OUR MISSION

Answering the call of Isaiah 6:8 by establishing a sanctuary of holistic, Christ-centered, ‘womb to tomb’ care for vulnerable children and families across Central America.  

  

Empowered by the Gospel, we provide Christ-centered, family-style care for the orphaned and displaced, while equipping a new generation of leaders through community discipleship, women’s leadership initiatives, and international missions. Rooted in stewardship, we further serve our neighbors through the sustainable provision of nutritional resources from our ranch, Refugio en Cristo, to nourish both body and soul.
