First Signs of Summer/Primeras señas de verano

 

Saturday March 5th,2010, 12:30pm to 2pm

Vamos a unirnos en un círculo de amistad en el cerco fronterizo. Todos son bienvendios dentro y fuera de la comunidad sorda. Vengan a conocer a gente dentro y fuera de la comunidad sordomuda através de barreras. Barreras entre estados unidos y México, barreras entre las culturas de la gente sorda y de los oyentes. ¡Vamos a trascender todas y hacernos amigos! Oportunidad de practicar/aprender la lengua de señas. También va a haber intérpretes de las lenguas de señas.

We'll be coming together in a circle of friendship at the border fence to get to know each other inside and out of the deaf and signing communities from both sides of the border. Everyone is welcome. An opportunity to teach/learn some sign language and learn more about the deaf culture as well as make friends across the US/Mexico border.

Join us as we gather on both sides of the border again this year at Border Field State Park to celebrate Christian hope, hospitality and unity.  In the contemporary practice of the Mexican church, we celebrate hospitality with a party as there was no room in the inn for Jesus.  In the ancient practice of the Church (Works of Mercy), we specifically take time to mourn for those who have died crossing the border.  See below for more details.

 
 

This year's theme for La Posada Sin Fronteras is "Jesus, Mary and Joseph: Presente!"  We will sing, hear guest speakers and celebrate the reconciliation that God brings to the world through Christ’s birth, even in the face of false borders that separate us.

Join us from 3pm-dark at Border Field State Park on Sunday, Dec.13.

Participants should dress warmly and be aware documents may be checked on entering and exiting park. It also involves a walk of about three quarters of a mile each way to the posada site.
