La fiesta de Cuasimodo se celebra en Chile el domingo siguiente de la Pascua de Resurrección. Por lo menos una vez al año los católicos deben recibir la comunión, así, en el día de Cuasimodo, el cura recorre los campos en carreta entregando el sacramento. Se hizo tradición en el campo acompañar el carruaje del cura para evitar que los bandoleros robaran el copón y los ornamentos de la misa. Hoy esa tradición continua y a lo largo de Chile se repite en ciudades y pueblos, particularmente en Colina esta fiesta se realiza durante tres domingos para llegar a todos los sectores.
The feast of Quasimodo is celebrated in Chile on Sunday after Easter. At least once a year Catholics must receive communion, and, on the day of Quasimodo, the priest goes through the fields in a carriage delivering the sacrament. It was tradition in the field to accompany the priest's carriage to prevent the bandits from stealing the chalice and vestments of the mass. Today that tradition continues throughout Chile and is repeated in cities and towns, particularly in Colina this event is takes place over three Sundays to reach all sectors.
