We just had our first team in years. Hulls Grove Baptist Church has come for the last 8 years or so, building houses, ministering in the colonia, and helping with Melodys Orphanage. Six ladies came the week before from the same area and held children's outreaches, visited 3 orphanages and stayed at Big Heart Orphanage ❤️.
The team from Hull’s Grove Baptist Church arrived on Saturday and they helped remove debris from our trailer park that sustained a lot of damage from a storm Friday night, including our trailer. We returned to the park on Monday to continue to help remove debris and repair a few roofs.
Sunday we went to Pastor Juan Cantus church to attend the dedication after we had paid for the structural steel and roofing materials. They had been without a roof for 2 years!! How many of us would attend a church without a roof? The congregation fed us delicious tamales 🫔 😋 after the service.
We left there and headed to the Community Center for our Childs Day Celebration and our monthly food outreach. We had soccer balls and gifts for the kids and we also gave the women gifts for Mothers Day and the men for Father's Day.
We took the team to see where the immigrants were in Sende de Vida camp. They also went to Children’s Haven Orphanage on Wednesday and Thursday and Friday we were at Big Heart Orphanage in the mountains ⛰️.
Now Paula and I are in Illinois for Leas dance recital tomorrow. We arrived on my birthday and are always excited to see the Family. Thanks for your prayers and support.
