Day 3 at Acuna, Mexico



 Today we worked on a church in Acuna. In the picture you can see the new church building on the left, and the old one on the right. The old building's walls are made from old pallets, complete with wide open gaps in the boards, and the roof is a leaky tarp. The location is on top of the hill, so the wind went right through the old building. It had lights inside, but the entire building was powered with a plug that was plugged into an extension cord. The new building has windows and doors, and a roof that doesn't leak. The pastors and their wives cried when we gave them the keys.

I installed electrical fixtures, outlets, and switches at the church in the morning, then we drove down to McAllen, TX, over 300 miles, so we can work in Reynosa, Mexico in the morning, over 300 miles of driving. All of our border crossing have been smooth, with only occasional inspections, because the border guards are getting used to seeing our 11 vans go through at the same time - thanks for your continued prayers for border crossings, health and safety.
