They asked the community to pick up new flyers and posters, and re-post them in neighborhoods throughout Tucson, and they asked for more prayers.
“Anybody who’d like to come and pray for Isabel please come,” said Becky Celis.
Her family was preparing to celebrate Isa’s birthday by getting her room ready, and talking about things she would have enjoyed on her birthday.
“We’re trying to get her room nice and pretty, just fix it up. That’s where my concentration has been, but it’s really hard for me to see her picture and know she’s not going to be here for her birthday,” said Becky Celis.
Isabel’s father, Sergio Celis added that they would never lose hope. They wanted her room to be ready, in case they got the call from police that she would be coming home tomorrow.
Dozens of strangers posted birthday wishes on a Facebook page dedicated to finding Isabel Celis. Family members said they planned to celebrate their child’s birthday as though she were there, to enjoy it with them.
“We’ll have balloons, donuts early in the morning,” said Sergio Celis.
Becky Celis added, “She just loves to be home and be together as a family. We’ll have balloons for sure, we’ll do that tomorrow that before Mass.” :56
The special birthday Mass was scheduled to take place on Monday evening at 6:30 PM, at the family’s home church, St. Joseph Roman Catholic Parish, near Broadway and Craycroft.
