On Sunday, December 19, 2021, in Mobile Alabama, the Christmas charity event United with Ties of Love was held and more than 500 children were impacted.
The joy expressed by the families and the different communities is an unforgettable feeling.
The cultural union plus the human warmth was felt.
Thanks to David Triana for making us part of the history of Ramón González and for his unconditional support with the informative newspaper Conexion.
Grateful to all the people who said present with their ideas of love this Christmas.
Thanks mainly to Toys for Tots for making this activity possible by blessing and bringing cheer to the children, families and different churches in our community. Among them Cody Road Church, Tree of Life Church, Heaven’s Gate Church, The Teacher’s Workshop, City Hope Church. All in all, it was a great blessing to our Alabama and Florida communities.
We had 286 children enrolled with Toys for Tots, but when collecting the toys God manifested himself leaving us for the end and being blessed in such a way that we heard the United States Marine telling us “Being the last ones has its benefits” because they tripled us the number of registered toys.
That is a true Christmas Miracle!
Thanks to Pastor Fernando Leite of Mobile Junior Academy Christian School, its leaders and students for providing us with the facilities to serve the community. Thanks to Nailim Sánchez for providing his excellent services to plan this great event. Thanks to all the volunteers who were present to organize and serve the public. Without you it would not have been possible.
Today I can say that the seed we planted on Sunday, December 19, 2021 will bear fruit to continue blessing families and children in the years to come. The Lazos de Amor Christmas benefit was a huge success!
On behalf of the entire Hispanic and American community we say, Thank you
Ramón González is dancing in heaven.
