Progress at Rio III, by Jim Betscher, Back2Back Mexico Staff

I wanted to update everyone on the progress that we have had at Rio 3. It has been four months since Hurricane Alex washed away over 100 homes and turned the church building that Back2Back supports into a 24-hour refuge for hundreds of people. With the help of many who gave towards our huricane relief fund, we have been able to put a roof on the new multi-purpose addition and pour a concrete floor. This will enable us to not only serve the community on a daily basis, but will also allow us to be better able to serve the people in the event of a future disaster. This building will eventually be a soup kitchen for the community!

I always like to point out that I believe the ministry that Olga runs from this church building is  a light in a dark world. Now they will be able to bring light to darkness in even a bigger way. We are excited about what God is doing in Rio 3. We also give thanks to God for the generous support that so many of you give. Together we are making a difference.
