HARLINGEN, Texas - The Port of Harlingen will try again to expand its overweight corridor route in the 89th Legislature starting in January.As in the 88th session, the legislation will be carried by state Rep. Janie Lopez, R-San Benito.The legislation failed to make it into law in 2023, in part because of opposition from the Texas Department of Public Safety.But, says Port of Harlingen Executive Director Walker Smith, the legislation has merit because it would improve safety on the road. In an exclusive interview with Ron Whitlock Reports, Smith explained that three entities in the Rio Grande Valley have the authority to issue permits for shippers to use overweight corridors in the Rio Grande Valley - Hidalgo County Regional Mobility Authority, the Port of Brownsville, and the Port of Harlingen.He said trucks weighing no more than the Mexican Legal Weight Limit or 125,000 pounds can use an overweight corridor. On a regular corridor they can only carry 80,000 pounds.“If we're able to connect these corridors, it provides flexibility to the transportation system and dedicates those overweight trucks to these dedicated routes,” Smith said.“So, we're going to be looking to extend our overweight corridor from FM 509 to the Hidalgo County-Cameron County line, a 13-mile strip.“The legislation would essentially designate this route, FM, 509, US Highway 281, to the Hidalgo County and Cameron County lines. And at that point, the Hidalgo County RMA corridor would pick up and carry the cargo into the Pharr Bridge, or vice versa.”Editor's Note: Go to the Rio Grande Guardian International News Service website to read the full story. Go to www.riograndeguardian.com to read the latest border news stories and watch the latest news videos.

HARLINGEN, TEXAS - The top project at the Port of Harlingen is expanding the turning basin by about 700 feet on both sides of the ship channel. If this happened there would be host of new opportunities, says Port Director Walker Smith, including going after the lucrative container-on-barge business. Smith gave an update on Port activities during a panel discussion at the Rio Grande Valley Partnership's recent Commercialization and Investment Tour. It was hosted by Harlingen Economic Development Corporation and held at Texas State Technical College-Harlingen.Smith started by explaining that the Port of Harlingen is a shallow draft port located east of the city of Harlingen. He said it mostly handles fuel, agricultural products, fertilizers and aggregates. Asked by Harlingen EDC Chief Operating Officer Beverly Ticer Loftus to list some of the Port of Harlingen's top projects, Smith said: “One of the big projects that we're working on right now is we're engaged in a Cap 107 study with the Army Corps of Engineers. We're looking to expand our turning basin by about 700 feet on both sides of the channel. “Once that is complete and we get a favorable response by the Army Corps of Engineers from the study… we will begin building out the bulkhead and new dock space for that expansion as well.” Smith said the project is vitally important. “We've had almost a 200% growth in commodities since 2017. And so, with that growth in commodities obviously comes a growth in vessel calls. We've had about a 150% increase in vessel calls to the Port of Harlingen. And we're still doing that with infrastructure that was built in the 1950s,” Walker said. “So, our infrastructure is very outdated at the Port of Harlingen. The growth that we've been seeing came on very, very quickly. So, we're looking to expand that turning basin to help facilitate that growth as well as take on new opportunities. Some of those new opportunities could possibly be a container-on-barge service.” Smith said that in 2018 the Port of Harlingen received designation from the Maritime Administration to apply for grants to create a container-on-barge service. “We wouldn't be able to do that without this expansion of the turning basin. And so, we're looking at doing that. That's probably our biggest project that we've got going on right now.”Editor's Note: To read the full story go to the Rio Grande Guardian website.Go to www.riograndeguardian.com to read the latest border news stories and watch the latest news videos.

With more than400M streams and a combined social media following of almost two million, Kim Walker-Smith was on top of the highly instrumental praise and worship music movement here in America and across the world. Having spent more than 20 years in worship leadership, Walker-Smith is known for her spirit-led worship anthems that have touched the hearts of so many near and far.But then in 2020, as COVID-19 began to rage, Walker-Smith, her husband, and two children made the bold decision to leave California for the more simple vibes of Montana. She put her music career on hold as she and her family adapted to this new paradigm.Now, more than three years later, Walker-Smith has released an original new album. Titled “Trample”, the project includes 12 tracks including the already released songs, “Boxes”, “Let Revival In”, and “Mama".While many of Walker-Smith's previous offerings came from a place of dryness and difficulty in her life, “Trample” is a compilation of songs written from a place of victory. Victory is not expressed purely and only with joy, but is also expressed with humility and understanding of what is needed to continue moving forward.Walker-Smith joins us on the Crossmap Podcast to talk about why she decided to take a break from music several years ago and how God inspired her to return. Listen as she shares why it is so vitally important to introduce worship to children at a young age and the foundational roots of what became “Trample”.

