Ticos

Saturday night I attended a Family Home Evening with the elders in a tiny living room of the sister in the center. Several members (about 10) from our part of Santa Ana were there - we had a great lesson (I only got the jist), sang songs, played telephone and ate chicken fried rice. Warm, sweet and so committed to the gospel! I enjoy their spirit and genuine love for the Lord and others even when I can't understand them.

Farmer's Market every Sunday in Santa Ana
Sunday was Corpus Christi - a celebration of the body of Christ. The designs are made with a template and are made of grains and rice.  The young girls who have completed their catechism classes (that's Fabiola) walk in procession around the block where all four calles each have a different design. As they walk through the beautiful grains, they symbolize the sharing of the Savior's message and sacrifice outside the walls of the church with the people of the pueblo.
