We arrived in Reno at around 7:30 this evening greeted by about 50 people from the Reform Immigration 4 America Campaign at a local church. As usual as OCCCO is spoiled, Leonel led the bus in song with his guitar with the OCCCO unofficial theme song (No hay dios tan grande come tu, There is no God greater than you). After a short gathering in the sanctuary with powerful testimony from leaders from SFOP and BOCA both in the bay area, the Sisters from the parish provided us with dinner. Its so great to see how much support there is from everyone and how we're being received so far. We left at about 9:30 destination Utah which is 8 hours away. I'm excited because Leonel will be providing testimony in Salt Lake at 7:30am with Idalia translating in English. I am a bit bummed because I accidentally deleted the footage from Sacramento, don't ask me how. I'll need to ask Fernando for his footage. Well, its late and the bus is dark so I am going to try to get some sleep after I prep Leonel. Talk to you from Salt Lake City.
