A Reflection by Tracy Hughes, Volunteer Partner with United Church of Christ Volunteer Ministries at BorderLinks in Tucscon, AZ (June 26, 2009)
This morning at 6am I left South Side Presbyterian church for my first Samaritan Patrol. These patrols are held by a group with that exact name with the mission of giving direct care to migrants in the Sonora Desert of Arizona. We have packs of food, bottles of water, Gatorade or other forms of electrolytes, socks, shoes, hats and basic medical supplies.
Today we covered quite a large area. We took a loop out of Tucson and ended up on Arivaca Highway and Interstate 19. Well, those are not all of the roads we took. We did get back to Tucson at 1pm.
