Correction
We’ve had some phone calls from folks wishing to donate money to the bank account aiding the mission for the indigenous Tarahumara in Chihuahua. Checks should be made out to Complejo Asistencial Clinica Santa Teresita, A.C. and deposited at any Banamex bank, account number 70619 sucursal (branch) 838.
