Texas/Mexico Border Ministries General Fund

Since 1948, WGM has been serving on the Mexico border in McAllen, Texas. What began as a small outreach over 70 years ago has expanded into a multi-faceted approach to spreading God’s love. Today, missionaries serve through Taylor Christian School (TCS) and Taylor Community Center (TCC) to provide wholistic care and support for families.

A member of the Association of Christian Schools International, TCS is a Christ-centered elementary school. Through weekly chapel services, music education opportunities, sports programs, and before- and after-school care, TCC seeks to empower students and bring them into a close relationship with God.

Built in 2000, the TCC has become the hub of missions work in McAllen. TCC serves as TCS’s chapel building, gym, cafeteria. After school, TCC has its own sports ministry which provides community youth with an opportunity to join a league and participate in practices and weekly games. TCC is in the middle of an expansion project which would increase the space of the facility and provide more opportunities for adult education and afterschool tutoring.

Poverty presents a serious issue to families on the border who often struggle to obtain adequate food and clothing. In keeping with WGM’s commitment to reaching the whole person, The Sparrow’s Nest—an outreach program of the TCC—collects gently used clothing and nonperishables and redistributes them to the community at a low cost.
