Saturday afternoon, 10 people from Hulls Grove Baptist Church flew into McAllen and joined with 6 people that drove from Kentucky and one other servant from Missouri, and we all headed across the border to " SPEND " ourselves on behalf of the poor in Mexico. We had our monthly food distribution Sunday morning , so the team could experience what we get to every month. We had a great turn out. over 300 people and several members of the team shared the Gospel with the people. The Gospil bracelets were given to everyone after it's meaning was told. Curtis, Brandy and I led everyone in a few worship songs as well. We ate lunch and went down to get a jump on building the two houses and by days end four walls stood tall.
Sleeping at the Community Center has been great for us and the team. Our new air conditioners have been keeping us all pretty comfortable at night. Paulas cooking is just as great in Mexico as it is when we stay in the U.S. Tonight we had her famous meatloaf..Best thing, no bridge wait time, more fellowship time. Today one house is finished and the other will be by noon tomorrow, so we can dedicate both tomorrow afternoon. Big rains expected starting Thursday morning. I drove across the border tonight to buy chairs and get some roofing materials I forgot to take the other day, to finish house #2.
