~Casa Hogar Alfa y Omega June 2006 Update~

Thanks for helping to send us to the Youth Congress!

The ministry of Casa Hogar Alfa y Omega has been operating for over a decade now. What began as a ministry to touch kids who were living under a bridge, near the center of the town, has developed into a ministry of compassion, reaching out to the city of Poza Rica, in the state of Vera Cruz, Mexico. Under the guidance of Elias and Teresa Herrera, who have been given the mandate by God, the orphanage has seen tremendous progress over the last six years. Beginning in the Sunday school classrooms of the church where Pastor Elias served as pastor, property was purchased and has been developed into a beautiful campus on the side of a mountain. First came a dormitory in which all children were housed. Then, a home was built for the director and his family. Following this, a dormitory was built for the girls. As the ministry continued to grow, the need to prepare for the education of the children was exposed. Many of the children have had special problems, suffering mental, physical, and sexual abuse. This has resulted in very limited educational opportunities for them. Last June, a multi-purpose building was completed and dedicated. In the near future, plans include the beginning of a Christian school to service the children at the orphanage, as well as some children in the community. Nearly 70 children live at the orphanage now. The Church of God has a lot to be proud of! Thanks to the sacrifice of many folks by giving of funds, time, energy, and labor, there has been significant progress! The ministry is recognized in the community as a valid resource for needy children.

How do they survive financially? They walk by faith, dependent upon the Lord for daily provision. The monthly sponsorship program provides a limited amount of income. Businesses in the area provide tortillas and food. God has honored their faith!

Children’s ministry leaders, under the auspices of the Church of God Department of Youth and Christian Education have accepted the call to help, by giving and going, showing their love.

In June and Julyof 2005 and January of 2006 The Church of God International Youth and Christian Education Department will be hosting a mission trip to the orphanage of Casa Hogar Alfa y Omega.
