A historic chapel in the Rio Grande Valley will not be cut off by a border wall as initially feared. The chapel, La Lomita, is located near the Rio Grande and its future was uncertain due to border wall construction plans.

The federal government had planned to seize the chapel's land, which would have isolated it between the wall and the river. However, new plans have been made to construct the wall behind the chapel, closer to the river.

Further details about the new plans and the chapel's situation are available from the source, including information from U.S. Rep. Henry.
