THE HOPE AND PROMISE OF REDEMPTION

The prophet Jeremiah prophesies the end of the Babylonian exile. He describes how the weak and sor-rowful people now return with joy. These are the scat-tered people of God: the blind and the lame, the moth-ers and pregnant women. They shall be led along an easy road so that no one will stumble. The Lord’s kind-ness and mercy are on all these weak and broken peo-ple.

Here and in Psalm 126 we find the most lovely poetic images of God’s love and care for us. “Those that sow in tears / shall reap rejoicing. Although they go forth weeping, / carrying the seed to be sown, / they shall come back rejoicing, / carrying their sheaves” (Psalm 126:5–6). Although God had to pun-ish Israel for their many sins, God never forgot them, scattered as they were, and brings them all back to the land of their ancestors, there to flourish and be joyful again. We can see in this the hope and the promise of our own redemption, gathered from the far corners of the earth into the great banquet of God.

The LORD has done great things for us;

we are glad indeed. — Psalm 126:3

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION

Today is the feast of the Forty Martyrs of Eng-land and Wales, the first representative body of many Catholics who died for their faith between 1535 and 1679 to be beatified or canonized. Almost all of them died at Tyburn, a place of public execution near to-day’s Marble Arch in Hyde Park, London. The first to suffer were Carthusian monks who refused to swear an oath supporting Henry VIII as supreme head of the Church in England, and the last was Saint Oliver Plunkett, the Primate Archbishop of Ireland. The method of execution was particularly vile, since the condemned were hanged and their living bodies quartered to be displayed around London as a horrific warning.

Today, the tree-like gallows provides the design of a religious symbol, the canopy over the altar of the martyrs in Tyburn Convent. There, at the heart of the bustling city, a monastic community of women prac-tices contemplative prayer and “spiritual hospitality” in the Benedictine tradition. Oddly, the community is French in origin; it was expelled from France a centu-ry ago when France outlawed contemplative monas-tic life. England, where the laws against Catholicism had been lifted, invited the community in. In grati-tude to their new homeland, and in honor of those who gave their lives for the Catholic faith, the nuns came to Tyburn. In the public crypt, coats of arms stand for each of the 350 martyrs. A Web site visit is possible at www.tyburnconvent.org.uk.

LA ESPERANZA Y PROMESA DE REDEN-CIÓN

El profeta Jeremías anuncia el fin del exilio en Babilonia. Describe cómo los débiles y los tristes ahora regresarán con alegría. Éste es el pueblo dis-persado de Dios: los ciegos y cojos; preñadas y pari-das. Serán guiados por un camino llano para que na-die tropiece. La bondad y misericordia del Señor es-tán con este pueblo débil y deshecho.

Aquí y en el Salmo 126 (125) encontramos imá-genes poéticas extremadamente hermosas del amor y cuidado que Dios tiene por nosotros. “Los que sem-braban con lágrimas, / cosechan entre cantares. Al ir, iba llorando, / llevando la semilla; / al volver, vuelve cantando, / trayendo sus gavillas” (Salmo 126[125]:5-6). Si bien Dios tuvo que castigar a Israel por sus muchos pecados, nunca se olvidó de ellos aun cuando estaban dispersos, y los llevó de regreso a la tierra de sus ancestros para que prosperaran y fueran felices de nuevo. En esto encontramos la esperanza y la prome-sa de nuestra propia redención al reunirnos, desde todos los rincones del mundo, para celebrar el gran banquete de Dios.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE

En México y otros países latinoamericanos se están preparando para celebrar el Día de Todos los Santos (1o de noviembre) y el Día de los Fieles Di-funtos (2 de noviembre). Estas dos fiestas cristianas fueron mezcladas con antiguos ritos y devociones mesoamericanas. Ellas enfatizan que la muerte es parte normal del ciclo de la vida y que los difuntos no se olvidan de sus seres queridos. Esta es la base de la devoción católica a los santos: Dios es Dios de los vivos y no de los muertos (Mateo 22:32); por eso los muertos siguen vivos en una nueva dimensión.

En estos días, las familias pasan tiempo en los ce-menterios, visitando las tumbas de sus parientes y amistades, lavando las lápidas, poniendo arreglos de zempasuchil y encendiendo veladoras. En casa, mu-chos latinos construyen y adornan altarcitos dedicán-dolos a las almas de sus seres queridos que han muerto. En los altares se encuentran papel picado, fotos de los difuntos, artículos religiosos, comida, be-bida, cigarritos y otras cosas que los ya muertos dis-frutaban durante sus vidas.

Para los niños muertos se añaden juguetitos que les gustaban en vida.

El Ministerio de Consolación les invita a la Misa Bilingüe, del Día de Todos los Difuntos 2 de Noviembre a las 7:00pm de la tarde.

Si tiene un familiar que falleció este año, puede traer su foto y ponerlo en la mesa especial que pondrán en

el altar; así conmemoraremos a todos los fieles difuntos.
