PREPPING FOR PUEBLA

  We're getting ready for our trip to Puebla Mexico with 27 people from Oklahoma and 15 people from Chiapas. We will be holding medical and dental clinics,  along with backpack programs for about 2500 kids. Hot dogs and chips every day. We will purchase beans and rice down there, because there's just not enough room to haul it all. Phil and Marianne along with two of their grandkids just called and are across the border and on their way to Puebla. There's always a need for more $ because the toys, beans, rice, backpacks, and everything else is upwards of $20,000.00.
   We had 2 truck loads of black pinto beans donated by Hope Development in Chicago.  We've been raising the money for the trucking. One load is already in Waco,  and the other will be picked up in a week or two. The need for beans and rice is rising with all the migrants along our Border. We have already donated hundreds of pairs of shoes to ministries along the border. The needs are really tremendous down here.
  We met a family in Progresso last week. A Grandmother with two daughters and 5 grandkids are in desperate need of a new roof. We decided to meet the need and we bought the roofing materials and will try to get it installed before we leave. It's over 100 degrees every day so it will take a few days.
  My cardiac rehab is going well and I'm hiring the golf ball farther, Lol. I've been going as often as I can to get my 26 sessions done. Thanks for the prayers and support that keep us keeping on.
