Daniel and Rebekah would like to thank you guys for posting these photos of the iglesia. It brought me so many memories. I remember as a kid that we (all of the households) in el rancho had to contribute in some way to the construction of the church. Some people that had the means would donate money, other people who couldn’t would donate their time in labor, this was called ‘fainas’. I myself worked many days in the construction of it. The columns, the arches…oh those arches so heavy to lift yet so beautiful to see once they were up. Please do post photos when you have them. Hope you too get over the flu soon.
Ah yes, just in case you don’t remember who I am. I am Pilar’s cousin.
