Texas Baptist Retirees Build Churches Across Texas
A group called the Texas Baptist Retirees, led by founder Olin Miles of Austin, travels from town to town building churches and aiding missions. In Odessa they erected University Park Baptist Church with volunteers living on site in trailers, working daily from daybreak to about 4 30 p.m. The 77 year old Miles said the program, now five years old, has built nearly 50 structures and includes both labor and fellowship for retirees.
