Su servicio como copresidente de la Comisi\u00f3n Pasionista sobre Migraci\u00f3n ha profundizado su conciencia respecto a las necesidades de personas provenientes de culturas muy diversas, al igual que su participaci\u00f3n en los comit\u00e9s Laudato Si\u2019 y de Diversidad Cultural y Racial de la Provincia Santa Cruz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00abSoy un hombre blanco y privilegiado. Cuento con una educaci\u00f3n universitaria. He llegado a comprender lo importante que resulta reconocer esto: que mi identidad cultural me llama a hacer algo con aquello que he recibido\u00bb, explica Michael.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A modo de ejemplo, en su propia cultura, la actitud ante el sufrimiento suele ser la de \u00abevitaci\u00f3n\u00bb; sin embargo, a trav\u00e9s de los ojos de la fe, Michael considera que esta postura puede ser atemperada mediante la comprensi\u00f3n de la Cruz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00abLa crucifixi\u00f3n trata sobre las causas intencionales del sufrimiento. Para aquellos que experimentan el sufrimiento natural inherente a la vida, centrarse en la Cruz puede brindar cierto consuelo. La Cruz me muestra que hay una luz al final del t\u00fanel\u00bb, dice Michael. \u00abEl sufrimiento antinatural o impuesto de la crucifixi\u00f3n nos confronta con la injusticia y nos obliga a mirarla directamente a los ojos. Nos infunde el valor para dar un paso al frente\u00bb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignright size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"468\" height=\"351\" src=\"https:\/\/passionist.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Michael-Nasello-2_1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12573\" srcset=\"https:\/\/passionist.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Michael-Nasello-2_1.jpg 468w, https:\/\/passionist.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Michael-Nasello-2_1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/passionist.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Michael-Nasello-2_1-16x12.jpg 16w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 468px) 100vw, 468px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Michael during a mission trip to Peru in 2013<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00abMiro el mundo y pienso: \u201c\u00bfPodr\u00e9 abrazar el sufrimiento que veo con el mismo compromiso con el que me entrego a mi propia familia?\u201d\u00bb, comparte Michael <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00abMe viene a la mente el desaf\u00edo de Jes\u00fas cuando pregunta: \u201c\u00bfQui\u00e9nes son mi madre y mis hermanos?\u201d. El mensaje pasionista nos impulsa a reconocer nuestros v\u00ednculos. Formamos parte de un mundo universal. Existe una tensi\u00f3n que nos llama a mirar a las personas que tenemos a nuestro lado y verlas como seres humanos semejantes, a brindarles la calidez y la apertura propias de una familia. Me doy cuenta de lo dif\u00edcil que resulta ampliar mi concepto de familia para incluir a personas que no conozco\u00bb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">La familia es importante en la vida de Michael, y el carisma pasionista desaf\u00eda a la cultura a considerar a la familia como algo m\u00e1s que simples parientes consangu\u00edneos. Un ejemplo de ello es que el cuidado de los ancianos exige mucha destreza y discernimiento, ya sea dentro del c\u00edrculo familiar m\u00e1s cercano o m\u00e1s all\u00e1 de \u00e9l.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">La cultura del siglo XXI en Norteam\u00e9rica se pregunta: \u201c\u00bfD\u00f3nde se puede obtener la mejor atenci\u00f3n para la persona que est\u00e1 envejeciendo?\u201d\u00bb, comenta Michael. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00abLa espiritualidad pasionista de la presencia constituye un verdadero llamado a escuchar las historias de los dem\u00e1s y a acompa\u00f1arlos en un trayecto dif\u00edcil durante esta etapa de sus vidas.\u00bb<\/p>\n<cite>Michael Nasello<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00abMe conmueve el esmero con el que los pasionistas cuidan a sus miembros profesos, procurando preservar su dignidad.

Si consideramos que hay 123 millones de personas desplazadas en todo el mundo, la \u00fanica esperanza para estas personas \u2014que a menudo se encuentran en situaciones desesperadas\u2014 reside en que seamos capaces de verlas como a nuestros propios hermanos y hermanas.

El carisma pasionista llama a las personas a conmoverse, a solidarizarse y a actuar\u00bb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">El carisma pasionista constituye un pilar fundamental en la vida de Michael y, sin duda, existen \u00e1mbitos en los que desaf\u00eda las normas culturales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00abEl carisma pasionista nos desaf\u00eda a trascender esas visiones limitantes con las que nos percibimos mutuamente\u00bb. <\/p>\n<cite>Michael Nasello<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00abDebemos mantener los ojos abiertos\u00bb, explica. \u00abLa Cruz deber\u00eda conmovernos.

