Preguntas para una iglesia en crisis

Al estar en misa no pude evitar pensar y recordar. La iglesia a la que fui este domingo normalmente está llena de niñas y niños chiquitos. Cuando voy a ella me distraigo disfrutando viendo sus ocurrencias, cómo se portan, a los que cantan, a los que pelean, a los que sonríen. Es un motivo de mucha alegría y un signo de esperanza. Pero hoy no fue así. Hoy sentí tristeza por ellos. También sentí mucha curiosidad por sus papás y, de cierta manera, admiración. ¿Cómo es posible que una institución que no protege a sus niñas y niños esté llena de ellos?

Questions for a Church in Crisis

Being in mass I could not help starting to reflect again. The church that I attended this Sunday is usually full of children. Whenever I go there I am usually distracted looking at how they behave, some of them sing, some fight, some laugh, they smile. I rejoice at this sign of hope. It was not like that today. Today, I felt sad for them. I also felt curious about their parents and some admiration. How is it possible that an institution that does not protect its children is full of them?

Decir Sí a las Relaciones

Cuando asistía al secundario y a la universidad, a veces tenía mucho miedo de ir a clubes y eventos porque tenía miedo de ser la única allí. En vez de FOMO (Miedo a perderse algo), sufría de FOBA (Miedo a estar solo). Posteriormente me di cuenta de que mis miedos me alejaban de experiencias que podría haber disfrutado y de relaciones que me podrían haber aportado alegría.

Saying Yes to Relationships

To quote a song from Stephen Sondheim’s musical, “Into the Woods,” “no one is alone,” and how true have I found that line since I entered religious life.
