Tres escuelas en Sonsonate reflejan el estado de la educación pública en El Salvador en 2025. La remodelación de la escuela de Las Higueras se reactivó solo después de que se viralizaron imágenes de las carpas donde los alumnos recibieron clases durante todo 2024. La escuela en El Bambú, remodelada en 2023 con cooperación alemana, fue clausurada por baja inscripción. Lejos de los reflectores, en Tapalshucut, los alumnos siguen recibiendo clases en una carpa con logo de Unicef.
Veinte trabajadores del Ministerio de Salud subieron a un bus en Sonsonate para ir a protestar contra el recorte presupuestario a Salud para el año 2025. Nunca llegaron a la marcha: tres retenes policiales los detuvieron. Cuatro días después, todos los pasajeros del bus fueron despedidos. Un abogado del Minsal les notificó verbalmente que sus plazas habían sido suprimidas. Hasta la fecha esos empleados aún no conocen las razones de su despido y tampoco han recibido documentos sobre su indemnización. A través del testimonio de tres de ellos -cuyos nombres han sido modificados para proteger su identidad-, fotos, vídeos y un audio, El Faro ha logrado reconstruir esa mañana y los días posteriores en que fueron separados del Ministerio de Salud arbitrariamente.

1 Samuel 7:3 | Preparar vuestro corazón a Jehová... y os librará. Llamado al arrepentimiento (versículo 3): Samuel les dice a los israelitas que deben volver a Dios de todo corazón, deshacerse de ídolos y servir solo a Él. Si lo hacen, Dios los librará de los filisteos. Renovación del pacto (versículo 4): Los israelitas se despojan de los ídolos y sirven a Dios. Oración de Samuel (versículo 5): Samuel convoca a los israelitas a Mizpa y ofrece sacrificios a Dios, orando por ellos. Victoria sobre los filisteos (versículos 6-11): Mientras los israelitas se reúnen en Mizpa, los filisteos atacan. Samuel ora y, en respuesta, Dios causa un gran estruendo que confunde a los filisteos, permitiendo a los israelitas derrotarlos. Establecimiento de un monumento (versículo 12): Samuel erige una piedra y la llama "Ebenezer", que significa "hasta aquí nos ha ayudado Jehová", como símbolo de la ayuda de Dios. Paz y prosperidad (versículos 13-14): Después de esta victoria, los filisteos son derrotados y no vuelven a invadir el territorio israelita. Israel experimenta paz y prosperidad durante el resto de la vida de Samuel. Ministerio de Samuel (versículos 15-17): Samuel actúa como juez de Israel, viajando de un lugar a otro para juzgar y orar por el pueblo, estableciendo su hogar en Ramá. En resumen, este pasaje destaca la importancia del arrepentimiento, la fidelidad a Dios y cómo, a través de la oración y la acción de Samuel, Israel experimenta una victoria significativa sobre sus enemigos, reafirmando su relación con Dios.

Galatas 6:1-10 Restauración (versículo 1): Si alguien peca, los que son espirituales deben ayudarle a restaurarse con humildad. Cargar las cargas (versículo 2): Los creyentes deben ayudar a llevar las cargas de los demás, cumpliendo así la ley de Cristo. Humildad (versículo 3): Nadie debe pensar que es superior; cada uno debe examinar sus propias acciones. Responsabilidad personal (versículos 4-5): Cada persona debe llevar su propia carga y ser responsable de sus acciones. Generosidad (versículo 6): Los que reciben enseñanza deben compartir lo que tienen con sus maestros. Siembra y cosecha (versículos 7-8): Se enfatiza que lo que uno siembra, eso cosechará; quien siembra para la carne cosechará corrupción, y quien siembra para el Espíritu cosechará vida eterna. Persistencia en el bien (versículo 9): No debemos cansarnos de hacer el bien, ya que a su debido tiempo cosecharemos si no desmayamos. Hacer el bien a todos (versículo 10): Debemos aprovechar cada oportunidad para hacer el bien, especialmente a los de la fe.

