To All of the families, Alvarado and Sanchez, from Ray, Nancy and Cindy Bernal: Through the years we have Never forgotten you, your kindness, your grace and the Love you have shown to not only our children, Isaac and Candida but to our Grandchildren Jubilea, Jaiden and Judah, shared through the union of marriage. May the peace of God which passes ALL understanding be with you now and until God says "Son, Go Get My Children!!" May the tears you shed be tears of Joy, for we know that Ramiro was Saved by Grace, called to the Ministry and FAITHFULLY SERVED HIS MASTER, 'til his last breath! Philippians 4:4 says:
"Rejoice, Rejoice and again I say Rejoice"!! Rejoice in the knowledge that there is no more pain or suffering and someday SOON, for time is short, There will be that Great Meeting in the Sky! What a Day that shall Be, When Our Jesus Christ We'll SEE. When we look upon His Face, the ONE who Saved us by His Grace. And He'll Take US by the Hand and LEAD us to the PROMISED Land, What a Day, Glorious Day that Will Be!! Hold fast to each other, find comfort in each others arms, Find Peace and Understanding through Jesus Christ our Blessed Redeemer, Savior and Soon Coming KING!! You are all in our prayers, May God keep you and may the blessings flow!! With Love in Christ!, The Bernals

My beautiful Pastor Alvarado my Dad here on earth who was my spiritual Dad... I didn't have my birth daddy here on earth because Jesus took him home when I was only 4years old. Pastor and sister Alvarado always gave me so much Love and joy always opened their home to me as a little girl to spend weekends with my sister Ana who always made me feel like I was her little sister she never had and that she was ok with me calling her Daddy my Dad also because pastor Alvarado always knew that was the love I always longed for and pastor Alvarado was my Dad I would give all my Fathers Day card's to every year for every Fathersday up until I was about 16 years old I'm sure I would have still given him Fathers day cards if had I never left the church. But because of course I became a teenager who thought I didn't have to be in church any more even tho my pastor showed me better then that. Any time and every time I would run into Dad he was always sure to let me know I still had my Dad Pastor Alvarado ;) he would tell me mija don't forget who loves u and don't forget to always put Jesus first and close to ur heart and he would say I'm always here for u and ur mommy mija :) I will NEVER forget u or forget how u always made me feel special and that just because I didn't have my birth father here on earth with me, didn't mean I didn't have some one to look up to like a father and that was u Pastor Alvarado my Dad... I Love u Dad and ill forever have u in my heart. I promise to always be here for my family Alvarado... Ill see u again one day give my Daddy a big hug and kiss from me. Thank u Jesus for the man of God u put in my life

I know for certain that we never lose the people we love, even to death. They are present in everything we do, in every thought we have and every decision we make. They continue to participate in our lives forever. Their love leaves an unforgetable imprint in our memories. We find comfort in knowing that our lives have been strengthened by having shared their love. I love you grandpa, and I am so glad my children were able to know you and love you too! You will be so very greatly missed! Until we meet again....XOXOXOXO

Hermana Mary Ruby, Rey, Joe and Anna, I was truly blessed to have been a part of the Alvarado family way back in the day. Pastor Alvarado was a true spirit filled man of God, who I was priviledged to have been with over the many years of ministry. Pastor Alvarado and Sister Mary were my padrinos in our wedding, and as a matter of a fact, there in that house on Locust street is where I first meet my wife, and the blessing and encouragement Pastor and Sister gave to my wife and I.
As a young preacher, Pastor Alvarado would lead youth service worship and I would preach at Lirio de los Valles in Commerce City. Later we would share a radio program on La Jota Mexicana.
Pastor Alvarado would always have the most inspiring words of counsel to share with us. Never did I see this man of God, discouraged or low, always had a smile and firm grip to share with everyone, no matter what. Even would call him dad, and sister Mary, momma. Gracias hermana!
Our hearts are saddened, but, our everlasting hope is that "to be absent from the body, is to be present with Christ". From all of us at Templo Emmanuel, my family ~ our deepest and most sincere condolences. We love you ~
Pastor Jaramillo

Sister Mary and Alvarado Family, you are in our thoughts and prayers as we mourn the loss of our beloved Pastor Alvarado. Pastor Alvarado was so helpful when my father in law, Juan Rodriguez passed through that lonely valley to his reward. Today, they are united with our Heavenly Father.
We can never repay the times that Brother Alvarado came to visit us or spend some time praying for us. God Bless Brother Alvarado and may he celebrate his homecoming with our Lord Jesus Christ, our Savior.

Sis. Mary & Family,
We are so shocked to hear that the Lord has called brother home. He was truly a man of God and blessed our lives and our family in many ways. Know that he is singing his praises to the best mariachi choir the Lord has.
"Let the cup of pain overlfow the heart. But seek for the joy that remains in memories, made sweeter by living. And knowng that loss is heaven's gain...
