Our yard is a lake, the streets were rivers, the rivers are way over their banks. Monday, we took some wood over to Mexico , got Phil and Marianne the permits for their truck, and our trailer to head to Puebla today, if we can get the trailer out of the colonia.
Monday night the heavy rains started, we barely made it into the colonia with both trailers loaded with beans, rice, wood, bibles to go to Puebla. 4 wheel drive on both trucks made it possible, thank God for 4X4. While in the colonia two Federal Police vehicles got stuck in the mud on the other side of the canal . Andres took my truck and went and pulled them both out.
Today we have to get into the colonia to get my little trailer loaded with food so Phil and Marianne can head out. Christ Central Church is heading this way and will arrive in the morning. Their staying at Big Heart Orphanage and we're building close by, putting a roof on Pastor Juans house.
Travis Caywood has our donated load of beans in his truck. We're flooded, so we're unloading it into a building in Pharr, TX. The owners of the company come and get beans and rice from us, and offered their business as a place to store food if we need to, well, we need to now that we're flooded.
Prayers needed for all affected by the floods. The house we built on stilts last month is the only dry house in that colonia. 100 families forced to flee the flood water.
