For some time now, the liturgical calendar has been inviting us to enter Ordinary Time<\/strong>. However, this year is not just any ordinary time: we are living it within the framework of the Jubilee of Hope<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n

This gives us a key to live daily life with different eyes, a look that seeks the small details where we find that hope, so necessary to live in these times. With this series of publications we want to discover through the senses, that which awakens hope and invites us to live in that key. <\/p>\n\n

Hope sings<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

This first delivery, we want to do it from the song and music. There are many songs that invite us to hope, starting with the “<\/strong>Jubilee Hymn<\/strong><\/a>“in its <\/strong>Latin American and Caribbean version of CELAM and “Jubilee Mode”.<\/strong><\/a> <\/strong>by Itala and Juanjo, which has become a classic among young people, due to the lively dance steps it proposes.<\/p>\n\n

Also, outside the context of the Jubilee we can find the “<\/strong>Song of Hope”.Song of Hope” <\/strong><\/a>by Cristobal Fones, lyrics by Esteban Gumucio and “Eres mi esperanza” (You are my hope)<\/strong><\/a> by Pablo Mart\u00ednez. <\/p>\n\n

On the other hand, we can listen to music that, outside the religious environment, speaks of hope, such as the classic “Color esperanza”<\/strong>.Color Hope<\/strong><\/a>“by Diego Torres. In a special way, we invite you to let resonate in your heart the song of Marta G\u00f3mez: “La esperanza canta” (Hope sings<\/strong><\/a> ). A song of concrete, daily, real hopes. Hopes that are the daily life of so many women. <\/p>\n\n

They are all melodies that remind us that, even in the midst of difficulties, hope is not extinguished: it continues to sing within us, soft and constant, making its way in the midst of life.<\/p>\n\n

Name born from a desire<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

Hope is also made music in our own religious family. In Argentina a very special song was born: “Name that is born of a desire”, <\/strong>with music and lyrics by Dolores Casta\u00f1eda<\/strong>,<\/a> Daughter of Jesus of the community of La Plata (Andean America), inspired by the letter N\u00ba 47 of Graciela Francovig<\/a>, Superior General, in which she announced the Determination of the XIX General Congregation. <\/p>\n\n

The video, interpreted together with Celina Garc\u00eda, Asunci\u00f3n Hern\u00e1ndez<\/strong>, Daughters of Jesus of the community of C\u00f3rdoba and Elisabeth Romero<\/strong> of the community of Monterrico, gives us a melody that springs from the shared experience and the faith that unites us. The lyrics are a deep echo of the hope that symbolizes for our Congregation this time of transmission of the Determination, inviting us to walk together, with confidence, towards the new that the Spirit gives us. <\/p>\n\n
