Los Altos United Methodist Church has put out the call for those willing take a break from Silicon Valley life this spring to transform a family’s living quarters from a dirt-floor shack to a two-room stucco house.
During spring break on the Los Altos school calendar, April 5-12, the church invites local residents to join a group traveling to Tecate, Mexico, to build houses for the working poor. The group will participate in the program run by AMOR Ministries, which has coordinated volunteer groups from all over the United States for 32 years as they worked in several Mexican cities and on the San Carlos Apache Indian Reservation in Arizona. The church has worked with AMOR Ministries for 19 years.
