A river -- and an international border - separate the city of Juarez in Mexico and El Paso in the United States. Even though they are in many respects worlds apart - Juarez is poor and crime-ridden and El Paso is prosperous and relatively safe - the two cities are bound by powerful ties. One of them is the family of Jesus and Maria Ruiz and the charity they have started. Roger Hsu from VOA's Mandarin Service filed the story and it is narrated by Ruth Reader.

  • I appreciate what Jesus and Maria are doing for these people. I have no doubt that our Lord honors what they are doing. It is an example of what all of us should be involved doing. If one calls themselves a christian they should count the scriptures that talks about how God feels the poor should be treated.

  • Please stop having so many kids. Poverty will be cut in half.
