1.加庇護所發放Warming up the night

Canada is in the heart of winter, and Tzu Chi volunteers in Vancouver are reaching out to the needy, with winter essentials for the homeless in four of the emergency overnight shelters under the Salvation Army. The volunteers turned the cold night into a memorable party with plenty of songs and laughter.

加拿大正值寒冷,溫哥華的慈濟志工在當地四個救世軍的庇護所,分送保暖衣物給街友們,志工們帶來了歡樂,一起唱歌跳舞,溫暖了這個冬夜。


2.寒流發放打包 Helping Sanchong”s homeless stay warm

Over the Christmas weekend, temperatures in Taiwan plummeted due to a cold front. To help the homeless in New Taipei City stay warm, Tzu Chi volunteers from Sanchong put together 90 care packages to distribute to these often forgotten members of society.

耶誕週末,台灣入冬的第一波寒流報到,全台溫度一路下滑,為了讓新北市的街友能夠溫暖過冬,三重區慈濟志工準備九十份物資,送給這些被社會遺忘的人。


《 靜思語 》

True environmental protection lies in loving the mountains and the oceans and in cherishing everything in this world.

真正的環保,是愛山、愛海,愛惜一切萬物。


3.巴西耶誕發放 Early Christmas in Francisco Morato

In Brazil, Tzu Chi volunteers from Sao Paulo regularly hold distributions and free clinics in Francisco Morato, a backwater town about 50 minutes drive north of the city. In light of the holiday season, volunteers recently delivered some early Christmas presents to students in need, and also held a Christmas banquet for the students and their parents.

巴西聖保羅的慈濟志工,福仁西斯哥 莫那多,一個離聖保羅北方約50分鐘車程的貧困社區,舉辦發放與義診,由於聖誕節即將到來,志工特替為貧困的學生送來文具,也為學生和他們的家長準備聖誕大餐。


4.智利醫院關懷Christmas for young patients

Staying in South America, the next story takes us to Chile”s capital city, Santiago, to a hospital that provides healthcare to children from poor families. Recently, Tzu Chi volunteers visited with gifts for the young patients, who could not go home for Christmas, and went around each ward with a doctor dressed up as Santa Claus to add some warmth to the festive holiday.

繼續來看南美洲,但是我們來到智利聖地牙哥,慈濟志工前往一間貧民兒童醫院,為無法回家過耶誕的病童帶來禮物,志工還跟著扮聖誕老人的住院醫師,一同為病童舉辦耶誕活動。


5.★1226歷史的今天 On this day, December 26.

1991 Soviet Union dissolution
After surviving a coup attempt in August 1991, Soviet president Mikhail Gorbachev announced his resignation on Christmas and handed over power to Boris Yeltsin. The Soviet Union was formally dissolved on this day in 1991, and replaced by the Russian Federation.

1995 TC Yonghe office
Tzu Chi volunteer Shao Caixia (邵彩霞) and her daughter donated two stories of a building in Yonghe (永和) of the now New Taipei City, to Tzu Chi which later became the local contact point. On this day in 1995, Master Cheng Yen arrived to encourage volunteers to continue promoting recycling and serving their community. As the number of members and volunteers increased, the search began for a bigger office, and the Yonghe office became a retreat center.

2003 Iran Bam Earthquake
On this day in 2003, an earthquake measuring 6.7 magnitude struck Bam in southeast of Iran, causing over 26,000 deaths and 30,000 injuries. Tzu Chi volunteers in Jordon, Turkey and other areas began assessment work, and handed out rice, blankets and other daily necessities to disaster victims. Mid and long-term reconstruction programs were also implemented.

2004 Southeast Asia tsunami
A 9.1 magnitude earthquake off the west coast of Sumatra, Indonesia triggered a tsunami on this day in 2004 that killed over 230,000 people in more than 12 countries. The tsunami brought waves up to 30 meters in height, inundating coastal communities. Tzu Chi volunteers around the globe began a worldwide fundraising campaign to help disaster victims rebuild their lives.

1991年,蘇聯解體,俄羅斯聯邦自從八月份一場短暫的政變,主席團主席戈巴契夫在耶誕節宣布辭去共黨總書記職務,將國家權力移交給俄羅斯總統葉爾欽,在1991年這天通過決議,宣布解散蘇聯,蘇聯解體改稱俄羅斯。

1995年,慈濟雙和聯絡處,北區首座據點,慈濟志工邵彩霞母女將永和精華地段的兩層樓捐出,做為慈濟在中永和地區的據點,在1995年這一天,證嚴法師前往勉勵志工力行環保回收,服務社區,隨著會員人數的增加,再另覓土地興建雙和聯絡處,現址則改為永和共修處,繼續深耕鄰里。

