IMAGINE THEM DRESSED IN WHITE, IN THE TEMPLE!
La Familia Perez -- Families Can Be Together Forever -- celebrated here in Mexico City! We happened to be at the Ixtapaluca Stake Center to attend the baptism of three wonderful people, when we noticed a special event happening in the Cultural Hall. A couple had been to the Mexico City Temple earlier in the day to be sealed, and they were celebrating this wonderful event with family, friends and ward members that evening in the stake center. We were thrilled to be able to go in and congratulate them and celebrate with them for a few minutes. This couple, the Perez's, had married two years ago civilly and now had been sealed. This couple chose to celebrate with many loved ones around them - with great, humble joy. She wore her wedding dress including the veil, and he had on his best suit. A simple meal and simple decorations adorned the cultural hall. As we entered, the Hermana Perez, (the bride), was handing out simple favors she had made. So sweet and sincere!
