The Bible on the Border: How Father Rick Thomas and his friends learned to serve the poor of Mexico by taking God at His Word

The Bible on the Border explains how Father Rick Thomas S.J. and his friends learned to serve the poor of Mexico by taking God as His Word. Richard Dunstan, the author, first visited the late Father Rick Thomas and the OLYC community in El Paso and Ciudad Juarez in 1989; while there, he had a life-changing encounter with Jesus during a visit to prisoners in the cells at the Juarez municipal jail. He has returned to the community frequently since then. This book grew out of a suggestion from Father Thomas, and is based on extensive interviews with him and other OLYC volunteers, as well as personal experience of the ministries.
