Little Flock

Little Flock is our feeding program.  We provide an evening meal for the old folks home downtown every 5th Thursday.  We also maintain a small food pantry which we call BARE NES which provides the bare necessities to families and individuals who are struggling to make ends meet.  Jobs are hard to come by since Mexico is also being hit hard by the recession.  Violence in the battle against drugs takes its toll as well. 

Education

Lifting Burdens provides Sunday School Teacher Training Seminars, Women's Bible Study, Computer instruction to pastors, repujado (metal embossing) classes, and other basic craft classes.  From time to time, we teach Adult Sunday School classes and tutor children. 

Marilyn is the "Supervisora" at Regents de Reynosa, an elementary/middle school built for children at the Big Heart Casa Hogar (Children's Home).   

Medical/Physical Needs

Lifting Burdens helps pay for doctor's visits, costs of operations and medicines.   We provide transportation to the doctor or to take care of legal matters.  We distribute clothing, blankets and shoes where needed.  We also distribute school bags and supplies in the fall.  All of these blessings are made possible by donations to our "Wherever" fund and gifts sent by our churches back home. 

Construction

Jorge plays a key role in the construction and in educating Mexican men and women on how to build and maintain the projects that we are doing.  Our organization is instrumental in providing the USA teams with a place to work, the materials to do the job and a place to stay.  Lifting Burden Teams have built homes for needy families, built classrooms, installed bathroom facilities, straighten walls, patched roofs, painted, insulated and drywalled, installed electrical fixtures, built church benches and the list goes on and on.   If you are interested in bringing a team to Reynosa click "Mission Trips/Projects" on our menu.

  Relationships are

  important to any

  program we run. 

  The Mexican

  people we work

  with thrive on

  knowing we care.

  The pastors from

  our network of

  Mexican churches

  decide who has the

  most need and we

  pray, weigh our

  resources and de-

  cide where we can

  help.
