From July 28 to August 5, Orin's wife Erin took part in a young-adult mission trip sposored by the Shrine of Our Lady of the Snows and Oblate Youth Ministry to La Morita, near Tijuana, Mexico (near San Diego, CA). The Oblates of Mary Immaculate have a health clinic there. The group spent most of the week just talking with the people, talking with the Oblates who try to meet their needs, and examining what they could do to help social justice issues when they returned home.
