JULIHO DAVID EN MONTERREY MEXICO.

FELICIDADES Y BIENVENIDO.

Después de su viaje a Monterrey Nuevo León, México,
Juliho David mi hijo mayor regresa a casa.

Su viaje a la ciudad industrial de Monterrey se debió a su participación en el
XL Congreso Nacional de la Sociedad Matemática
realizado del 14 al 19 de octubre del presente año.


Viajo con algunos de sus compañeros representando a la
Universidad Benito Juárez de Oaxaca (U.B.J.O.).

Quiero compartir contigo algunas de las fotografías de los diferentes lugares que visito, entre ellos el famoso Cerro de la Silla, el estadio de fútbol del equipo Monterrey,
la Macro-plaza, parque fundidora, Paseo Santa Lucia
y muchos otros.

LO QUE ME DEJO MONTERREY
Por Juliho David Castillo.
Oct 21, 2007.

Nunca acabas de descubrir personas increíbles.
El que sabe es humilde, el que es soberbio teme que sepan que no sabe.
Nunca acabas de descubrir cuanto bien y cuanto mal puede haber en una persona,
menos en el mundo.
Nunca acabas de descubrir el mundo que existe en ti y fuera de ti.
A veces los fuegos artificiales y un muñeco gigante pueden más que un discurso político.
Dentro del frió del metal, se pueden fundir el alma y el genio del ser humano.
La grandeza del hombre se expresa en su reconcomiento del lo Eterno. El hombre no debe ser una vasija que se llena, sino un fuego que se enciende.


Bien hecho Juliho, muchas felicidades!

MONTE ALBAN.

Oaxaca México.
Welcome to my State.
*
*
*
Situated on a mountaintop just outside of the city lies Monte Albán, the impressive ruins that date back to 500 B.C. From here you can view the entire Oaxacan valley as it stretches to the mountains in the distance. This site was one of the first and most populous cities of Mesoamerica.
*
*
Over the centuries the design of Monte Albán has been rebuilt, and what remains is a collection of architectural styles and artificacts. The site's inception began with the Zapotec Indians, who began leveling the top of a mountain at the site that would become the Monte Albán ruins. The site was appropriated by the Mixtecs at the turn of the 13th century, who used the site as sacred ground as evidenced by the remaining tombstones of royalty. The site is large, and best experienced if you have a full day to spend there. Start with the I-shaped ball court at the eastern side of the Great Plaza, which also features various altars and pyramids inherent to the Zapotec architecture with sloping walls, wide stairs and ramps.
*
*
*
Work your way around the south side to the large platform, where you'll experience an unparalleled view of the surrounding valley. Next is the west side, which houses ceremonial platforms and pyramids. This is home to the famous Building of the Dancers, which is the earliest known structure at Monte Albán. It's covered with large stone carvings of naked figures. On the north side lie the monumental constructions of Monte Albán, the north platform with a stairway 80 meters long and 12 meters high. It's a labyrinth of palaces and temples, with subterranean tunnels, various altars and breathtaking heiroglyphs. Maps of the ruins can be bought in the gift shop as you enter the site.
*

To get to Monte Albán, take a bus from the Hotel Mesón del Ángel, Mina 518 at Mier y Terán. Autobuses Turísticos makes the trip seven times a day leaving on the half hour from 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., with return service from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on the hour and at 5:30 p.m. Round-trip fare is US $3.00. If you're driving, take calle Trujano which eventually turns into the road to Monte Albán, about 6 miles from the site.

OREMOS POR PASADENA.

Prayer is going to new heights at LAC! Come take your place on the wall!
God is posting his intercessors on the walls of LAC. We are a people of prayer, not willing to be silent until God makes the body of Christ a praise in the earth (Isaiah 62:6-7).
To seek for God's purposes to be revealed in and among us as a church and to be a transforming presence in our community and world is the goal of every gathering. Be a part of People of Prayer and make an impact through your prayers!

Lake Avenue Community Foundation is committed to community transformation by building bridges between faith and human experience. The foundation is a faith-based organization committed to transforming the San Gabriel Valley by developing and supporting initiatives in the areas of housing, education, literacy, hunger relief, healthcare and economic development. We believe that through our efforts within the community, God's love for each individual will be demonstrated. We believe God desires the removal of barriers due to age, economic status and ethnicity for community transformation to succeed.

This issue of Seasons magazine gives you a glimpse into Lake Avenue Church's vital and growing efforts to bring hope and healing to people outside our church family. Our community outreach is accomplished through the staff, volunteers and partnerships forged by Lake Avenue Community Foundation, along with many other ministries and agencies.

The articles you'll be reading this month describe how Lake Avenue Community Foundation builds kingdom values and the body of Christ in our local area; from a description of a life-changing Friday night inside Juvenile Hall to an uplifting Thursday morning coffee-and-sweet-bread encounter with a day laborer along Villa Street; to an afternoon learning program that touches hearts of the students and the tutors, to a heart-wrenching but glorious day at the movies with our homeless friends.

We established Lake Avenue Community Foundation in 2001 to raise funds for our local community outreach ministries, strengthen our ministry partners, launch new initiatives and form partnerships to address unmet social needs around us. Five years ago on April 1, the Community Outreach Division of Lake Avenue Church and Lake Avenue Foundation merged to become Lake Avenue Community Foundation (LACF).

Sunday Community Meal.
*
Our Sunday evening community meal for the homeless in our neighborhood has grown to feeding and ministering nearly 200 folks each Sunday night, sharing God's word with more than 40 in English and Spanish. We have also added breakfast and lunch on Fridays at the Villa 500 Community Outreach Center to connect more folks with our parish nurse, whose services are provided by QueensCare Health and Faith Partnership.

As you can see, we have a lot of hopes and plans for LACF! Please pray for God's direction and blessings on our efforts and if you are called to join with us, please come alongside us in the exciting ministry of bringing Christ's love to our neighbors.