2003年,伊朗巴姆強震,慈濟馳援送暖,在2003年這一天,芮式規模六點七的強震,發生在伊朗東南部的巴姆城,造成兩萬六千人死亡,三萬人受傷,約旦和土耳其地區的慈濟志工前往當地勘災,並發放大米和毛毯等生活必需品給災民,同時也展開中長期的重建計劃。

2004年,南亞強震掀海嘯,大愛真情膚苦難,印尼蘇門答臘外海,在2004年這天發生芮氏規模九的強震,引發海嘯波及南亞十二個國家,造成23萬人死亡,海嘯帶來的浪高達30公尺,淹沒沿海岸的國家,全球慈濟志工立即動員,展開募款活動,協助災民重建家園。


6.南亞海嘯 Life after 2004 South Asian Tsunami

As you just saw in our On This Day feature, a 9.0 magnitude earthquake off Sumatra, Indonesia, on this day in 2004, triggered a massive tsunami that brought severe destruction to over 12 South Asian countries. In the immediate aftermath, Tzu Chi carried out disaster survey and relief work in the worst-hit areas in Thailand, Malaysia, Sri Lanka and Indonesia. In Aceh, Indonesia, and Hambantota in Sri Lanka, Tzu Chi also implemented mid- to long-term reconstruction programs, to help tsunami survivors start their lives anew.

如歷史今天的報導,在2004年這一天,在印尼發生規模九級的地震,引發了海嘯,嚴重波及12個南亞國家,災難後,志工們馬上在泰國、馬來西亞、斯里蘭卡以及印尼展開勘災及救災工作,在印尼的亞齊、斯里蘭卡的漢班托塔,更列入慈濟中長期援助重點地區,幫助災民重建家園。


《 衲履足跡 》 On Healthy Eating 談健康食

The impurity of disasters is caused by human beings, and only human beings are capable of bringing peace. The first step is to take on a meatless diet.
Vegetarian food is healthy; people who adopt the diet respect all living beings, have a loving and healthy mind and body.

「劫濁」是人為的,也唯有人能讓世間恢復清淨;從「食」的習慣開始「清淨在源頭」,就是素食。素食是「健康食」,素食者懂得尊重生命而能以愛行善,身心健康。


7.菩提種子心(3)吳崇德 ”Naughty egg” turns good

Tzu Chings are Tzu Chi”s collegiate youth volunteers, who devote their youths to helping other people. We have been introducing you to some Tzu Ching alumni, to find out where they are now. Today we meet former Tzu Ching, Wu Chongde, who is now a kindergarten teacher. Wu Chongde”s loving and child-like nature make him a hit with both the students, and his fellow teachers.

來自大學的慈青社成員,奉獻心力關懷他人,我們也帶大家看過已經畢業的慈青學長,他們都找到了自己的定位,今天帶大家認識一位慈青學長吳崇德,他現在是一位幼稚園老師,他有耐心、有活力,讓孩子們和其他老師都喜歡他。


8.歲未楊王金妹 Forgive and forget, Taiwan

How many people could survive what the woman in our next story has been through? Yang-Wang Jinmei lost both her daughter and grandchild, as her daughter went into labor in the delivery room, in 1998. And then, seven years ago, her husband was beaten to death by a gang of youths. The brave woman chose to forgive and forget, and her secret is to let go.

有多少人能度過像以下這則報導,這位婦人一樣的遭遇呢?慈濟志工楊王金妹,在1998年時女兒和未出生的孫子,不幸在產台往生,還好有慈濟法親的陪伴
走出悲痛,但過了七年,丈夫在公園運動,被不良少年毆打致死,楊王金妹選擇了原諒,全然放下仇恨,讓一切放下。


9.歲末葉雪霞 The story of Ye Xuexia

Ye Xuexia is a teacher who has also had her share of bitterness in in life. Suffering from a deformed left hand since birth, eight years ago she was diagnosed with Parkinson”s disease. However, thanks to her participation in the Tzu Chi Teachers Association, she learned to accept her condition, and find a new level of wisdom in her life. Although she moves with difficulty, Ye is determined to volunteer with Tzu Chi. Let”s meet this remarkable woman.

同樣歷經挫折與打擊的,是慈濟教聯會老師葉雪霞,從小就左手殘疾,八年前又得到巴金森症,但她走入慈濟教聯會,學會接受身體上的缺陷,更從中得到智慧,儘管雙手都不方便,她堅持做志工,帶您認識這位堅強的女人。


END:美發放墨裔

Finally today, Tzu Chi volunteers brought gifts of food and blankets to struggling families in a Hispanic community in northern California, so that they did not have to put off their holiday festivities this Christmas. We”ll leave you with these images. Thank you for watching Da Ai Headlines. Goodbye.

最後,來看慈濟志工帶來食物籃和毛毯,來到北加州墨裔貧困家庭,讓他們能夠度過耶誕佳節,一起來看看,感恩收看,再會。(2011.12.26)
