Dear Friends, It’s an honor to serve as a Presbyterian Border Coordinator in partnership with Abara Borderland Connections. My wife, Melissa, and I have four children and our family lives on the US-Mexico border in El Paso, TX. I’ve served as a pastor and non-profit leader for over twenty years between major cities with an emphasis on justice, solidarity, and empowerment. Throughout our journey we continue living, working, and learning in marginalized communities. At the invitation of PC(USA), we're in process of listening, connecting dots and relationships, and laying groundwork to launch a new Tres Rios Border Foundation. May we invite your team or Missions Committee to prayerfully consider the following ways to engage? I look forward to connecting with you in the near future and please do not hesitate to reach out to me if I can serve you in any way. PAZ, Nate D.