Marvin y Medardo eran dos hermanos que vivían en el caserío El Jobo, en Santa Elena, Usulután, y que fueron capturados el cinco de octubre de 2023. María Elena, su madre, dice que eran campesinos y que la Policía los capturó a las nueve de la noche, sin ningún motivo. Cuando ella preguntó por qué los capturaban, la Policía le respondió que por el régimen de excepción; cuando ella cuestionó sobre las pruebas del delito, le dijeron que era el régimen de excepción. Nada en concreto. El argumento para mandarlos al penal de Izalco por agrupaciones ilícitas fue único: el régimen de excepción que inició en El Salvador desde marzo de 2022 y que deja sin derechos básicos a los ciudadanos y otorga prerrogativas a policías y militares. Marvin, de 23 años, estaba sano al momento de su arresto, dice su familia. Estuvo 18 meses detenido en el penal de Izalco, en Sonsonate, y ahí enfermó de tuberculosis, cáncer pulmonar, desnutrición y diarrea; fue sometido a cirugías sin el consentimiento de la familia y obtuvo su libertad condicional en junio de 2024, luego que se viralizó un vídeo en Tik Tok, donde su cuerpo desnutrido, esquelético, aparece postrado en una camilla del Hospital Rosales. Estuvo en su casa de techo de teja y piso de tierra durante un mes, sin poder caminar y apenas balbuceando algunas palabras para contar a su madre cómo lo maltrataron en el penal. Marvin murió el 28 de julio de 2024. Tras la muerte de Marvin, María Elena teme por su otro hijo: José Medardo, de 24 años. Medardo está detenido en el penal de Izalco desde hace 23 meses y su familia no sabe nada de él. La audiencia en su contra estaba programada para agosto de 2024, pero un juzgado de San Miguel la reprogramó para 2025. “Un año más, otro año más y así le van aumentando”, crítica María Elena, quien cuenta en esta entrevista cómo el régimen de excepción ha dejado a su familia al borde la hambruna. Ella, su hija y su nieta de cinco años ya sufrían el calvario de la pobreza y ahora que el régimen ha capturado a sus dos hijos dice que a veces solo comen una vez al día porque tienen que ahorrar para comprar el paquete que lleva al penal. En esta entrevista cuenta sus penurias y dolor.
El señor Orellanaes un comerciante de la zona norte de San Salvador que durante casi dos décadas fue víctima de las pandillas. En el año 2005, una empresa distribuidora de alimentos lo despidió y, para enfrentar su desempleo, montó un pequeño negocio de reciclaje. Con el nacimiento de su empresa comenzaron los problemas con las pandillas: el Señor Orellana vivía en una colonia controlada por el Barrio 18 y su negocio operaba en un territorio controlado por la Mara Salvatrucha-13. Ambas pandillas exigían el pago de la renta al comerciante. Fue su esposa quien contó a El Faro la historia. Es ella quien da este testimonio. Él está preso. El señor Orellana se negó a pagar la renta y creyó que el problema se solucionaba contratando el servicio de vigilancia privada. En julio de 2012, la pandilla respondió con el asesinato de Carlos Rodríguez, de 70 años, el anciano que vigilaba el negocio. Tras este homicidio, y ante nuevas exigencias para el pago de la renta, dos familiares del señor Orellana emigraron hacia Estados Unidos y solicitaron asilo político. En febrero de 2017, esos familiares recibieron asilo político en Estados Unidos, por ser víctimas de las pandillas, según documentos en poder de El Faro. El Señor Orellana no abandonó el país. Él denunció el caso de extorsión en la Fiscalía, siguió trabajando y, según su esposa, negándose siempre a pagar la renta que le exigía tanto el Barrio 18 como a la Mara Salvatrucha-13. Pese a los documentos fiscales que confirman que durante años fue una víctima de las pandillas, el 4 de diciembre de 2023, a 19 meses de iniciado el régimen de excepción, la Policía lo capturó por el delito de agrupaciones ilícitas. La familia presentó un legado de documentos para demostrar que la empresa del señor Orellana factura más de un millón de dólares al año, que tiene una estabilidad económica; la familia documentó las responsabilidades del señor Orellana con sus tres hijas y también las amenazas y ataques que recibieron por parte de las pandillas. Un juez contra el crimen organizado de San Salvador ordenó su libertad inmediata en la primera audiencia, realizada diez días después de su detención, pero Centros Penales no cumplió con la orden. Un mes después, en enero de 2024, el señor Orellana fue recapturado por agrupaciones ilícitas en el penal de Izalco, en Sonsonate. La Fiscalía lo acusó de un “nuevo” delito ante otro juez contra el crimen organizado de San Salvador. Sin embargo, la familia logró, por medio de unos abogados, acumular el proceso al juzgado que le concedió la orden de libertad en diciembre del año pasado. La familia denuncia que el comerciante es víctima de una “doble persecución” (ser acusado dos veces del mismo delito, por los mismos hechos), algo que prohíbe la Constitución salvadoreña. El juez aún no resuelve el caso y el señor Orellana continúa detenido. La esposa del señor Orellana narra a continuación su calvario y el que antes padecieron a manos de los pandilleros.

Estoy en la planicie de la Iglesia de la Asunción en Izalco, tierra sagrada para los indígenas, conmemorando la matanza indígena de 1932. Participan músicos de gran categoría cuya posterior conversación es muy animada. Llega Lilo González, salvadoreño de Armenia, Sonsonate, músico compositor, de mucho éxito en Estados Unidos, donde vive. En 1990, Lilo ganó el Festival OTI y destaca en los premios Billboard. También ha ganado 5 premios WAMMIEs en el área metropolitana. Se ha presentado en el Kennedy Centers' Millenium Stage, en el New York Lincoln Center, en la inauguración de la presidencia de Clinton y muchos otros lugares y eventos importantes. Cosas del destino dirán, pero quise conocer a Lilo cuando escuché su música en el disco Migraciones Mirando al Sur con dos de sus piezas musicales. Es invitado a participar, así que fuera de agenda interpreta dos de sus canciones originales. Terminado el evento caminamos a degustar el platillo ritual en la Casa Templo, en donde Lilo bebe sopa de res porque no hay cucharas. Acepta gustoso conversar sobre sus impresiones musicales tanto de Estados Unidos como de El Salvador y de lo que en verdad deben sentirse orgullosos los salvadoreños. [La grabación tiene algunos sonidos raros, pero es culpa mía que por la prisa no ajuste los micrófonos. ¡Ah! por cierto, las canciones que acompañan esta entrevista son, por supuesto, de Lilo.]

