First Communion, and Confirmation. o We attend mass every Sunday.

Fourth Wave of Immigration

o Our family came at a very young age o Like most Mexicans our family came through the deserto Walking days without any food or water

Education

Our families didn't have a good education. Since are parents came from Mexico it was very hard to pay for education and they couldn't afford it so they had to quit school at a very young age so they can work and help their families.

Push Factors

Better employment opportunities Better living conditions Better education Higher wages

Primary Sector

The main reason why our families decided to come to the U.S. was because there was a lot of jobs that involved farming that paid higher wages than in Mexico.

Festive December

There are many celebrations during the month of December such as posadas, El Dia de la Virgen, y La llegada de Niño Dios.
