MEMORIES AND DREAMS Throughout our lives, we retain the language and habits of our native region and family of origin. Should we return to our home after a long ab-sence, we quickly revert to its familiar speech and practices. Our deep memory is reflected in old stories and words and speech patterns. This familiarity runs like an underground river and
accompanies us wherever we go. Not only do we remember, we are incorporated into and made part of a greater memory. In re-
membering and recollecting, we are in turn gath-ered up and re-collected.
Today we remember Mary, a small figure travel-ling the country roads to visit Elizabeth. All the great pronouncements and dreams of the proph-ets point to this time when the Lord s words to
Mary would be gathered and fulfilled. The memo-ries of her people are alive in her, and memories
of her nourish our own living faith. Copyright (c) J. S. Paluch Co.
RECUERDOS Y SUEÑOS En el curso de nuestra vida mantenemos el
idioma y los hábitos de nuestra región nativa y familia de origen. Cuando retornamos a
nuestro hogar tras una larga ausencia, rápi-damente volvemos a su manera de hablar y a sus prácticas familiares. Nuestros profundos recuerdos se reflejan en viejas historias y pa-labras y en modos de conversar. Esta familia-
ridad corre como un río subterráneo y nos acompaña a donde sea que vayamos.
No solamente recordamos, sino que somos incorporados y formamos parte de una memo-ria más amplia. Cuando traemos recuerdos a la mente somos a la vez reunidos y recorda-
dos. Hoy recordamos a María, una joven frágil,
que recorre zonas rurales para visitar a Isa-bel. Todos los grandes pronunciamientos y
sueños de los profetas apuntan a este tiempo en que deben cumplirse las palabras del Se-ñor a María. Las memorias de su pueblo es-
tán vivas en ella, y esas memorias alimentan nuestra fe viva.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE Esta semana recordamos a los niños judíos que fueron asesinados por orden del Rey Herodes en Belén. Esa tragedia que ocur‐rió cuando el viejo y celoso rey se enteró del nacimiento de un nuevo rey de los ju‐díos. Él mandó a matar a todo niño que tuviera menos de dos años. El llanto de las familias que perdieron sus pobres inocen‐tes se ha convertido en risas en varios países latinoamericanos. El 28 de diciem‐bre en muchas partes es conmemorado como el día de los inocentes que viene siendo el April Fools de Latinoamérica. En ese día se hacen bromas para burlarse de los amigos. Si la broma funciona al pobre que fue engañado se le llama inocente . La inocencia normalmente se atribuye a los niños o a los ingenuos, pero en si la inocencia es una virtud cristiana, de los que hemos sido perdonados por Cristo. Esta inocencia no es ingenuidad mas bien es la candidez, simplicidad y generosidad de una persona que conoce bien lo duro que es la vida y aún así mantiene la es‐peranza. ‐‐Fray Gilberto Cavazos‐Glz, OFM, Copy‐right (c) J.

In ancient pagan Rome, these days in mid‐December were a time for general slacking off at work and far too much rejoicing. The peri‐od of leisure after the harvest and a whole cluster of pagan festivals were a force for the church to reckon with. The Saturnalia, break‐ing out on December 17, was a time of high living and loose morals. Christians were ad‐vised by their bishops to drop out of the may‐hem and do some serious fasting. A famous church council at Saragossa in Spain made a season of fasting mandatory from December 17 to December 23, exactly coinciding with the Saturnalia. The bishops at that time were per‐haps less concerned with preparing for Christmas than with resisting the kind of loose living going on. Modern times have re‐stored a bit of the Saturnalia spirit to our cul‐ture, so that a general period of partying with a vague connection to religion is now upon us. How does a Christian keep balance? The practice of charity by remembering the poor in our gift‐giving, of hospitality in finding a place at our holiday tables for the poor and lonely, and of daily prayer in the home and at church are great helps. Although Advent is not a penitential season like Lent, it is a time for making room in our lives for what matters