On today's episode I have the other half of Otra X Favor podcast, David Hernandez. A fellow Salvi and Austinite. Finding out our families were in such close proximity both in El Salvador and in the states was unbelievable to me. His madre is from Sonsonate, El Salvador even from the same Colonia de Santa Marta like mine! Her journey to come to the United States stemmed from the journey that her own mother began. From one luchadora to the next their consejos will always be able to live on because we all saw it with our own eyes. The guerrera mindset that these women encompass is unmatched. Through the work of a wonderful local organization Casa Marianella, that provides shelter and help to immigrants here in Austin, they were able to jump start their life. It was wonderful getting to hear the story of the help that this organization has provided first hand. This story is a special story because it depicts how one person can create a safe haven for immigrants that eventually changes a life. If given the chance of a new life, we as children to immigrant parents, have seen the value that it will bring to this country. We discussed the things we missed out on since both of our parents didn't drive. The isolation that sometimes it came with when we couldn't do the things our other friends were doing. Having to say no I cannot go to that, not because we didn't get permission ,but because we didn't have the means of transportation. When we were already feeling the isolation because we were different the added obstacles were an added struggle. I wish that if you are listening to this episode and feel inclined please donate to Casa Marianella here. Casa Marianella welcomes displaced immigrants and promotes self-sufficiency by providing shelter and support services such as ESL classes, legal help and more.Their ultimate vision is that all immigrants arriving in Austin will have safe housing and access to the services they need to be successful.Feliz Navidad!Support the show

Juan Jose Ernesto 'Neto' Menéndez Argüello belongs to the fourth generation of coffee farmers in his family. His father died in 1995. After completing his studies at university, Neto had the opportunity to start working in the coffee industry at J. Hill & Cia in 2000. He left J. Hill & Cia after five years and began his second coffee experience at JASAL. Both companies gave him the opportunity to meet 'Grano de Oro' from another perspective, allowing him to learn the art and passion of cupping. He says those are very important in his life, and that they give him the opportunity to apply the coffee knowledge and experience he's gained through the years. During his time in the coffee world, he has participated in various events like the Cup of Excellence (National Jury from 2003 to 2011), Q Auction, Q Grader, and the Star Cupper program organised by SCAA and CQI. Las Brumas is located between 45 to 60 minutes from Santa Ana city. It has a cultivated area of 60 hectares' worth of coffee yield, all of which is at an altitude ranging from 1,450 to 1,700 metres above sea level (m.a.s.l.). It produces around 600 bags of coffee each year, and has an area of 35 hectares of virgin mountain at an altitude from 1,700 to 2,000 m.a.s.l. The farm is located in the Sonsonate department near the area known as San Blas. Las Brumas has very rich volcanic soil; it's deep and very fertile, and has been generated by different Ilamatepec and Izalco volcanic eruptions throughout history. One of the most important elements is the microclimate. It's very misty at the farm for most of the year, and that's why Neto decided to name the farm Finca Las Brumas. This amazing microclimate is generated when the warm air from the Pacific Ocean collides with the high peaks of Los Volcanes National Park (which comprises of the Santa Ana, Cerro Verde and Izalco volcanoes). Due to its location between these three famous volcanoes in El Salvador, this unique microclimate reduces the amount of daylight that the coffee trees receive. This helps the coffee trees have a very slow photosynthesis, improving the maturation process; this, in turn, improves some attributes that are closely related to maturity, like the aroma, sweetness, acidity and flavour. This is a medley of citrus and sugar. Up front it’s like lemon icing, before shifting into sweet clementines with a little hint of brown sugar in the background. The fruit keeps going on the aftertaste with passionfruit and orange.

Las Brumas is located between 45 to 60 minutes from Santa Ana city. It has a cultivated area of 60 hectares' worth of coffee yield, all of which is at an altitude ranging from 1,450 to 1,700 m.a.s.l. It produces around 600 bags of coffee each year, and has an area of 35 hectares of virgin mountain at an altitude from 1,700 to 2,000 m.a.s.l. The farm is located in the Sonsonate department near the area known as San Blas. Las Brumas has very rich volcanic soil, deep and very fertile, which has been generated by different Ilamatepec and Izalco volcanic eruptions throughout its history. One of the most important elements is the microclimate. It's very misty at the farm for most of the year, and that's why Neto decided to name the farm Finca Las Brumas. This amazing micro climate is generated when the warm air from the Pacific ocean collides with the high peaks of the Volcanoes Park (which comprises of the Santa Ana, Cerro Verde and Izalco volcanoes). Due to its location between these three famous volcanoes in El Salvador, this unique microclimate reduces the amount of daylight that the coffee trees receive. This helps the coffee trees have a very slow photosynthesis, improving the maturation process, and this, in turn, improves some attributes that are closely related to maturity, like the aroma, sweetness, acidity and flavour. Sultana and lemon both jump out from this cup, but with a drizzle of a dark caramel coming through and adding an extra complexity to the fruit sweetness. As it fades, there's a hit of dark chocolate which lingers into the aftertaste.

