Fourteenth Sunday of Ordinary Time/ Decimo cuarto Domingo de Tiempo Ordinario 2016 (Year C/ Ano C)
Saint of the Week/ Santo de la Semana Nuestra Señora de
Chiquinquirá Patrona de Colombia
Our Lady of Chiquinquira, Patroness of Colombia
Dia de Fiesta/ Feast Day: Julio/
July 9
La tradición nos cuenta que hace cuatro siglos don Antonio de Santana, encomendero de los pueblos de Suta y Chiquinquirá,
solicitó al español Alonso de Narváez (h. 1560) que pintara una imagen de la Virgen del Rosario, para colocarla en una pequeña
capilla.
La pintura fue realizada sobre una tela de algodón de procedencia indígena, media 44 pulgadas de alto por 49 de ancho, Alonso de Narváez usó colores al temple, realizó una imagen de la Virgen del Rosario con el Niño Jesús, y a los lados puso al Apóstol San Andrés y a San Antonio de Padua.
El cuadro fue ubicado en la capilla que poseía don Antonio en sus aposentos de Suta, estuvo allí durante más de una década, pero la capilla tenía el techo de paja, lo que provoco que la humedad deteriorara la pintura hasta dejarla completamente borrosa.
Tras la muerte de Santana, su viuda, se trasladó a Chiquinquirá, hacia el año 1577-78. La imagen fue llevada a ese lugar, pero se encontraba en tan mal estado que fue abandonada en un cuarto, habitación que tiempo atrás había sido usada como oratorio.
Al comenzar el año 1586, se estableció en Chiquinquirá, una piadosa mujer, María Ramos, nacida en Sevilla (España), la señora reparó el viejo oratorio y colgó en el mejor lugar de la capilla, la deteriorada pintura de la Virgen del Rosario.
El día 26 de diciembre de 1586, María salía de la capilla, cuando pasó frente a ella una mujer indígena llamada Isabel y su pequeño hijo. En ese momento Isabel grito a María "mire, mire Señora..." Ella dirigió la mirada hacia la pintura, la imagen aparecía rodeada de vivos resplandores, prodigiosamente los colores y su brillo original habían reaparecido, los rasguños y agujeros de la tela habían desaparecido. Con tan maravilloso suceso se inició la devoción a Nuestra Señora de Chiquinquirá.

Augustine Zhao Rong and companions
Saint Augustine Zhao Rong was a Chinese diocesan priest who was martyred with his 119 companions in 1815. Among their number was an eighteen year old boy, Chi Zhuzi, who cried out to those who had just cut off his right arm and were preparing to flay him alive: "Every piece of my flesh, every drop of my blood will tell you that I am Christian." This optional memorial is new to the USA liturgical calendar and will be inscribed on July 9.
Augustine Zhao Rong and companions Christianity arrived in China by way of Syria in the 600s. Depending on China's relations with the outside world, Christianity over the centuries was free to grow or was forced to operate secretly.
The 120 martyrs in this group died between 1648 and 1930. Most of them (eighty-seven) were born in China and were children, parents, catechists or laborers, ranging from nine years of age to seventy-two. This group includes four Chinese diocesan priests.
The thirty-three foreign-born martyrs were mostly priests or women religious, especially from the Order of Preachers, the Paris Foreign Mission Society, the Friars Minor, Jesuits, Salesians and Franciscan Missionaries of Mary.
Augustine Zhao Rong was a Chinese soldier who accompanied Bishop John Gabriel Taurin Dufresse (Paris Foreign Mission Society) to his martyrdom in Beijing. Augustine was baptized and not long after was ordained as a diocesan priest. He was martyred in 1815.
Beatified in groups at various times, these 120 martyrs were canonized in Rome on October 1, 2000.
