Immigrants work hard for families

Sat., July 18, 2015

Can I scream louder than Donald Trump? I am a white woman who grew up in the heart of the Columbia Basin and knew those “illegals.” They were dedicated workers in difficult hot conditions that brought food to my belly. They love the Lord and his son, Jesus Christ, and at the heart of their lives and culture is the family. These are the immigrants I knew.