Asunción de María o Asunción de la Virgen: el cuerpo y alma de la Virgen María, la madre de Jesucristo, fueron llevados al Cielo después de terminar sus días en la Tierra. No debe confundirse con la Ascensión, que hace referencia al propio Jesucristo.? Este traslado es llamado Assumptio Beatae Mariae Virginis? (Asunción de la Bienaventurada Virgen María) por los católicos, cuya doctrina fue definida como dogma de fe (verdad de la que no puede dudarse) por el papa Pío XII el 1 de noviembre de 1950. La Iglesia católica celebra esta fiesta en honor de María en Oriente desde el siglo VI y en Roma desde el siglo VII. La festividad se celebra el 15 de agosto. Primeras referencias litúrgicas: La primera referencia oficial a la Asunción se halla en la liturgia oriental; en el siglo IV se celebraba la fiesta de El Recuerdo de María,3? que conmemoraba la entrada al Cielo de la Virgen María y donde se hacía referencia a su asunción. Esta fiesta en el siglo VI fue llamada la Dormitio (????????) o Dormición de María, donde se celebraba el fin de la vida terrena y la asunción de María al Cielo. En el siglo VII el nombre pasó de «Dormición» a «Asunción».3? Relatos apócrifos: Los relatos apócrifos sobre la asunción de María aparecen aproximadamente desde el siglo IV y V. El más difundido de los «evangelios asuncionistas» y uno de los más antiguos en el oriente bizantino es el Libro de San Juan Evangelista, el Teólogo.4? Este y otros escritos apócrifos tuvieron gran influencia en diversas homilías y escritos de los oradores orientales, como por ejemplo Juan de Tesalónica, Juan de Damasco, san Andrés de Creta, san Germán de Constantinopla, entre otros. Si bien no tenían ni tienen carácter histórico, la Iglesia católica vio en estos escritos el fondo teológico que existía y del cual los relatos eran expresiones adornadas. La Asunción en Occidente: Debido a factores políticos y lingüísticos, ya que las relaciones con oriente eran tensas y el griego no se dominaba todavía, la doctrina de la Asunción de María no fue desarrollada sino hasta el siglo XII donde aparece el tratado Ad Interrogata, atribuido a san Agustín, el cual aceptaba la asunción corporal de María. Santo Tomás de Aquino y otros grandes teólogos se declararon en su favor. San Pío V, en el siglo XVI, al momento de reformar el Breviario, quitó las citas del "Seudo-Jerónimo" y las sustituyó por otras que defendían la asunción corporal. Benedicto XIV señaló la doctrina de la asunción como pía y probable pero sin señalarla aún como dogma. La influencia del libro llamado el Seudo-Jerónimo el cual ponía en duda si María fue asunta al cielo con o sin su cuerpo (aunque manteniendo la creencia en su incorrupción) hizo surgir la duda de si la asunción corporal estaba incluida en la celebración de la fiesta. A esto se sumó otro libro que gozó de fama entre los conventos y cabildos, llamado el Martirologio, del monje Usuardo (el cual murió hacia el año 875) el cual alababa la reserva de la Iglesia de aquella época que preferiría no saber "el lugar donde por mandato divino se oculta este dignísimo templo del Espíritu Santo y nuestro Señor el Dios". En 1849 llegaron las primeras peticiones a la Santa Sede de parte de los obispos para que la Asunción se declarara como doctrina de fe; estas peticiones aumentaron conforme pasaron los años. Cuando el papa Pío XII consultó al episcopado en 1946 por medio de la carta Deiparae Virginis Mariae, la afirmación de que fuera declarada dogma fue casi unánime. El 1 de noviembre de 1950 se publicó la constitución apostólica Munificentissimus Deus en la cual el papa, basado en la tradición de la Iglesia católica, tomando en cuenta los testimonios de la liturgia, la creencia de los fieles guiados por sus pastores, los testimonios de los Padres y Doctores de la Iglesia y con el consenso de los obispos del mundo, declaraba como dogma de fe la Asunción de la Virgen María: Por eso, después que una y otra vez hemos elevado a Dios nuestras preces suplicantes e invocado la luz del Espíritu de Verdad, para gloria de Dios omnipotente que otorgó su particular benevolencia a la Virgen María, para honor de su Hijo, Rey inmortal de los siglos y vencedor del pecado y de la muerte, para aumento de la gloria de la misma augusta Madre, y gozo y regocijo de toda la Iglesia, por la autoridad de nuestro Señor Jesucristo, de los bienaventurados Apóstoles Pedro y Pablo y nuestra, proclamamos, declaramos y definimos ser dogma divinamente revelado: Que la Inmaculada Madre de Dios, siempre Virgen María, cumplido el curso de su vida terrestre, fue asunta en cuerpo y