Embuscado.
E familia.
In the midst of so much uncertainty.
Routine provides a constant outside
El Pasos Sacred Heart Church.
Every morning, an overnight stay in the
church transforms into a day spent here.
This is Roberto's 25th
morning on this sidewalk.
He and his family feel stuck.
Keep reliving the same day
until they're able to move on.
And I'll say more Como. Como como?
It's a journey now 3000 miles in the making,
most of it on foot from Venezuela to here.
After so long on the move,
the days here feel frustratingly slow
for Roberto Jefferson, Maria and Jesus.
In with. Questo.
Erica. It's been indiferente diferente team.
But what they
need are the necessities. But what
they want is to be someplace else.
Then we picking you to wait.
SNES patterns they start AKA.
The city that he went
to, Esperando. You can also
say I've got really that.
To make it to the border,
they trekked through a jungle,
avoided gangs and evaded cartels.
For most of us,
the dream came to them
recently out of survival.
Yeah. And look at me my.
Maybe another professional?
Maria decided this journey wasn't
for her. It's for her kids.
So I got something on the noise.
The portal of EOS 4K.
Tampoco. For me.
The thousands of migrants who
made it to Denver did it the
same way through all Paso,
carefully to the next stop.
And with the house.
I said nothing. Not that I'm problem.
One small mistake could mean losing the
progress they've worked for. Help us.
If they're taken by Border Patrol,
they'll be back in Mexico in five hours.
Play out. Come on.
The. They still
have no porque see the city movement.
Remove. Recordando, Al Qaeda step by.
And you'll pass.
For these families, El Paso is not safe.
Mario and his family
distanced themselves from the border.
No. How are you?
Awaiting their next move,
stuck between El Paso and the
next immigration checkpoint.
Yeah, I mean, I'm gonna put anything,
you know, I gotta meet. That's the only way.
When I notice.
All of them
are waiting for the safest
moments to keep moving forward.
They'll pack up the few things
they have for another night
in a church turned shelter.
But I don't want.
Another night going nowhere. This this thing.
Can't saito? And so we came up with.
1000 mile. You practical materialism.
He put a lot of pork.
And.
If they could, they would break this cycle.
One day they know the routine will act in
a new city they hope comes with a sense
of freedom no, they can't find here.
I wanna know. And in lucha. Deserted.
OK. Yeah. That can be 15. Palo Alto.
He. One before we continue one.
We've stayed in touch with all of
the people you met in that story.
Three of them have made it to Denver and
the two others are still where we met them,
trying to figure out how to move
forward from there. Why Denver?
Yeah, Denver is really one of the easiest,
most direct routes to get from El Paso.
It's also one of the most affordable.
And so some people are coming directly
from El Paso to Denver and others
are actually going to Albuquerque.
And once they get to Albuquerque,
the ticket is only $40 to get to Denver.
So it's really accessible for many of them,
a dream practically.
Achieved.
I mean, and I'm so we're so grateful
that you're staying in touch and you're
going to see them and see how they're
doing and how they're adjusting.
Yeah, we've actually already seen one
of them and they're doing really well.
And it's really great because you
heard them in that story, right.
You heard Jefferson,
he said a dream practically realized
we're almost there, but not quite yet.
And so it's really great to talk
with them and know that they're doing
well and that they're really a step
closer to being settled here and
something that they really wanted to
do. And I think it's so
important to hear their values,
the values of their family because
you hear this very familiar stuff.
It's what everybody wants for their family.
But people born into a very
different circumstance.
Yes, I think people don't
realize at the end of the day,
they want what's best for themselves.
They want what's best for their family.
And they're doing so in trying to
seek asylum, they're doing so in
making this really difficult journey.
And the people who make this journey,
right, it's not an easy decision.
I think a lot of people think
that they're just coming,
and that's not the case.
It's really difficult.
To actually say I'm going to take
four months out of my life to
travel and do this and not know
what might be at the end, take
a chance. Alright, Angeline, thank you.
