Francis Church: Cooks? This “Tradition” Is Still Welcome
The infirmary of the secularised Jesuits in Loyola, Spain, organised a tamborrada (drum festival).
According to InfoSJ.es (January 26) the preparation – like making hats, drums, flag, sticks, stickers, and choosing the music – was part of the success.
Wooden planks on the knees served as makeshift drums. Father Paco Monteserín SJ opened the event by placing it in the context of popular – but Covid suspended – tamborradas, drawing a comparison with the Early Church where all believers “lived united and happy and shared their joy and their goods.”
According to Monteserín, “living the traditions of a people” is living the spirit of the Gospel – granted that these “traditions” have no connection to the Roman Liturgy.
