<span class="bodytext"><strong>En la Iglesia San Antonio de Padua, en Falls Church, voluntarios reparten alimentos a muchos hispanos necesitados</strong></span><br />
<span class="bodytext"><strong> </strong><br />
</span> <br />
<span class="bodytext">Por Ana Cubías<br />
El Tiempo Latino</span><br />
<span class="bodytext"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="bodytext">La tarea empieza muy temprano con una oración, y termina muy tarde. Pero la disposición de servir de la red de voluntarios de la iglesia San Antonio de Padua, en Falls Church, siempre está allí para los que la necesitan. Su misión: conseguir comida, llenar cajas y repartirlas entre las personas que llegan puntuales todos los días a la 1 pm al dispensario de la iglesia.</span><br />
<br />
<span class="bodytext">“Todo lo hacemos fundados en el evangelio y la alegría más grande para mí es ver el rostro de un niño cuando recibe galletas”, dijo a El Tiempo Latino Ubaldo Cisneros, administrador del banco de alimentos de la iglesia.</span><br />
<span class="bodytext"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="bodytext">Cisneros, de 61 años y originario de Michoacán, México, tiene 16 sirviendo en la parroquia y hace tres comenzó a repartir comida para los más necesitados, la mayoría hispanos desempleados. Hoy, cuenta con una red de cerca de 100 voluntarios, desde los que recogen donativos en restaurantes hasta los que ayudan a organizar las cajas.</span><br />
<span class="bodytext"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="bodytext">Además, reciben donaciones de restaurantes y empresas como Cheesecake Factory, Panera Bread, Edén Market y Río Grande. También compran alimentos con el dinero que recolectan en la iglesia. <br />
</span><br />
<span class="bodytext">Según Cisneros, se entregan un promedio de 150 canastas diarias que contienen: frijoles, arroz, pollo, verduras frescas y enlatadas, frutas, galletas y pan. “A veces me siento cansado, pero cuando veo a toda esta gente que esa noche tendrá que comer siento que estoy recibiendo más de lo que di”, expresó con una sonrisa mientras organizaba víveres en una caja. </span><br />
<span class="bodytext"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="bodytext">La salvadoreña Sara Estrada, de 61 años, es el brazo derecho de Cisneros, organizando la entrega de cajas. Según Estrada, quien asiste a la iglesia desde 1969 y desde hace tres es voluntaria, cuando empezó tenían un promedio de 30 personas al día. Hoy, sólo en la semana del 22 de marzo entregaron 579 cajas. “Aquí estamos haciendo una obra de Dios”, señaló Estrada, mientras ponía frijoles en una bolsa. <br />
</span><br />
<span class="bodytext">Cisneros está satisfecho con su trabajo, pero dice que aún tiene tres deseos por cumplir: tener un refrigerador, un congelador y un lugar más grande para almacenar los alimentos.</span><br />

<br />
Las Alfombras means “the carpets” in Spanish. However, within the Catholic Church, it is a special carpet made of colored materials like sawdust, rice, fruit, or flower petals depicting scenes from the life of Jesus and particularly of Holy Week. For those who meticulously work to create it, it is a form of prayer and veneration, with each scene depicted the special responsibility and privilege for the individual/s who work on it.<br />
<br />
<br />
The idea of creating Las Alfombras started in Spain and was inspired by Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday. That custom was brought to Guatemala by Spanish Franciscan missionaries where it became and has remained part of the culture of the people of Guatemala. This gift has now been brought to the United States and especially to Saint Anthony of Padua parish thanks to the Guatemalan community of Northern Virginia. <br />
Las Alfombras is an ephemeral work of art, being removed after the procession of the Via Crucis on Good Friday enters the Church.<br />
<br />
Las Alfombras is recognized throughout the world as demonstrating the faith and devotion of Catholic people and being a blessing for all who come to see it.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5905930734314937229.post-81639161226166155572010-03-31T10:01:00.000-07:002010-03-31T10:01:08.111-07:00Pictures from the Palm Sunday Procession<div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Pt5xiAkEsH8/S7N5xShXVaI/AAAAAAAACeo/qkDpU6WAfRE/s1600/ramos2010+007.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" nt="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Pt5xiAkEsH8/S7N5xShXVaI/AAAAAAAACeo/qkDpU6WAfRE/s320/ramos2010+007.JPG" /></a><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Pt5xiAkEsH8/S7N52hmdKSI/AAAAAAAACew/V-obguOzY0k/s1600/ramos2010+014.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" nt="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Pt5xiAkEsH8/S7N52hmdKSI/AAAAAAAACew/V-obguOzY0k/s320/ramos2010+014.JPG" /></a></div><br />

Armory. Each year thousands of Hispanic-American Catholics from all over the East Coast and beyond attend this two-day event.<br />
</div><br />
Funds that are raised during this event from ticket and food sales then are used to fund a mission and aid trip by members of the group to a poor area of a randomly selected country in Latin America. The faith, hope, and charity of those our young travelers meet in these villages always provides much more than they ever give.<br />
<br />
This past year, Uruguay was selected as the country and our own former Youth Minister and now Capuchin seminarian, Manuel Avilés, was one of the travelers along with Norma Chavarria, Carla Medina, and Marta Rivera<span class="Apple-style-span" style="white-space: pre;"><span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">. </span></span><br />

Dear Brothers,<br />
<div><br />
</div><div>I want to thank you for your prayers and support during my mission to Uruguay. Attached are some pictures that transmit a bit of the grace-filled experiences I lived during the trip.<br />
<div><br />
The mission was in the Dioceses of Melo located in the northeast part of the country next to Brazil. Melo is one of the poorest dioceses in the country, but fortunate to have hosted Pope John Paul II in 1988, which inspired the Academy Award movie <i>The Pope's Toilet</i>.<br />
</div><div><br />
</div><div>During the mission, I had the privilege of working with three other missionaries from St. Anthony of Padua...Since our arrival and until our departure we were welcomed and accompanied by Bishop Heriberto Bodeant, Bishop of Melo, and by a religious community of woman (MJVV) from Peru. The mission consisted in bringing food, clothing and the word of God to four villages and three towns where the religious community serves. Within these towns and villages, we visited an orphanage and a house of rehabilitation for drug addicts.<br />
</div><div><br />
</div><div>The Bishop has also posted pictures and a day-by-day report of the mission in his blog:<br />

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Pt5xiAkEsH8/S0uy-IOa8zI/AAAAAAAACUM/oHP6QAoWHOA/s1600-h/Parish+Town+Hall+2010+001.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" ps="true" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Pt5xiAkEsH8/S0uy-IOa8zI/AAAAAAAACUM/oHP6QAoWHOA/s320/Parish+Town+Hall+2010+001.jpg" /></a><br />
</div><br />
<br />
The goal was to review the top 10 hopes as voted by the parish community at Mass and select the top 3. <br />
<br />
As part of the event, we were provided wonderful breakfast treats and coffee...<br />
<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Then we got down to business under the direction of Fr.

After prayer and discussion of each of the 10 hopes voted by the Parish community, each attendee was given 3 dots to place on their own top 3 hopes.<br />
<br />