The first is natural suffering, illness, aging and the ordinary hardships of life. The second is suffering caused by others, whether through injustice, abuse or oppression.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Passionist focus on the cross speaks powerfully to both. For natural suffering, it offers comfort and hope, reminding us that suffering is not the end and that there is meaning beyond it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For suffering caused by others, the cross becomes a call to action. It invites people not only to endure suffering, but to confront it, to stand with those who are oppressed and to resist injustice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In this way, the cross is both consolation and courage, sustaining people in their pain and empowering them to act.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Family, Belonging and Expanding Relationships<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Family plays a central role, especially within Italian cultural roots, where gathering, food and shared life are essential expressions of belonging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, the Gospel and the Passionist charism challenge this understanding by expanding the idea of family. The question becomes not only who belongs to my family, but whether I can extend the same care and commitment to those beyond it, especially those who suffer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This can be difficult. It requires moving beyond comfort and familiarity, and being willing to encounter people who may be different, inconvenient or even challenging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A powerful example of this is the experience of accompanying a homeless man. Through simple moments of presence, conversation and shared coffee, a relationship was formed. Yet the loss of that relationship became a lasting lesson in the importance of availability, presence and recognizing the dignity of the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Community, Individualism and Identity<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Identity is shaped by both individual achievement and community belonging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is a strong cultural emphasis on personal success, stability and building a secure life. At the same time, faith communities continue to foster a sense of responsibility toward others, especially through service and outreach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Young people, in particular, are often drawn to opportunities that allow them to make a difference. Service becomes a key way in which identity is formed and expressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Passionist call to solidarity deepens this by asking whether we are truly moved by the suffering of others. It challenges people not to remain passive observers, but to recognize and accompany those who are living the \u201cway of the cross\u201d today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Authority, Listening and Leadership<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Authority in this cultural context has traditionally leaned toward structure, rules and obedience. However, there has been a shift toward a deeper understanding of authority as listening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Obedience is not simply about following rules, but about listening deeply to others, especially to their experiences of suffering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Passionist charism reinforces this by calling leaders to walk with people, to understand their stories and to respond with compassion rather than judgment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">True leadership emerges not from enforcing rules, but from accompanying others on their journey toward healing and growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Aging, Care and Presence<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In modern North American culture, care for the elderly is often professionalized. Families frequently rely on external systems rather than restructuring their lives to care for aging members directly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This reflects both practical realities and cultural priorities, but it can also lead to a lack of personal presence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Passionist spirituality of presence offers a countercultural response. It calls for attentiveness, listening and accompaniment, even when it is difficult or repetitive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Being present with the elderly, honoring their stories and recognizing their dignity becomes an essential expression of faith.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Love as Action and Formation<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Love is expressed through both affection and commitment. It is seen in relationships, in patience and in the willingness to work through difficulties together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In families, love involves forming others, especially children, helping them grow into mature and responsible individuals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Passionist perspective deepens this by emphasizing self-giving love. Love is not only about feeling, but about responsibility, sacrifice and openness to others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It calls people to recognize that life is not centered on the self, but on serving a wider human community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Faith in a Changing Culture<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Religion, while still present, is becoming less central in everyday life for many people. Cultural and ethical questions, such as end-of-life decisions, reveal the growing gap between faith teachings and lived experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The challenge is not only to uphold beliefs, but to accompany people in complex situations. The Passionist charism emphasizes walking with others, even when they make difficult or different choices. It calls for presence, compassion and respect, rather than judgment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Death, Hope and the Present Moment<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beliefs about life after death are increasingly uncertain. Many people express skepticism or ambiguity about what happens beyond this life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Christian faith offers hope in eternal life with God, but the Passionist perspective adds another dimension. It emphasizes that the Kingdom of God is not only future, but already present.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The cross and resurrection call people to participate in building that reality now, through acts of love, justice and accompaniment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Challenging Cultural Norms<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One significant cultural challenge is the tendency to exclude or resist those who are different.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Despite progress, there remains a struggle to fully accept people across differences of culture, identity and experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Passionist charism confronts this by calling people to deeper awareness and transformation. The cross becomes a moment of awakening, inviting individuals to examine their attitudes and grow in compassion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This challenge is life giving because it opens the possibility for reconciliation, growth and a more inclusive community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>A Concrete Expression of the Charism<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One concrete example of living the Passionist charism today is the growing collaboration between religious communities and lay people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is an increasing movement toward shared responsibility, where lay individuals actively participate in carrying forward the mission and spirituality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This reflects a broader shift in the Church, moving from institutional structures toward more relational and mission-driven communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>A Living and Evolving Charism<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Perhaps the most surprising aspect of the Passionist charism is how differently it takes root across cultures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In some places, it remains primarily devotional, while in others it expands into active engagement with social realities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These differences reveal both the richness and the ongoing challenge of the charism.
