ENVÍA TU ESPÍRITU

La semana pasada oímos que después de la As-censión, los discípulos, María y otros seguidores del Señor se retiraron al piso alto donde perseveraron unánimes en la oración. Esta semana escuchamos que, mientras estaban en oración allí, el Espíritu Santo vino sobre ellos. La promesa de Jesús, luego de su Resurrección que el Evangelio de hoy relata, se cumple: el poder del Espíritu Santo viene sobre los seguidores de Jesús. San Pablo nos dice que a todos nosotros, de alguna manera, se nos dan los do-nes del Espíritu Santo, dones que se pueden usar pa-ra anunciar la Buena Nueva. Hoy es una de las más grandes fiestas de la Iglesia. Llevemos con nosotros el estribillo del salmo responsorial: “¡Envía tu Espí-ritu, Señor, y repuebla la faz de la tierra!” (Salmo 104:30).

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE

El día 9 de junio del año 1597, falleció el jesuita José de Anchieta proveniente de las Islas Canarias, Espa-ña. Este santo “apóstol de Brasil” fue beatificado en 1980 gracias a sus grandes esfuerzos humanitarios, litera-rios y evangelizadores en Brasil. Llegó a Brasil en 1553 donde aprendió Tupí, el idioma de los nativos. Ense-ñaba a los indígenas, evangelizándolos con la doctrina cristiana y educándolos en historia, filosofía y medicina. Eventualmente fundó el colegio jesuita de São Paulo de Piratininga donde tuvo la audacia de educar, junto a los hijos de los nativos, los hijos de los portugueses. Para este esfuerzo escribió muchos libros y manuales, co-sa que le mereció ser el primer escritor en Brasil. Además de ser un escritor prolífico, este misionero dedicó su vida a predicar el Evangelio en Brasil, país que cruzó a pie, fundando pueblos y escuelas para los indígenas cristianos. Estos le llamaban el “santo vola-dor” por la velocidad con que caminaba. Su celo por el Evangelio lo motivaba a seguir caminando. Como dice el profeta Isaías: “Que hermosos son los pies del que trae buena nuevas” (Isaías 52:7).