alma a la gloria celestial.5? Constitución apostólica Munificentissimus Deus, 1 de noviembre de 1950 Fiesta de la Asunción de María en Novara di Sicilia. En la Arquidiócesis Primada de México es la patrona y en este día 15 de agosto el Arzobispo primado de México celebra la Santa misa con todos sus presbíteros y diáconos y la presencia del pueblo mexicano. En la iglesia dedicada a su veneracíón en la ciudad alteña de Jalostotitlán, Jalisco, en México, se celebra la fiesta desde el 31 de julio hasta el 15 de agosto. En el estado de Aguascalientes también es festejada con peregrinaciones de las distintas iglesias hasta la catedral del estado con múltiples carros alegóricos iniciando el 1 de agosto y culminando el 15 del mismo con la ya tradicional romería de la Asunción. En la Epacta Oficial de la Conferencia Episcopal Española solo se señala, en el día de la Asunción de la Virgen, a dos advocaciones marianas6? con rango de solemnidad: Nuestra Señora de los Reyes, Patrona de Sevilla y de la Archidiócesis de Sevilla y Nuestra Señora de la Caridad, en la Diócesis de Asidonia-Jerez. Numerosas iglesias y parroquias de toda España, en especial en la costa valenciana, la tienen por titular.8? Otras muchas, en este día, celebran a sus Vírgenes Patronas, en especial las que no fueron halladas de manera milagrosa, que suelen dejarse para el 8 de septiembre, festividad del Nacimiento de la Virgen. Patrona de Miraflores de la Sierra, Madrid, las fiestas se celebran durante toda la semana del 15 de agosto. A partir de mediados del siglo XX comenzó la fiesta de "La Gritería de Penitencia" también llamada "La gritería chiquita" en la ciudad de León, en Nicaragua, la noche del 14 de agosto de cada año, víspera de su festividad. Todo el pueblo sale a las calles de la ciudad visitando los altares preparados en las salas y porches de las casas y al grito "¿Quién causa tanta alegría? ¡La Asunción de María!" se reparten dulces típicos. El 15 de agosto es día de asueto en las ciudades de León, Granada, Juigalpa y Ocotal. En la Basílica Menor de Santa María de Elche se celebra todos los años durante las fiestas en honor a la Asunción de la Virgen María una representación lírico-teatral en la que se reflejan diversas tradiciones procedentes de los relatos apócrifos. El Misteri d'Elx, gozó de tal reconocimiento que ya en 1632 Urbano VIII a través de una Bula le exime de la prohibición de representar obras teatrales en el interior de las iglesias que había acordado el Concilio de Trento. Asimismo, hay que destacar que en 1931 fue nombrado Monumento Nacional por el Gobierno de la II República española. Por último, el 18 de mayo de 2001, la Unesco lo declaró Obra Maestra del Patrimonio Oral e Inmaterial de la Humanidad.9? El Misteri de la Selva del Camp es otro ejemplo del impulso del teatro religioso medieval. En esta ocasión se centra en el drama sacro asumpcionista a la Virgen María. Junto al texto del Misterio de Elche son los dos actos sacramentales más antiguos que se conservan en Europa. En el caso del Misteri de la Selva, fue hallado por el historiador Joan Pié i Faidella en el Archivo Parroquial Selvatá junto a otros textos del siglo XIV. Actualmente estos textos están en el Archivo Histórico de la Archidiócesis de Tarragona. Desde el año 1980 se representa de forma ininterrumpida en la parroquia de Sant Andreu de la Selva del Camp todos los 14 y 15 de agosto. En 1994 obtuvo la mención nacional de cultura popular a la mejor iniciativa artística. Esta representación donde transcurre la muerte, sepulcura, resurrección y Asunción de María al cielo ha sido representada en Tarragona, Elche, Roma y Jerusalén. La patrona de Serradilla, Cáceres En esta localidad cacereña existe una gran talla del escultor vallisoletano Luis Salvador Carmona, encargada por el gremio de labradores de esta villa, y realizada en el año 1749, según su peana, con la firma de su autor, además de ser la Patrona titular de la Iglesia Parroquial Nuestra Señora de la Asunción, es también la Patrona del pueblo. Es una bellísima imagen, y una de las mejores representaciones marianas de Luis Salvador Carmona, Dicha talla transmite el arrebato místico de la Asunción, con diez ángeles que elevan al cielo a la Virgen, típica del Barroco, al igual que el maravilloso retablo que la alberga. La Virgen mide 113 cm de altura. Conocida en el pueblo como Nuestra Señora, o la Virgen de los Niños (por sus 10 querubines). Posee una redonda corona de plata y más de 56 piedras preciosas, entre diamantes, rubíes y esmeraldas, y unos brillantes pendientes de oro, típicos del traje