Methodist Church in McAllen, Texas. Work began Monday morn-
ing in Rio Bravo, Mexico. The goal was to build two houses for
needy families. The group was divided into two teams, each team
building one house. Ages of those working ranged from the young-
est-six years old-to the oldest member of the group-age 70+..
Work began each day well before sunup with a hearty breakfast
served and prepared by team members in the church's kitchen.
The team then boarded an old, well used school bus for the hour-
long journey across the border to the work site.
The houses were single room structures constructed of concrete
block. They were topped with a tin roof, and doors and windows
were added. The families for whom the houses were built were
selected by DIF (the Mexican version of DHS). They are required
to own the land on which the house is built and to pour the founda-
tion themselves. That was quite a task, considering the concrete
had to be mixed by hand and carried in buckets or by wheelbarrow

to the foundation pad.
Each work team was supplied
with a 'maestro,' a Mexican who
worked alongside each team,
giving guidance and help as
needed. Everyone got their
chance to try their hand at mix-
ing mud and laying the blocks.
Work began each day very early
each morning, and ended by
mid-afternoon, when the tem-
perature climbed over 100 de-
grees.
The children of team members
enjoyed playing with the chil-
dren of the neighborhood, mak-
