Riverdale, NY (Sunday)
Dear Friends, 1/23/11
Mona and I went to the LDS Kingsbridge Ward #1 with Xiomara this morning. It was a wonderful experience to be part of the hispanic ward. Even though I do not speak Spanish I could feel the gentle spirit emanating and enveloping the congregation. La Sociedad de Socorro (The relief society) responded very positively to my message. They are planning a bone marrow donor drive.
After church Xiomara's mother, Soledad, made a delicious meal of homemade tortillas, spicy chicken and rice. It was yummy.
Soledad's children and grandchildren stopped in all afternoon to welcome her and to have some of Madrecita's home cooking.