regional de Serradillana. Fue restaurada en 1994. Su fiesta es el 15 de agosto. Tradicionales en este pueblo las novenas que comienzan el día 5, a las 21:00 de la tarde, hasta el día 13, terminando el novenario con la ofrenda floral. Destacamos los famosos Rosarios de la Aurora cantados, de este pueblo de gran arraigo a las 6 de la mañana y por las calles principales de este pueblo, realizados los sábados de novenas a la Virgen. El día 14 las vísperas, y el 15 a las 9 de la mañana misa, y a las 12:00 misa mayor, por la tarde el ofertorio tradicional, y por la noche baile y verbena en la Plaza de la Constitución. El himno es popular de Serradilla, de autor anónimo, y dice lo siguiente: Gloriosos querubes, te elevan gozosa corona de reina, te espera al llegar. Por hija escogida, por madre y esposa, el rey de los cielos te va a coronar. - ‘MADRE EN TU ASUNCIÓN GLORIOSA, TE ACLAMAMOS CON FERVOR, DE TU LUZ ESPLENDOROSA MUESTRANOS EL RESPLANDOR.’ Un manto de luna, orlado de estrellas, Con manos divinas quisiera bordar. El pueblo que amante, sus flores más bellas Con sus corazones, te ofrece en tu altar. MADRE EN TU ASUNCIÓN…’ Como dulce Madre consuelas al triste, Y eres el refugio para el pecador. Bendice a este pueblo, al que tú escogiste, Prendiendo en sus almas tu fuego de amor. MADRE EN TU ASUNCIÓN…’ Si los labradores, de esta humilde villa, Tan excelsa madre, quisieron tener, Tú en sus corazones, sembraste semilla, Que de amor divino, logró florecer. MADRE EN TU ASUNCIÓN GLORIOSA, TE ACLAMAMOS CON FERVOR; DE TU LUZ ESPLENDOROSA MUESTRANOS EL RESPLANDOR. La patrona de Cutervo, Perú Virgen de la Asunción, 1560 hasta la actualidad. Cutervo- Perú Virgen de la Asunción en Cutervo, Perú. La historia Cutervina revela que la veneración de nuestra Virgen de la Asunción en Cutervo, tiene sus orígenes en los primeros años de evangelización de estas tierras, casi desde su fundación (10 de octubre de 1562). Dícese que la Doctrina y Distrito de Cutervo fue fundado por el Padre Agustino Juan Ramírez, el 15 de agosto de 1560, bajo la advocación de la Asunción de la Virgen. La Sagrada Efigie, patrona de nuestra tierra, fue traída desde Quito, celebrándose en su honor, desde tiempos coloniales siendo la primera y una de las más antiguas de Latinoamérica conjuntamente con la feria de Vilque y Guadalupe en México, la “Feria de Cutervo”. El reverendo padre José Carceller Galindo decidió darle mayor esplendor al culto. El primer inventario de la cofradía verificado el 17 de febrero de 1687, se le entregaron al primer mayordomo de la Virgen, Juan de Cubas. Cuatro mantos o vestidos, una corona de plata y varias alhajas. En la Actualidad existen seis mayordomías que son hermandades denominadas del año y Una Hermandad denominada del "Medio Año" En Cutervo, se celebra la “Festividad de la Virgen de la Asunción”, desde el 1 de agosto hasta el 17 de agosto, siendo el día principal el 15 de agosto. Desde los inicios del siglo XX hasta la década del 40, la Feria de Agosto en Cutervo adquirió su mayor apogeo al adquirir renombre Regional y Nacional. Cutervo era el paso obligado de los habitantes de la Amazonía en su camino hacia la Costa. Las ferias en honor a la Santísima Virgen de la Asunción, en el presente es Patrimonio Histórico Cultural de la Provincia, mantiene su importancia tradicional, ya que acuden a ella peregrinos y comerciantes de los pueblos vecinos además de los coterráneos residentes en el Perú y en el Extranjero, quienes visitan a Cutervo a venerar a nuestra Santísima Virgen. La patrona de Asunción, Paraguay Es patrona de Asunción, capital del Paraguay.10?11? Fue la primera patrona del país, que nació bajo su amparo. La fiesta se inició con la fundación de la casa fuerte con el nombre de la Asunción de Nuestra Señora, origen de la ciudad de Asunción, el 15 de agosto de 1537. En este fortín fue entronizada la imagen de la Inmaculada Concepción o la Conquistadora, que luego fue renombrada como Asunción de Nuestra Señora.12? En Asunción se realiza el novenario a partir del 6 de agosto. Los festejos centrales son el 15 de agosto (feriado nacional), día en que se lleva la imagen que se encuentra en el oratorio del Panteón de los Héroes hasta la catedral, donde se celebran varias misas. Los paraguayos recuerdan esta festividad visitando y/o participando de una misa en cualquier iglesia cercana bajo esta advocación, o aquella que les sea más significativa por motivos sentimentales, afectivos o históricos. Además, se realizan jineteadas (desfile de equinos) y una procesión náutica de la imagen de la Virgen desde el Arsenal