The Padilla Urena family is eagerly awaiting our arrival.
They live in a community called Franccionamiento del Trabajo, in Tijuana Mexico. They are still paying for the land (about $50.00 a month); the family together makes about $200 a week. Mario Enrique works as a laborer. Rosa Imelda also works as a laborer. One of them is a brick layer assistant and one is a machine operator. They believe in God, but say they are not very involved at church. They are newlyweds and hope to make it. They are in great need. They currently live in one room. The roof is not in good shape, made of plastic tarp, and the floor is also not in good shape, made of cement. The walls are almost unusable, made of used lumber. The outhouse is almost unusable. They have access to propane, and a stove. They do not have electricity, drinkable water, a telephone, a car, or a refrigerator.

A message from the family: “Thank you for your help!”
