Yucatan Evangelicalistic Association updates

Casa Kim Children’s Home is now officially approved by the Mexican government. The building is complete, has passed all inspections, and is currently certified to house 45 children. We are now organizing our staff, recruiting our volunteers, and developing a procedures manual.

All of our children are assigned to us through Yucatan’s social services, and consist of children who are orphaned, abandoned, with parents who are incarcerated for extended periods of time, or children exposed to physical or sexual abuse. Most of them have never experienced normal family life, and have never experienced love or discipline. They may be somewhat lacking in social skills, but have attained very high survival skills. Our mission is to minister to their physical and spiritual needs. Our commitment is to teach them God’s love, and to let them experience God’s love through our everyday contact with them.

It is an awesome responsibility to accept these children into our care. We must love, feed, educate them, and be responsible for their health care.  We must share the love of God with children who have never experienced any type of love. However, we count the blessings.  We are privileged to be the recipients of their love. We get to share their Christmases, birthdays, and hugs. Our family is multiplied. These are real children with the real needs and desires of every child, but they bear in their bodies and souls deep wounds that only the grace of God can heal.

We invite you to share with both the responsibilities and the joys. We need sponsors to help share the financial burden of providing food, clothing, and education for our children. We need the capacity to provide Christmas and birthdays for them.  If the Lord leads you to help with orphan support you can do so by visiting www.yeamissions.org/donations.html

We also need people to just come and spend time with the children at Casa Kim. We invite you to plan a mission trip with us. Our children need your financial support, but also they need your love, your hugs, and your friendship as well.
