MAYAN CALENDAR NEWS: YOU ARE INVITED - INAUGURATION - 12/5/08 - OUR LADE OF
GUADALUPE ANGLICAN CATHOLIC MISSION
OK MAYAN READERS,
The heroic work of Pastor Jose Landeverde, Marilu and Jesus vargas, and the
other members who volunteer their time and resources in defense of our
immigrant community, deserves our whole hearted and generous support.
Day in and day out, these noble and humble people make tremendous sacrifices to
insure that the rights of human beings, being held in detention are protected,
and are vigilant in working with their families to provide for their emergency
needs.
Again, I reiterate that the monumental task that La Mision has undertaken
deserves our support.
en la lucha,
Carlos Perez

Our Lady of Guadalupe Anglican Catholic Mission invites everybody to the
inauguration of its new location, at 3442 W. 26th St., in Little Village
Since its inception, our Mission has been dedicated to defend the cause of the
immigrant community and to render services on its behalf no other organization
has. Among other services and actions we have taken, we opened a Pantry for the
families of immigrants arrested by ICE, we have helped them to pay the rent, we
started a clothing exchange program and we help their sons and daughters in
after-school programs.
As the Immigration authorities increased their operations against our
community, we increased our actions, helping dozens of people to get legal
help, we have trained more people on their rights in case of ICE operations, we
have demonstrated publicly in defense of the immigrant community and we have
helped to develop incipient leaders among those affected by Immigration.
At our new location we have the possibility to increase and develop even
further our actions, services and help, expanding some and creating other
programs to cater to the immigrant community.
On December 5th, we will have two activities: at 11 a.m., a formal inauguration
with Bishop Larry Shaver, Obl., O.S.B., S.T.D. of the Anglican Province of
America, Saint Augustine Dioceses and distinguished guests, and at 6 p.m. a
popular inauguration to celebrate the opening of our new location, with the
Little Village and Pilsen communities. We sincerely hope you can join us at
either time!

¡Favor de difundir ampliamente!
La Misión Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe invita a toda la comunidad a la
inauguración de su nuevo local, ubicado en el 3442 W. de la Calle 26, en La
Villita.
Desde su creación, nuestra Misión se ha destacado por defender la causa de los
inmigrantes y por proporcionar servicios y asesoría que ninguna otra
organización ha hecho. Entre otros servicios y acciones, hemos abierto una
Despensa para las familias de los arrestados por Inmigración, les hemos ayudado
con sus pagos de la renta, hemos iniciado un programa de intercambio de ropa, y
ayudamos a los niños con programas para-escolares.
Al endurecerse el trato hacia la comunidad inmigrante sin documentos, nosotros
hemos aumentado nuestras actividades, ayudando a docenas de personas a
conseguir abogados y ayuda legal, entrenando inmigrantes acerca de sus
derechos; hemos llevado a cabo movilizaciones y acciones públicas de defensa
comunitaria, y hemos ayudado a la formación de líderes entre los propios
afectados por Inmigración.
En nuestro nuevo local tendremos la posibilidad de ampliar nuestros servicios y
nuestra ayuda, expandiendo nuestros programas existentes y creando nuevos para
cubrir las necesidades de nuestra comunidad.
El 5 de Diciembre tendremos dos actividades: la primera a las 11 de la mañana,
con una inauguración formal a cargo del Obispo Larry Shaver, Obl., O.S.B.,
S.T.D. de la Provincia Anglicana de América, Diócesis de San Agustín, y con la
presencia de distinguidos invitados, y la segunda a las 6 de la tarde, para
festejar la apertura de nuestro nuevo local con la congregación y la comunidad
de La Villita.
