Faithful and True...

***imagine "Faithful & True" wedding recessional playing here***

This picture is right after the "church wedding" of this beautiful couple. He is the uncle of Erika, one of the La Palma sisters. When we visited with Erika in September she told us about her uncle. He lives up in the mountain and doesn't have money to come into town very much. He and his wife were married several years ago in a legal ceremony by the mayor's office but had always wanted to have a "church blessing ceremony." They wanted to know if we could help them with this. So, on Monday, September 15th, Ralph performed the desired ceremony with the help of Jim Avalos as translator. One of the sweetest parts of the ceremony was the kiss at the end. The groom was going to be very content with a peck on the cheek but the bride was not. She pulled him in for a straight-on kiss. They were both very happy and grateful for the help and we were happy to have been able to assist.

Dios le bendiga,
