“As more Hispanics arrived, Decatur’s neighborhoods became more ethnically mixed, which Ramirez likes. Once scarce foods here like fresh cilantro and jalapenos became abundant. Life as a Hispanic in Decatur grew more comfortable.
But one of the biggest changes for Ramirez came in church. He and his family at first found Spanish-language Mass offered monthly in Decatur’s Catholic church. Ten to 15 people came.
Today, 500 or more attend Spanish Mass on Sundays, and Ramirez has become one of the clergy”
