CAMBIO Cuaresma es cambio y cambiar no es fácil. Para poder cambiar debemos dejar algo atrás. Hoy escuchamos acerca de un hombre muy viejo que decide responder al llamado de Dios. Abram atraviesa por una tremenda cantidad de cambios cuando todo lo deja y lo arriesga por la promesa de Dios. Jesús cambia, se transfigura, justo delante de los ojos de sus discípulos. Las escrituras en Cuaresma nos llaman a cambiar, a ser transfigurados, para que también nosotros pronto participemos en la gloria de Dios. ¿Qué nos pide Dios dejar atrás? ¿Estamos dispuestos a arriesgarlo todo por la promesa que Dios hace? Estas son las preguntas centrales en el camino de conversión de la Cuaresma. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

CHANGE Lent is all about change and change is usually not easy. In order to change we have to leave something behind. Today we hear about a very old man who decides to answer God’s call. Abram experiences a tremendous amount of change when he leaves everything behind, risking it all for God’s promise. Jesus changes, is transfigured, right before the eyes of his disciples. The Lenten scriptures issue the call for us to change, to be transfigured, so that we, too, will soon share in the glory of God. What is it that the Lord is asking us to leave behind? Are we willing to take the risk for the promise made by God? These questions are at the heart of the Lenten journey of conversion. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

For Trinh, home is where her family gathers—to play, to eat, to rest. “My family is the most important thing to me,” she says. In Vietnam, CRS is working with students like Trinh, helping them to learn ways to protect their home, food and family from destructive storms. Trinh is happy that she can apply what she learned in school to help her family. Maria Ana from Honduras is no different. Her family’s home was destroyed in a recent accident, and her family is living in a temporary space, a small wooden hut, until they can get it fixed. To help make the dream a reality, Maria Ana works hard in school and CRS provides school lunches to ensure she can focus on her studies and not on her hunger. Maria Ana also works in her com-munity to earn money to support her family. At home, she helps with chores, like wash-ing the school uniforms, helping to prepare the family meal, and fetching and boiling water to make it drinkable.
Para Trinh, el hogar es donde se reúne su familia: para jugar, comer,
descansar. “Mi familia es lo más importante para mí”, dice ella. En Vietnam, CRS está trabajando con
estudiantes como Trinh, ayudándoles a aprender formas de
proteger su hogar, comida y familia de tormentas destructivas. Trinh está feliz de poder aplicar lo que
aprendió en la escuela para ayudar a su familia.
María Ana, quien es de Honduras, no es diferente. La casa de su familia fue destruida en un accidente reciente, y su familia vive en
un espacio temporal, una pequeña cabaña de madera, hasta que
puedan arreglarla. Para ayudar a hacer realidad el sueño, María Ana
trabaja duro en la escuela, y CRS ofrece almuerzos escolares para
garantizar que pueda concentrarse en sus estudios y no en su
hambre. María Ana también trabaja en su co-munidad para ganar dinero para mantener a
su familia. En casa, ella ayuda con las tareas domésticas, como lavar los uniformes esco-lares, ayudar a preparar la comida familiar y
buscar y hervir agua para que sea potable.
In Kenya, chores are one way Yvone helps her family too. Each morning she washes dishes, sweeps the house, prepares lunch for the younger children and washes their school uniforms. Yvone’s family has a hut where the family eats and sleeps, a stable for the animals and a separate kitchen hut. During the rainy season, the family collects water from a system on the roof. When it’s dry, they borrow from neighbors or walk to a commu-nity water point to fetch water. Yvone’s family life has changed for the better thanks to a CRS program that teaches families about healthy food. In our next story, you’ll learn how.
En Kenia, las tareas son una forma en que Yvone también ayuda a su familia. Cada
mañana lava platos, barre la casa, prepara el almuerzo para los niños más pequeños y
lava sus uniformes escolares. La familia de Yvone tiene una cabaña donde la
familia come y duerme, un establo pa-ra los animales y una cabaña
separada como cocina. Durante la estación de lluvias, la familia
recolecta agua de un sistema en el techo. Cuando está seco, toman
prestado de los vecinos o caminan a un punto de agua de la comunidad
para buscar agua. La vida familiar de Yvone ha cambiado para mejor
gracias a un programa de CRS que enseña a las familias sobre alimentos saludables. En nuestra próxima historia, aprenderás cómo.
