The document discusses the work of Arrow Outreach, an organization that serves the people of Juarez, Mexico. Juarez is located just across the border from El Paso, Texas and has a high murder rate due to gang violence. Arrow Outreach partners with local churches in Juarez to share God's love and enhance spiritual growth, education, and community development. It details several projects Arrow Outreach has undertaken over 20 years, such as building the Toribeo Family Center, renovating Socorro Rivera Elementary School, and constructing the Tocando Puertas Community Center and Redencion Y Verdad Church, creating resources from empty or run-down sites.