de la Armada Paraguaya, navegando luego por el río Paraguay, finalizando con el desembarco de la imagen en el puerto de Asunción y la procesión por tierra hasta la Catedral Metropolitana.13? La patrona de Juigalpa, Nicaragua El 15 de agosto de cada año, se celebran las fiestas dedicadas a la Virgen de la Asunción. Desde hace 400 años la ciudad está bajo su protección. Estas fiestas incluyen actividades religiosas y procesiones, alboradas y juegos pirotécnicos; así como fiestas populares y corridas de toros, desfile hípico, tope de toros, ferias y presentaciones culturales. La patrona de Cabo Frío, Brasil La Iglesia de Nuestra Señora de la Asunción (Nossa Senhora d'Assunção, en portugués) dio luz a la ciudad de Cabo Frio. Por orden del rey João V se construyó en 1615 en el estilo de los jesuitas, sus altares son de estilo barroco: el altar mayor está la imagen de la patrona, ricamente tapizado de madera tallada hecha en Lisboa, la capital de Portugal. Hoy en día, es tradición en cada 15 de agosto, hacer una procesión con la imagen de la Virgen por la parte central de la ciudad y también se hacen conciertos musicales y fiesta gastronómica en su homenaje. La patrona de Sébaco, Nicaragua Nuestra Señora de la Asunción de Sébaco Hasta el año de 1833, la ciudad estaba situada a la orilla del río Viejo. Fundada sobre el antiguo pueblo indígena de Cihuatl Coatl, Santiago de Sébaco fue capital del Corregimiento de Chontales (Capitanía General de Guatemala) en la época colonial. Ahí se celebró a Santiago Apóstol como su patrono. Pero una inundación asoló todo el valle y las aguas del río hicieron desaparecer al legendario pueblo. Esto ocurrió en las vísperas de la fiesta de la Asunción de María, la noche del 14 de agosto de 1833. Los sobrevivientes del desastre vieron una luz a lo lejos, situada hacia el sureste. En medio de sus ruegos a la Madre de Dios, creyeron que esa era la respuesta a sus súplicas, por lo que avanzaron hacia la luz en procesión con la imagen de la Virgen de La Asunción. La luz se ubicó sobre una colina rocosa hasta donde subieron y en el lugar donde la luz desapareció construyeron un templo con las mismas dimensiones del de Santiago de Sébaco. Hasta ahí se trasladó la población y en agradecimiento a la Virgen, le dedicaron el nuevo templo y la nueva ciudad se erigió con el nombre de "Nuevo Sébaco de la Asunción". Desde ese momento la Virgen María en su advocación de La Asunción pasó a ser la titular del pueblo. Patrona de la Capital de Guatemala La capital del Reino de Guatemala, al ser trasladada al valle conocido como de la Ermita o de las Vacas, se dedicó a la Virgen de la Asunción, por lo que el nombre oficial de la capital de Guatemala lleva por nombre Nueva Guatemala de la Asunción. Para esta fecha, desde tiempos de la colonia, se llevan a cabo celebraciones en el área ahora conocida como Hipódromo del Norte; las festividades van desde la tradicional feria, que comienza el 1 de agosto, hasta la procesión en la cual se procesiona la imagen de la Virgen por sectores de las zonas 2 y 1 de la actual ciudad capital. Patrona de Chacas, Perú Procesión de la Virgen de la Asunción de Chacas en su día central. Artículo principal: Fiesta de Mama Ashu La virgen es venerada en la provincia de Asunción desde finales de la década de 1710 como fiesta mayor de la hoy desaparecida hacienda San José de Mushojmarca, y celebrada en Chacas desde 1755. La celebración es realizada voluntariamente por familias a los que se denomina «capitanes». Estos reciben ayuda de los «guellis», personas cercanas a la familia que ayudan a subvencionar los costos de la celebración. Generalmente los amigos y familiares donan dinero, víveres o ayudan en alguna actividad relacionada con la atención de los invitados durante la víspera y el día de capitanía. Las fiestas se extienden desde el 13 de agosto hasta el 22 del mismo, con cinco noches de fuegos artificiales, una carrera a las cintas y dos corridas de toros.14?15?

Patrona de Cupilco, Tabasco, México En el año de 1638 se creé que apareció una imagen de la Virgen de la Asunción, en la playa de la Barra de Tupilco, Paraíso Tabasco, a un humilde grupo de pescadores, quienes se organizaron y dirigieron en peregrinación hasta su lugar de origen, sin embargo por las noches la imagen se movía mirando hacia el norte, por lo que la llevaron a otras comunidades y en todas, la imagen se movía por las noches mirando hacia una dirección específica. Finalmente, la llevaron al pueblo de Cupilco y allí la imagen dejó de moverse, decidiendo los pobladores edificarle una ermita en su honor.

