Chance Shoemake

Through the Louisiana Bar Foundation grant of $50,000 we were able to hire a staff attorney, Chance Shoemake, to fit the growing needs of the community. Chance began as a volunteer with the organization. A native of the Lake Charles area, Chance attended law school in San Antonio, where he went on to pass the Texas Bar. He is now studying for the Louisiana Bar.
We are grateful to the Louisiana Bar Foundation for this generous grant to assist our community. Chance assists people in the following areas: adjustments of status, work permits, attaining citizenship, refugees, domestic violence, and reuniting immigrant families.

Wedding Celebration

Stories

Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Guidry on their recent wedding ceremony. St. Frances Cabrini Immigration Law Center was instrumental in uniting Mr. and Mrs. Guidry through a fiancé Visa.

In the picture, they wear traditional Mongolian wedding dress.  It’s made of cotton and silk with handmade decorations. Usually the bride is in red and gold while the groom wears blue and gray. The wedding lasts at least two days. All family members come to join in the celebration of love. They bring instruments to play and sing while enjoying a big meal — mostly mutton and beef. Of course, alcohol accompanies the festivities. They have kept this tradition for hundreds of years since the time their hero, Genghis Khan, attempted to conquer Europe.
