WAYS TO SERVE
La Casa de mi Padre seeks to partner with others to be God’s hands and feet in El Salvador. We have been blessed with many teams, visitors and volunteers over the years that have worked on projects within La Casa, The Bridge, our land, our families’ homes and their communities. We have also hosted medical mission teams. Without many people joining our mission, we could not accomplish restoration in the lives of the children. We encourage you to consider partnering with us in God’s work.
Prayer Partner
December \ prayer requests:
- Join us in giving praise for all those who have partnered with us this year. Together, we are making a difference in the lives of children and families in El Salvador.
- Pray for each family that we serve to know God’s love and desire that we might all be restored into a relationship with Him.
- Pray for our GlobalX team coming to help us celebrate Christmas with our neighbors. We will be hosting a Christmas Party for over 175 families, in all almost 700 individuals.
- Pray specifically for the hearts of the children we serve. Holidays usually bring up their pasts in difficult ways.
- Pray for our houseparents during this busy season. May times of connection and fun be present in each home.
- Pray for children who will spend part of their holidays with biological family members. Pray that those times will be encouraging and show fruit from the work that the families have poured into this year.
- Continue to pray for the court judges as they make important life changing decisions for children and families we serve.
- Pray for year-end donations to be able to move into 2025. Year-end giving helps propel us into the new year with zero debt and the confidence that we can continue the much needed programs to serve both the children and their families.

Mission Trip
Short-term mission teams are a tremendous blessing to our ministry, and we look forward to each group that comes.
We work on a schedule to give you the opportunity to spend time with the children of La Casa, work on a meaningful project and know about El Salvador and the culture. However, if your group feels called to plan something more structured, we’d be happy to work with your group on this.
Your project could include any of the following, or a combination, depending on our needs at the time of your visit: painting, mixing and pouring cement, cleaning and organizing, working with one our families, landscaping, repairs, construction, room design, preparing for the new school year, community outreach, etc. Teams will also have the opportunity to help us be good neighbors by visiting and praying with many of the widows and other families in the community around our farm.
Some time during the week, your teams will have a free afternoon to experience the culture of El Salvador. As we work with your group to plan your visit, we will let you know your schedule in a more defined way and provide you with a list of options that we would recommend for your free time.