En este episodio de Cartas de la diáspora hablaré de Consuelo Suncín, la escritora salvadoreña que fue condesa en París, al casarse con el conde Antonio de Sant Exuperi, autor de El Principito. Consuelo fue también viuda del famoso escritor guatemalteco Enrique Gómez Carrillo. Pequeña, morena, graciosa, Consuelo tenía una belleza singular, según la describen, resaltando una personalidad encantadora. Consuelo Suncín nació a principios del siglo XX en la ciudad de Armenia, del Departamento de Sonsonate en El Salvador, en el seno de una familia de ricos terratenientes. Sus padres, el coronel Félix Suncín y Ercilia Sandoval, tuvieron tres hijas: Ana Dolores, Consuelo y Amanda. La rosa de El principito es un homenaje de Saint-Exupéry a Consuelo Suncín. Su infidelidad y dudas acerca del matrimonio son simbolizadas por el campo de flores que se encuentra el príncipito en la Tierra. Entrevista a Mireille Escalante, sobrina de Consuelo Suncín, realizada por Tania Primavera Preza en El Salvador y publicada por el diario digital Contra Punto. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/oscar-estrada0/message
This is the 2018 crop of the coffee Dale Harris used to win the 2017 World Barista Championship in Seoul, South Korea. Juan Jose Ernesto 'Neto' Menéndez Argüello belongs to the fourth generation of coffee farmers in his family. His father died in 1995. After completing his studies at university, Neto had the opportunity to start working in the coffee industry at J. Hill & Cia, in 2000. He left J. Hill & Cia after five years, and began his second coffee experience at JASAL. Both companies gave him the opportunity to meet 'Grano de Oro' from another perspective, allowing him to learn the art and passion of cupping. He says those are very important in his life, and that they give him the opportunity to apply his coffee knowledge and experience that he's gained through the years. During his time in the coffee world, he has participated in various events like the Cup of Excellence (National Jury from 2003 to 2011), Q Auction, Q Grader, and the Star Cupper program organised by SCAA and CQI. Las Brumas is located between 45 to 60 minutes from Santa Ana city. It has a cultivated area of 60 hectares' worth of coffee yield, all of which is at an altitude ranging from 1,450 to 1,700 m.a.s.l. It produces around 600 bags of coffee each year, and has an area of 35 hectares of virgin mountain at an altitude from 1,700 to 2,000 m.a.s.l. The farm is located in the Sonsonate department near the area known as San Blas. Las Brumas has very rich volcanic soil, deep and very fertile, which has been generated by different Ilamatepec and Izalco volcanic eruptions throughout its history. One of the most important elements is the micro climate. It's very misty at the farm for most of the year, and that's why Neto decided to name the farm Finca Las Brumas. This amazing micro climate is generated when the warm air from the Pacific ocean collides with the high peaks of the Volcanoes Park (which comprises of the Santa Ana, Cerro Verde and Izalco volcanoes). Due to its location between these three famous volcanoes in El Salvador, this unique micro climate reduces the amount of daylight that the coffee trees receive. This helps the coffee trees have a very slow photosynthesis, improving the maturation process, and this in turn improves some attributes that are closely related to maturity, like the aroma, sweetness, acidity and flavour. This coffee was produced as part of the Las Brumas Wild Coffee Project where Neto is using previously unfarmed forested land for coffee production, but doing so in a thoughtful and careful way so as not to remove any of the flora and fauna, and so that the space remains – primarily – a forest. Instead of clearing the land to give him a blank canvas for a new coffee growing area he's working with the forest to create a unique environment and a unique coffee. The soil of the forested area had never been used to grow coffee in before and had benefited from years of its own natural fertilisation system due to all the forest floor goodness, and the constant supply of twigs and leaves dropping down to continually enrich the soil. Growing coffee in this way affected the speed of the coffee's growth (lots of shade) and took 7 years from initial planting to the first harvest, in a normal area of coffee production that would have only been 3 years but the extra cover from the forest makes everything happen at a slower speed. That slowness also applies to the maturation of the coffee cherry too, similar to growing at really high altitudes - it takes its time and does things slowly because of the conditions resulting in a 15% longer maturation than Neto sees on the rest of Las Brumas. In the cup you’ll get a creamy sweetness up front, with hints of brown sugar. Tangerine takes over next, swinging subtly in to orange peel on the finish.

Actualmente nuestra sociedad va de mal en peor porque hay muchos hijos rebeldes y muchos padres irresponsables. Podríamos buscar y estudiar muchos otros factores, pero la desobediencia y la irresponsabilidad es lo que al día de hoy tiene a las familias destruidas. En esta predicación nuestra hermana Mindy nos invita a reflexionar sobre la importancia de honrar y bendecir a nuestros padres. No importa lo bien o lo mal que hayan sido nuestros padres con nosotros, nuestro deber es cumplir el mandamiento y recibir del cielo los beneficios.

Los tiempos son difíciles, eso todos lo sabemos… Pero no basta con saber que hay tribulaciones en el mundo, en nuestro país, en nuestra colonia, en nuestro pasaje… No basta con saber que mis vecinos tienen problemas. No basta con saber que mis familiares tienen necesidad… Nosotros debemos hacer algo… Y ese algo es clamar a Dios para que Él haga milagros y trasforme el mundo en el que vivimos.

Subir al monte, no es cosa fácil. Porque son pocos los que están dispuestos a subir y ponerse cara a cara con su creador… Son pocos los que están dispuestos a tener una verdadera vida de oración, y en cada ida al monte hablar con Dios. Son pocos los que están dispuestos a subir… Y dar testimonio que con el Poder de Dios SI SE PUEDE. Abramos nuestros corazones a Dios, y poco a poco, vayamos entregándonos a ese milagro constante llamado Oración. Porque Dios sigue hablando a su pueblo… Y debemos estar atentos a su palabra.
