• December 24, 2021, Today’s Rosary on YouTube | Daily broadcast at 7:30 pm ET • Audio Podcast of this Rosary is Available Here Now! Merry Christmas! Advent has reminded us of the light soon to make its way into the world to dwell among us. Christmas is about the coming of the light into our darkness. God comes to us in a variety of ways: in the living word, in the Eucharist and the sacraments, in the carols, in the nativity scenes, and in the presence of family and friends. Every Christmas we are reminded that Divinity came in the person of Jesus, breaking into human history. With what purpose? To heal us from our sins and let us know the depth of his love for us. Let's faithfully celebrate Christmas Eve dinner with our families and friends, remembering and hosting if possible those who are struggling in our society. Ave Maria!

• December 17, 2021, Today’s Rosary on YouTube | Daily broadcast at 7:30 pm ET • Audio Podcast of this Rosary is Available Here Now! We read today (Matthew 1:1-17) about the genealogy of Jesus, the forty-two generations that stretch from Abraham to Christ. It means that the Word Incarnated dwelt among our dysfunctional human family. In the list of the ancestors of Jesus, we see a bit of everything: from Ruth, who was not an Israelite but a Moabite to Rahab, a prostitute in Jericho. Not a genealogy of saints certainly! Jesus shows His merciful love to people who are sunk in sin — all of us! The Son of God knows about our struggle and His approach is through love and mercy. This is the good news of Advent and Christmas: the Divinity pushing into our sinful family with the mission of rescuing us and giving us an eternally joyful life. Ave Maria!

• December 16, 2021, Today’s Rosary on YouTube | Daily broadcast at 7:30 pm ET • Audio Podcast of this Rosary is Available Here Now! Everything we do, knowingly or unknowingly, is for the Glory of God. Then, the Glory of God is reflected in us. We should understand that we are united forever with the Holy Mighty One. Nothing can separate us from Jesus Christ: not the Evil Doer, nor the flesh, nor the world with its tricks and lies. Not even our own unspeakable sins! The Holy Trinity gave us eternal life so we build together the Kingdom of Heaven here on our temporary life on earth and in the upcoming everlasting life. Humans talk about death, but there is no death for faithful people. Life is eternally uninterrupted. Our loved ones in Heaven can testify about it — my beloved and eternal wife Maria Blanca in my case [in the picture above, along with the Rosaries she left to myself and my son 53 days after passing away]. Today, when we make one-thousand days by praying the Rosary of Mary in this community, we heartily thank Our Blessed Mother and Her Divine Son for the privilege and joy of giving us the grace to invoke daily the Heavens, and even talk in their holy name. Such is the gracious Will of the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit, and the Spouse of the Holy Spirit, along with the angels and the Communion of Saints. Ave Maria! Jesus, I Trust In You! + Mikel A. | RosaryNetwork.com, New York
• December 15, 2021, Today’s Rosary on YouTube | Daily broadcast at 7:30 pm ET • Audio Podcast of this Rosary is Available Here Now! This week, we celebrated Our Lady of Guadalupe. This feast highlights, as Archbishop Jose Gomez, said that "who we are, the dearest sons and daughters of God Our Lord." We remember the words she addressed to St. Juan Diego: ‘Am I not here, I, who am your mother? Are you not under my shadow and shelter? Am I not the source of your joy? Are you not in the hollow of my mantle, in the crossing of my arms?’ "When we look into her eyes, we experience the love she has for each one of us, for our families, the Church, and the society in which we live," Archbishop Gomez said. "Mary of Guadalupe opens her arms with tenderness and compassion and embraces us all with motherly love." Ave Maria! Jesus, I Trust In You! + Mikel A. | RosaryNetwork.com, New York

December 14th is the memorial of St. John of the Cross, the 16th-century Spanish, Carmelite priest and Mystical Doctor of the Church. He reformed the Carmelite order together with St. Teresa of Avila, and wrote the classic spiritual treatise "The Dark Night of the Soul." During his religious life, he was mistreated, humiliated, and incarcerated, but these trials brought him closer to God by breaking his dependence on the things of this world. As Pope St. John Paul II, who wrote a doctoral thesis on the saint's writings, said he was a “master in the faith and witness to the living God.” Ave Maria! Jesus, I Trust In You!
