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.

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.
