In March 73 students from Shade Mountain Baptist church in Birmingham,
Alabama came to Reynosa for a week of ministry.
The Project Leader for this
trip was Bill Britton.
The students did some construction, VBS, visited a
local orphanage, door to door evangelism and visited a youth detention
center.
Here is a portion of one of the web posts from that trip:

Shades Mountain Baptist Church-
Birmingham, Alabama
Group 1 – Wendy, Steve, Anna Katherine, Austin Powell, Hannah Wilson, Morgan Majors, Nick Stead, and Brittany McKay.
Group 1 began the day by prayer-walking around the colonia seeking the guidance of the Lord to know what and whom to pray for. Considering Nick and Mr. Steve had the opportunity to talk and pray and lead a woman and her son to Christ, and we also had the chance to invite some local neighborhood children to upcoming VBS that we had planned, we had an incredible morning!!