Have you ever felt like reading and studying the scriptures is just another item to add to your to-do list instead of feeling like the spiritual highlight of your day? Well, perhaps you can find yourself an "SOS scripture." This is a verse or set of verses from the scriptures that you can turn to whenever you might need a moment of peace or strength from the Lord. Perhaps it's one you've memorized or stuck to your bathroom mirror.    These SOS scriptures are a perfect example of how to get a lot out of a little, and that's what today's guest Kristen Walker Smith is doing. She has made it a personal mission of hers to make scripture study the spiritual highlight of her day, and she has been sharing that mission with others!   "How scripture study feels is so much more important than how it looks."   Top takeaways: Having an "SOS scripture" can be helpful for us to have whenever we might need a moment of inspiration from the Lord, and it doesn't require reading an entire chapter to feel that spiritual nourishment! Even taking one minute a day to reflect on the scriptures can bring you closer to the Lord and feel the promises of scripture study. Opening up the scriptures is a way to receive personal revelation and learn how much God loves us. It's worth it to make a habit of scripture study, even when we don't feel like we're getting anything out of it, because those moments of peace will surely come.   Small and simple challenge: as you study the scriptures, even just one verse, look for 1) the point of the passage, 2) how you can make it personal, and then 3) add power to the verse by taking action on it.   Links The Power of Scripture by Elder Richard G.

In this episode, David speaks to Michelle Walker-Smith of Aqua Lettings. Michelle is a property investor and landlord who has a reputation for going the extra mile for her tenants. Michelle works hard to settle them into properties that work for them and often provides practical assistance to help them to get their lives on track. This approach results in settled tenants who enjoy a decent quality of life. Michelle shares details of her journey. Including how she had gone from being a highly risk-averse person to being able to seize every opportunity. An approach that has led to her managing a large property portfolio, while running her own letting agency and a successful mentoring business. She explains why she is not scared to give the right people a chance and rent to tenants others might say no to. Looking after your tenants properly benefits both parties. With good communication, most issues can be anticipated and solved amicably. To grow, you need to force yourself out of your comfort zone. Don't rent out a property that you would not be happy to live in yourself. All of us can easily become homeless. If you want to do something, you will make time. Structuring your day properly is essential.   BEST MOMENTS ‘We don't use To Let boards; it is all done by word of mouth.' ‘If you've got a colorful history, tell people about it and share your experience. ‘Go with your gut feeling. If you´ve got an idea and you believe in it enough, you will make it happen.' ‘Sometimes people will give you negative feedback if they have had a bad day themselves.'   EPISODE RESOURCES Aqua Lettings Website - https://www.aqualettings.co.uk/ Michelle´s Mentoring Service - https://michellewsmith.co.uk/   ABOUT THE SHOW People with purpose make a difference. Imagine a world where more people can just get their purpose out of them, into a plan and then actually make it happen. What a world that would be - People everywhere finding meaning and harnessing that to bring inspiration and energy to each and every day, changing lives for the better. But no one ever achieved anything on their own - we all have something unique to bring and that means we all have to play our part - if we want to go far, we have to go together and lead or serve towards a vision of the world we want to see. Everyone has a story to tell, and this show is where these stories come to life.   ABOUT THE HOST David Roberts is a highly regarded CEO, mentor, and investor with 30 years of experience across multiple sectors.

Also on today's program, pastor and author John Ortberg is in the midst of a family drama involving his transgender daughter that has become a public controversy. And Promise Keepers is back.  The men's ministry that attracted 1-million men to the National Mall a generation ago will hold its first big event at the end of the month. We'll discuss what's the same and what's different. We begin today with the news that churches and religious non-profits received at least $6-billion in COVID relief funds and some of the organizations getting those funds are raising eyebrows. Each week, Warren Smith and co-host Natasha Smith bring you news about Christian ministries, as well as the latest in charity and philanthropy, all designed to help us become better stewards of the resources God has entrusted to us. The producers for today's program are Rich Roszel and Steve Gandy.  We get database and other technical support from Cathy Goddard, Stephen DuBarry, and Casey Sudduth.  Writers who contributed to today's program include Christina Darnell, Walker Smith, Emily McFarlan Miller, Julie Roys, and Warren Smith.  Thanks to our friends at Religion News Service for contributing material to this week's program.

On today's program, The Supreme Court is handing down decisions on an almost daily basis.  We look at a couple of those decisions that will have an impact on churches and Christian ministries.  Also, GOD TV gets booted off the air in Israel.  We'll explain why.  And we continue our Generous Living series with the story of a young couple in New York City who is giving away 90%  of what they earn and living on the remaining 10%. If you'd like to read more about ANY of the stories we discussed on today's program, just go to MinistryWatch.com and you'll find them right on the front page. We also want to mention a new feature on the website.  On the last day of each month, we are going to publish the top 10 stories of that month.   We just started this feature, so you can go to the website now and see the top 10 stories for the month of June.  They include stories about Ravi Zacharias, the Southern Baptist Convention, Jerry Falwell and Liberty University, and the death of George Floyd, and what faith groups are doing to bring reconciliation and healing.  It's a great way to reflect back on the stories that are likely to have a lasting impact.
