These special events and moments would not be possible without the dedication and hard work of our associates. They are the heart of this operation, providing care and authentic hospitality for all guests staying at our hotel.” “Today we will celebrate 40 years of successes as we begin looking to the future.” This year Hyatt Regency Phoenix associates are giving back, showing how they care for the community it’s been a part of for 40 years.

Chương Trình Lễ Phật Đầu Năm Bính Thân 2016 Của Tu Viện Phước Tường

Theo nguồn tin của Tu Viện Phước Tường

Vài lời ngõ trước thềm năm mới, Đông qua là xuân tới. Khi từng đàn chim én chao lượn trên bầu trời mang thông điệp báo hiệu mùa Xuân đang về. Không như mùa đông lạnh giá, mùa hè chói chang ánh nắng, mùa thu buồn với những chiếc lá vàng rơi, mùa xuân mang tới cho chúng ta một không khí ấm áp, dịu hiền. Cái thời điểm kỳ diệu của mùa Xuân khiến tâm hồn người ta bừng lên sự sống mới . Đó là một món quà vô giá tô điểm cho cảnh đẹp mùa xuân là những loài hoa sặc sỡ và đặc biệt không thể thiếu là cành mai, bông đào. Nó đã trở thành biểu tượng đặc sắc nhất trong những ngày Tết hàng năm. Trên khắp các làng quê, đường phố cây cối đều khoác trên mình một lớp chồi biếc xanh tươi mang đầy nhựa sống. Con người cũng không nằm ngoài lẽ tự nhiên ấy. Với tất cả dân tộc trên Trái đất, bất kể khác biệt về văn hóa, mùa xuân là mùa của tình yêu, mùa gửi gắm những yêu thương tới mọi người. Ðối với dân tộc Việt, đón Tết là đón mừng sự trở lại của mùa Xuân, được xem như kỳ tái sinh của thiên nhiên. Ðây cũng là lúc gia đình xum họp cho những người bận công việc nơi xa xứ trong cả năm, là dịp cho mọi người trong gia đình quây quần dưới một mái nhà, không chỉ người sống mà cả người đã quá vãng. Ðối với người Việt sống ở xứ người như chúng ta, Tết còn có thêm một ý nghĩa nữa: đó là tình hoài hương. Hơn bất cứ khoảng thời khắc nào trong năm, Tết là lúc mà tâm tưởng của chúng ta tự nhiên hướng về đất nước, quê hương, thành phố, làng mạc, nơi mà cha mẹ, họ hàng và bè bạn ta vẫn còn đang sống, nơi mà tiên tổ ông bà ta bao thế hệ đã an thân…. Mùa xuân đem đến cho con người sự gần gũi với thiên nhiên, cảm nhận và hòa mình vào sự thay đổi của sự giao mùa. Chính những sản vật được tạo hóa ban tặng cho Mùa Xuân làm cho chúng ta càng phải biết nâng niu và trân trọng nó thêm. Một năm mới đang đến với bao điều mới lạ, chúc mọi người có một mùa xuân vui vẻ, ấm áp và hạnh phúc để đón nhận hết tình yêu thương khi sự chuyển giao của năm đang tới gần. Trân trọng kính mời quý thiện nam, tín nữ Phật tử về chùa dự lễ giao thừa, tham quan lễ Phật cũng như nhận lộc và quà đầu năm từ Thượng tọa trụ trì vào Chủ Nhật ngày 7 tháng 2 và tham dự chương trình ca nhạc mừng xuân vào thứ Bảy ngày 13 tháng 2. Chương trình đã được dàn dựng đặc sắc với nhiều tiết mục như múa Lân, ca, múa, ảo thuật, hài kịch… mang âm hưởng mùa xuân. Nhân dịp năm mới – xuân Bính Thân, xin kính chúc quý quan khách, quý Phật tử, quý thiện nam tín nữ vô lượng an lạc, vô lượng cát tường, thành tựu mọi sở nguyện. Nam mô Bổn Sư Thích Ca Mâu Ni Phật. Kèm đây xin gởi quý vị tờ chương trình lễ Phật đầu năm và tờ poster cho chương trình văn nghệ của Tu Viện Phước Tường.

More Than 10,000 JDRF Supporters in Phoenix, AZ Expected at JDRF One Walk™ on April 9, 2016

Theo nguồn tin trên trang mạng của prweb.com PHOENIX, AZ (PRWEB) JANUARY 29, 2016 More than 10,000 advocates representing local businesses, families, schools, and other organizations are expected to participate in JDRF One Walk™ in Mesa on Saturday, April 9th at Sloan Park. The event is JDRF Desert Southwest Chapter’s 26th annual Walk, and is one of more than 200 community JDRF Walks nationwide that bring together hundreds of thousands of people each year who share JDRF’s vision to create a world without type 1 diabetes (T1D). The chapter has set a fundraising goal of more than $940,000 which will help fund critically needed T1D research. “Whether you have type 1 diabetes, know someone who does, or want to simply participate in an event that makes a huge impact on so many lives, JDRF welcomes you to our team,” said Paula Bommarito, Executive Director of JDRF Desert Southwest Chapter). “Thanks to the incredible supporters of JDRF One Walk, the community of Phoenix, AZ, and supporters like you, JDRF is able to direct even more funding toward important T1D research for the 1.25 million people with this serious disease. We are confident that together, we will reach our fundraising goal and ultimately be a part of turning Type One into Type None.” JDRF One Walk is expected to draw an enthusiastic crowd of all ages, driven to support a great cause while enjoying an event that includes entertainment, food, and fun in the stadium. On-site registration begins at 7:30am with a Walk start of 9am. The entire JDRF One Walk will be approximately 3 miles long. “We are excited to be partnering with JDRF for this event to help fund important type 1 diabetes research,” said Justin Piper, GM Sloan Park. “We are inspired by all those living with type 1 diabetes, and are proud to be part of JDRF’s efforts to rid the world of this disease.” JDRF One Walk is the most powerful peer-to-peer fundraising program in the world for T1D, raising more than $68 million annually. Since 1992, the event has raised more than $1 billion dollars for life-changing T1D research—research that has led to breakthrough discoveries, many of which have already moved into clinical trials and real-world testing. Although there has been considerable progress, there is plenty more we have yet to accomplish. As JDRF’s flagship fundraising event and the largest T1D event in the world, JDRF One Walk provides the perfect opportunity to get more involved in your local JDRF community and show your commitment to creating a world without T1D. JDRF gratefully acknowledges its local corporate partners for JDRF Desert Southwest Chapter’s Walk including Londen Companies, Arizona Ford Dealers, Sonora Quest Laboratories, Sloan Valve, SRP, Bashas’ Grocery Stores. About Type 1 Diabetes Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease in which a person’s pancreas loses the ability to produce insulin—a hormone essential to turning food into energy. T1D strikes both children and adults suddenly and is unrelated to diet or lifestyle. It requires constant carbohydrate counting, blood-glucose testing, and lifelong dependence on injected insulin. With T1D there are no days off, and there is no cure. About JDRF JDRF is the leading global organization focused on type 1 diabetes (T1D) research. JDRF’s goal is to progressively remove the impact of T1D from people’s lives until we achieve a world without T1D. JDRF collaborates with a wide spectrum of partners and is the only organization with the scientific resources, policy influence and a working plan to bring life-changing therapies from the lab to the community. As the largest charitable supporter of T1D research, JDRF has invested nearly $2 billion in charitable research over the past 45 years.
