The Freedom Church Alliance (“FCA”). of which LifeBridge is a partner, wants to help those who are being taken advantage of at the border.
Border Bags is a brand new initiative they are undertaking after having become aware in recent months of exploitation taking place among the influx of people at the border.
The FCA and LifeBridge are feeling led by the Lord to respond!
We know that as women and children make their way to the border there is a greater risk for them either being exploited – if they are not already experiencing it.
So we are responding alongside the FCA by:
- helping put together bags for women and children and
- in a few months deliver these bags to the border for distribution. (We don’t know what this part will look just yet but will keep you informed.)
We are making 20 bags: 12 for women and 8 for children.

If you purchase “like items” not on the registry, please text Astra (517/525.5604) or Angie (979/627.5817) and they will manually update the registry.
