Contractors have taken on the huge task of sheltering thousands of unaccompanied child migrants
In the late afternoon of July 9, Air Force One touched down at Love Field in Dallas. President Barack Obama ducked into a private room at the airport for a discussion about the crisis of undocumented children crossing the southwest border. Assembled around a wooden table were top Texas officials, including Governor Rick Perry and Dallas Mayor Mike Rawlings, as well as the leaders of several faith-based charities. One of them was a man so anonymous, the White House pool report misspelled his name.
Kevin Dinnin is the CEO of a faith-based, nonprofit organization called BCFS, formerly known as Baptist Child and Family Services. This obscure charity has emerged as one of the biggest players in the federal government’s response to the influx of more than 57,000 unaccompanied children who have trudged across the southern border so far this year. It runs two of the largest facilities for temporarily housing immigrant children, as well as six permanent shelters in California and Texas. Since December, BCFS has received more than $280 million in federal grants to operate these shelters, according to government records. On July 7, two days before Dinnin met Obama in Dallas, the Department of Health and Human Services awarded BCFS $190,707,505 in a single grant.

Cross the border and build your havens for UIC in Mexico. Don’t bring them into the USA!!
When handed lemons make lemonade.....may as well show these kids the love of Jesus and give them a bit of protection against the liberal brainwashing they will soon be subjected to.
Realistically, nobody will have the political will and cojones to send them home. Would be kind of funny if a bunch of Ohomo’s undocumented democrats turned into conservative Christians, wouldn’t it?
Yeah, I thought this had already been debunked on FR and shown that this “Baptist” organization had nothing to do with “Baptists” or any church whatsoever.

Better watch those youth ministers—after the government pays out the payola, they’ll be bringing in the lawyers. Win. Win.
Who's paying YOU?
But it is always instructive to observe those who refuse to learn the facts for themselves, and/or those who continue to spread thoroughly debunked lies.
It makes the annual zot purges of trolls and useless idiots much more fun, to those who pay attention!
Do 'grants' have to be approved by Congress; or has the grantor received a LARGE wad of money at the getgo and then parcels it out as it sees fit??
No; blame US for allowing this to happen and CONTINUE to happen!
6K is pretty good bribery money!
it says “up to”...
Look up “Child Care” in your state and see how much ‘providers’ get paid per child!

I wonder why they didn't use MORMON??

I recall a senator some years ago say that congressional committees didn’t even look at amounts less than .1 billion dollars. That’s $100 million!
Since no single grant was that large, only a very few really interested congressmen would ever notice.
There are very, very few prosecutions or even admissions of misspent grant money.
How about the Catholic Church?
....there was a town hall meeting last evening, emergency meeting called by our local parish priest, ordered by our bishop (unintelligible) and the Archdiocese of San Bernardino. They have made the decision that they're going to absorb the immigrants that are coming through because the federal government called the bishop's office on Monday and they're gonna be busing these immigrants to our communities and asking us to open our homes and to house them for up to a month. The church will reimburse us for any out-of-pocket expenses....

I believe BCFS no longer has anything to do with the Baptist faith.
As a charity, it appears to be about 99.4% dependent upon government grants.
In other words, it's simply a part of the non-profit network that services the liberal agenda.
Follow the money. . .
They are just helping bring in the last day plagues and they purposely do not preach end times to their congregations. Ear tickling goes along way in these churches that support such disregard for this country. This was pre-arranged for chaos!
