@matt_vanswol Matt, a clarification on the Amish crews... n cooperation with WV VOAD, over 150 bridges were built in West Virginia, not Western NC.
To date, MDS has built one new bridge Iron Station, NC.
Several culverts and temporary water crossing have been repaired, new bridges to come.

Each Wednesday afternoon of @MDS_Respond service is dedicated to education on immigration and border issues. It is the first MDS site with this type of education component.

As @MDS_Respond volunteers build homes in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas, they also learn about who they’re helping.

Why should you volunteer in McAllen, Texas? So you can sample warm tortillas emerging from the oven at the La Reynera bakery! #MDSOnTheRoad #MDSResponds #McAllenTX

[Kevin King @Kevin_King5]

Great to be here in south Texas seeing our volunteers are work

Volunteers began their daily devotional yesterday with @GirlNamedTom singing Psalm 23. #MDSResponds #RespondRebuildRestore #MDSOnTheRoad

A simple moment of gratitude: Maria Lira, a resident of Pharr, Texas, thanks MDS volunteers for installing a new roof on her home.

The Mount Academy’s Construction Tech class is getting the sheetrock put up in the house they are working on for @Habitat_org. Note how some don't need a ladder! Next week is plaster and paint! Great work guys. Working with @ulsterhabitat, @MDS_Respond and @TheBruderhof.
