Piedras Negras, Mexico
Where we serve
Along with our local partner Hands & Feet Ministries, we serve in and around Piedras Negras Mexico, a city in the Mexican state of Coahulia, just across the border from Eagle Pass, Texas. In Spanish, Piedras Negras translates to 'black stones' – a reference to coal deposits in the area.
Who we serve
We serve a diverse group of people and families in the region who are living in poverty, including children, immigrants, women experiencing violence, the disabled, elderly, and so many more. To learn more about the ministries we serve in Piedras Negras, click HERE.
How you can help
If you love children, if you are called to serve your neighbors in need, or if you simply want to get out of your comfort zone and help someone who is less fortunate, you already possess the most important skills necessary to make a difference: kindness.
Upcoming Trips
Global Blessings Co-op sponsors 3 - 4 trips to Piedras Negras every year. Most trips are three days (Fri-Sun) in length, and each itinerary is packed with meaningful service opportunities. But it’s not all about the work. Much of your time will be spent with other volunteers, with our Mexican partners, and of course with the indigenous peoples of this region.
