Almost all of them died at Tyburn, a place of public execu on near today s Marble Arch in Hyde Park, London. The first to suffer were Carthusian monks who refused to swear an oath suppor ng Henry VIII as supreme head of the Church in England, and the last was Saint Oliver Plunke, the Primate Archbishop of Ireland. The method of execu on was par cularly 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 monas c community of women prac ces contempla ve prayer and spiritual hospitality in the Benedic ne tradi on. Oddly, the community is French in origin; it was expelled from France a century ago when France outlawed contempla ve monas c life. England, where the laws against Catholicism had been li ed, invited the community in. In gra 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.

Psalm 126:3 TRADICIONES E DE NUESTRA FE n México y otros países la noamericanos se están preparando para celebrar el Día de Todos los Santos (1o de noviembre) y el Día de los Fieles Difuntos (2 de noviembre). Estas dos fiestas cris anas fueron mezcladas con an guos ritos y devociones mesoamericanas. Ellas enfa zan 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 empo en los cementerios, visitando las tumbas de sus parientes y amistades, lavando las lápidas, poniendo arreglos de zempasuchil y encendiendo veladoras. En casa, muchos la nos construyen y adornan altarcitos dedicándolos a las almas de sus seres queridos que han muerto. En los altares se encuentran papel picado, fotos de los difuntos, ar culos religiosos, comida, bebida, cigarritos y otras cosas que los ya muertos disfrutaban durante sus vidas. Para los niños muertos se añaden jugue tos que les gustaban en vida. Fray Gilberto Cavazos Glz, OFM, Copyright J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.
