1 Let's say " Kyrie eleison " with the leper
SUNDAY 6th DURING THE YEAR Cycle B Let's say " Kyrie eleison " with the leper Nuns of Sant Benet de Montserrat

2 The first miracle is for those who then were most marginalized
After a day in Capernaum, Jesus now begins to explore the world of Galilee The first miracle is for those who then were most marginalized

3 Galilee The miracle of the leper is a sign of the Kingdom (Is30). But as a separate Kingdom, Jesus imposes " secret " until they do not see him crucified

4 Mc 1:40-45 40 And a leper came to him, imploring him,

5 Come to me, even if you feel rejected
Do you BELIEVE that I can cure you? The lepers had to live alone

6 and kneeling said to him, "If you will, you can make me clean."

7 Put in my hands the leprosies of this sick humanity
"If you recognize my power, you will discover your dignity" (St. Leon)

8 Moved with pity, he stretched out his hand and touched him and said to him, "I will; be clean."

9 My water cleans inside, and it never runs out
Feeling the evil is the result of nature, feeling cured it is a gift of Grace My water cleans inside, and it never runs out

10 And immediately the leprosy left him, and he was made clean
And immediately the leprosy left him, and he was made clean. 43 And Jesus sternly charged him and sent him away at once, 44 and said to him, "See that you say nothing to anyone, but go, show yourself to the priest

11 Place before God with your emptiness and your fullness
He will fill you Place before God with your emptiness and your fullness

12 and offer for your cleansing what Moses commanded, for a proof to them

13 Exclusions are your worst sin
lepers' descendants live marginalized in China Exclusions are your worst sin Why do you make divisions: " pure or impure " good or bad ...?

14 But he went out and began to talk freely about it, and to spread the news, so that Jesus could no longer openly enter a town, but was out in desolate places, and people were coming to him from every quarter.

15 Even alone, you are a universal Brother
There are no categories between equals

16 Lord Jesus, grant that each healing can carry us to solidarity, aware that when we recognize ourselves weak, we become strong
