Bridge Ministry for Persons with Disabilities Esperanza 2011 treks are complete. 35 member "Mature trek" began Vern Endres home for Jose and Ana in Morita. Their kids all helped and since they lived in Arizona for 7 years, they spoke English. WOW, that really helped since adult trekkers don't have much Spanish. Young Adult worked in Lomas del Valle on 2 homes. There was the usual overload of picking, jack hammering, and digging for this powerful group of 18. At this same time, the Goodwin's 2nd annual group was hard at work making blocks, too. High School group of 31 worked in both Morita and Lomas. They poured floors and roofs, finished Vern's home, prayed, played, and lived in our wonderful community at Posada. Continued blessings to this amazing parish family for the support in this, our 20th consecutive year of building homes and community in the outskirts communities of Tijuana.
