenly Father in order to ascertain His plan for His Son’s suffering, death and Resurrection. The secondary aim was to make his chosen disciples aware of his Divine glory, so that they might discard their worldly ambitions and dreams of a conquering political Messiah and might be strengthened in their time of trial. On the mountain, Jesus is identified by the Heavenly Voice as the Son of God. Thus, the Transfiguration experience is a revelation of who Jesus really is. Describing Jesus’ Transfiguration, the Gospel gives us a glimpse of the Heavenly glory awaiting those who do God’s will by putting their trusting Faith in Him. May you have a blessed transformation. God bless you,

Fr. Anil Thomas, SVD

El tema común de las lecturas de este domingo es sobre la transformación. Las lecturas nos invitan a trabajar con el Espíritu Santo para transformar nuestra vida, renovándonos durante la Cuaresma. En el relato de la Transfiguración en el Evangelio de hoy, Jesús se revela como una figura gloriosa, superior a Moisés y Elías. El propósito principal de la Transfiguración de Jesús fue para consultar a su Padre celestial y conocer su plan del sufrimiento, muerte y resurrección de su hijo. El objetivo secundario fue sensibilizar a sus discípulos de su gloria Divina, para que pudieran desechar sus ambiciones mundanas y sueños de un Mesías conquistador político y se fortalecieran en su hora de juicio. En la montaña, Jesús es identificado por la voz celestial como hijo de Dios. Así, la experiencia de la Transfiguración es una revelación de quién realmente es Jesús. Al describir la Transfiguración a Jesús, el Evangelio nos da un vislumbre de la gloria celestial esperada de quienes hacen la voluntad de Dios al confiar y tener fe en El. Que tengan una bendecida transformación. Que Dios los bendiga, P. Anil Thomas, SVD
