TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION Have you seen Antiques Roadshow on television? People bring attic treasures to experts for appraisal and possible cash. Catholic attics, or maybe Grandma's wall, often hold a "sick call crucifix." It is a curiously bulky crucifix hiding a slid-ing panel and a secret compartment. Two tiny candles, a squeeze bottle of holy water, a stringy purple mini-stole, a tube of prayers, and some cotton balls are all hidden inside. The cross folds up to form a mini-altar that can be propped up by a sick person's bed. All that is needed is a priest with the oil of the sick and Holy Communion. Forty years ago, when these crosses enjoyed great popularity, the sacrament of the sick was often an encounter between priest and sick person alone, and often only in a last crisis of illness. Gradually, we are reclaiming the sacrament of anointing from this minimal, hidden expression. It is celebrated more richly and more often, even in the Sunday assembly, at every stage of illness and across a wide range of human suffer-ing. The "sick call crucifix" is not a tradition, it is a curiosity from another time, but it reminds us of true tradition: we are a people who care for our sick, who accompany them in faith, and who sustain them with an experience of Christ's presence. --Rev. James Field

Second Sunday of Advent Prepare the Way of the Lord

Saint Peter shows us a characteristic of God that we normally do not think about. He tells us that for God, "a day is like a thousand years and a thousand years like one day" (1 Peter 3:8). Because early Christians sometimes com-plained that Jesus' second coming had been delayed, Peter is trying to tell us that what seems like a long time to us is nothing to God. Like the early Christians, we may wonder how long it will take for God to answer our prayers. We may be pray-ing for someone who is looking for a job, a sick relative, an end to abortion, or world peace. Some prayers require us to change, and we may not be ready. What Peter means is that a thousand years is not too long for God if someone needs that long to repent. God is far more patient than we are. God has been "waiting" over two thousand years for us to preach the gospel to all nations. God has been waiting for millennia for people to give up war as a means for solving our problems. God has been wait-ing since the beginning of the human race for us to learn how to love our neighbor. We might not be as patient as God, but we can help. Saint Peter says that we are not just waiting for the Lord's return, we are hastening it. When we make a choice that is based on faith rather than selfishness, we make it a little easier for people to believe in God. Jesus is the light of the world; he asks us to let our light shine, so that people can see Jesus in us. May our light "prepare the way of the Lord" (Mark 1:3). Tom Schmidt

LECTURAS DE HOY Primera lectura – Prepara el camino del Señor; proclama la buena nueva (Isaías 40:1-5, 9-11). Salmo – Muéstranos, Señor, tu misericordia y danos tu salvación (Salmo 85 [84]).

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE

Nuestras tradiciones son bellas y activas. Nor-malmente cuando hablamos de Tradición y tradicio-nes nos entendemos como los sujetos de ellas, pero hay que recordar que primero las recibimos; si cono-cemos y participamos en nuestras tradiciones, es porque alguien ya nos las enseñó. Teólogos hispa-nos como Orlando Espín han convertido la palabra tradición en un verbo. El proceso de enseñar y aprender nuestras tradiciones que transmiten el Evangelio de generación a generación lo llamamos “tradicionar”. Tradicionar es una labor importante de la familia cristiana y, de forma muy limitada, de los ministros y líderes de la Iglesia. Nuestros hijos e hijas no van a recibir nuestras costumbres y creencias en la escuela pública. No van a aprender a ser buenos cristianos en las calles o centros comerciales. Tradicionar cristianamente se hace en la casa, en el barrio y la parroquia. El tradi-cionar a un nuevo cristiano o cristiana, comienza con el Bautismo, más no termina ahí, es algo conti-nuo, algo que se da en todo momento. Hay que edu-car a nuestros hijos e hijas en las tradiciones de nuestra fe y la cultura cristiana. Por ejemplo, durante el Adviento es muy bello tradicionar a tus hijos con Guadalupe, el pesebre, las posadas y especialmen-te, amor al Niño Dios. —Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM,

ments.
