THE GIFT OF PEACE
Page 2
TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION
One ancient Roman custom that was approved by
the church was the veiling of the bride. When a single
woman pledged her life to Christ, in a way of life not
dissimilar to today’s religious women, the outward sign
of this commitment was a veiling. In ancient Rome, a
woman with uncovered head was unmarried, and a
veiled woman was “off limits to suitors.” It was one
small step to decide that a bride should receive a veil
from the hands of the church as a sign of her new state
in life. The prayer that accompanied the veiling was
beautiful, and sung, a kind of consecratory prayer that
was very similar to the prayer of ordination, or the prayers for blessing holy water or chrism. The “nuptial
blessing” originally mentioned only the woman, although we know that the veil was often extended to cover the husband’s shoulders also. The blessing was located before the kiss of peace, which the priest gave to the
husband, and the husband to his new bride. Remember
that this is in the early centuries, long before the kiss of
peace virtually disappeared from liturgy.
The veiling and blessing was required when priests
or deacons married, was recommended to laypersons,
but forbidden for certain public sinners and second marriages. The veiling of the couple was preserved in England until the Reformation, and is returning to practice
among Swedish Lutherans after having fallen into disuse about seventy-five years ago.

EL DON DE PAZ
Se nos ofrece una visión distinta en la segunda lectura
de hoy, una visión de la Nueva Jerusalén, “que descendía
del cielo, resplandeciente con la gloria de
Dios” (Apocalipsis 21:10). Si buscamos el significado
detrás de la descripción de la radiante ciudad, vemos que
la belleza mayor que se revela es la belleza de una perfecta armonía y orden, una ciudad fundada en la fe de las
doce tribus de Israel y los doce Apóstoles, alumbrada únicamente por la gloria de Dios.
La primera lectura y el Evangelio también van
conectados a esta descripción idealizada de la Nueva Jerusalén. En ambos leemos como la angustia y los altercados
se contrarrestan con el don de la paz. “Mi paz les doy”, les
asegura Jesús a sus discípulos en la Última Cena (Juan
14:27). De acuerdo con ese don, los apóstoles y presbíteros, en la lectura de los Hechos, deciden no alterar la paz
de los nuevos creyentes gentiles. No han de imponerles la
excesiva carga de la circuncisión

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE
Tristemente una vez que muchos latinoamericanos
llegan a los Estados Unidos es difícil regresar a sus
tierras de origen, ni siquiera para visitar. Por esta razón,
muchos pueblos latinoamericanos han construido santuarios a sus vírgenes y santos patrones en tierra estadounidense. De esta manera buscan estar cerca al suelo
que les trajo a luz, que les nutrió con frutas, verduras,
flores, cantos, costumbres y tradiciones.
En Miami el pueblo cubano ha construido una ermita dedicada a la Virgen de la Caridad del Cobre, cuya capilla del Santísimo fue bendecida en la fiesta de la
Ascensión del Señor. Debajo de su altar principal se
guarda una piedra hecha con tierra de las distintas provincias de Cuba. Es bello el hecho, porque de esta manera todo cubano que se acerca al altar del Señor puede
estar cerca de su terruño aunque sea solo por un momento.
Que hay en la tierra que nos llama tanto a nosotros
los latinos. Será que el libro del Génesis tiene razón,
Dios forma toda persona del polvo y el corazón latino
anhela la tierra de la que fue sacado.
