Day two has been incredible. We began the day at 5:30 am and left for Fort Hancock at 6:00. We hit the site running – or climbing rather. By church time we had almost finished one side of the roof. We stopped to attend the service and had a very meaningful time with the church family – even though the entire service was in Spanish, there was a distinct bond with the people. Afterwards, the church fed us a wonderful meal and then it was back to work.
This evening, we attended a worship service with the other churches that are represented here this week for the Kid’s Heart effort. Kid’s Heart is a joint effort between Buckner International and the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship of Texas. We were blessed tonight to be given a challenge by the President of Buckner International, Albert Reyes. I really appreciated that he took the time to come to El Paso and be here to meet with our groups. I also appreciated what he had to say.
I am so excited to see what God will do this week. Continue to pray for us as we wrap up our work in Fort Hancock tomorrow and move on to the next project. It is amazing to be around when people’s availability intersect with God’s desire. Lives are forever changed! More on that subject next time. For now, check out some pics from today.
