Today our group of 29 arrived in McAllen and got to work. We toured the Rio Grande Children's Home, where Buckner cares for children removed from their home by CPS until they can be placed with a foster or adoptive family. On that campus we are working on a prayer garden, and tomorrow we will also begin work on a community garden (food) that is tended by the children who live there.
We are also building and painting beds for families within Buckner's ministry in the Colonias, the poorest areas outside of McAllen. We are excited to have the opportunity to deliver these beds to families selected by Buckner on Monday afternoon.
