Our previous church was helping to support a small children's home in southern Tijuana..about 35 kids. We went down about every 6 weeks or so to take food and other supplies. We would spend the weekend, sharing Jesus with the kids and doing work around the place. Our kids learned so much there...how not to value material goods so much. It was only a 4 hour trip from home by car, so pretty easy to do and wasn't expensive. We did it for over 3 years, and I have very fond memories. Very scary to go there now...with the drug wars going on. We don't go any more. Sad.
