So this is the Ramirez family, we just baptized them this last Sunday and they are so amazing!! They love the gospel so much, we walked in Sunday night to have dinner with them and Amabeli, the mom, is in cooking with her phone playing the Book of Mormon! They feed us all the time, and they are so willing to help us with anything and do anything to help out the members of the ward. Anuer (the dad) has been trying to get his working Visa so that he can stay here in the US and work, since he is from Mexico. So he had been trying to get that for the last 3 months or so and the day after he got baptized it showed up! THEN the very next day all of the sudden he received his residency in the mail and he wasn’t expecting that at all which means he is basically now a US citizen! It is so hard for people to get that down here because there are so many illegals and we know that since he was baptized and did what God wanted him to do that he was blessed! Then yesterday he got a call saying he could go down to Mexico to visit his other 2 daughters that he hasn’t been able to visit for the last 3 months! The little girl, Alyson and the little boy, Luis are just adorable! It is so cool to see how much the gospel blesses families when they live it! I am excited to get to go with them to the temple to be sealed a year from now!!
