Casa Hogar para Ninos Esperanza: Our Mission

We are a united group of volunteers consisting of members of Community of Faith Cancun Church, Cancun Christian Fellowship Wednesday and Thursday Christian Women's Group and Mission Partners worldwide. We are a Christian Mission Outreach that provides, among other things, primary assistance to Casa Hogar para Ninos Esperanza. Our responsibility to Casa Hogar is to establish long term Christian relationships with Mission Partners to assure future support and ongoing commitments to assist the home. With the help of our volunteers and Mission Partners, we supply food, clothing, books, facility repairs, remodeling and activities for the children at our Christian home.

Before guests are invited to visit the orphanage, they must attend one of our Sunday church services. It gives us a chance to meet them and they meet us. We will then arrange your orphanage visit and introduce you to the staff and children that reside in the home.

At present, there are 13 children ages three to seventeen. Guests will be free to interact with the children and visit with staff members. Some CoFC volunteers must be with all guests to help with introductions, translation (Spanish is spoken at the home) and answer your questions. Visits between 11:30 and 1:00 seem to work the best and advance preparations are a must.

Laurie Lipp offers a Children’s Bible Study Class each Sunday for children ten and under. The class is held in the showroom at the front of Plaza Tokal (our fabulous new church facility). For additional details, please contact Laurie before or after the service. She will be excited to talk to you.

We are currently seeking someone to lead our Wednesday Men’s Group. Please contact Tom Martin at tommartinmx@gmail.com / 998-121-1316 for additional information.

A Wednesday Morning and a Thursday Evening Christian Women’s Study Group is also offered by Cancun Christian Fellowship. The Wednesday Group meets at the Malecon Americas Starbucks at 10:00 AM and the Thursday Evening Business Ladies Group meets at the Malecon Americas California Kitchen Pizza at 6:30 PM. For more information please contact Cherilyn Martin. 998-121-1315 / cherilynmartin@gmail.com

“Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.” Theodore Roosevelt

Remember, Community of Faith Cancun always meets at 10:00 AM SHARP.

That’s it for today…WE HOPE TO SEE YOU IN OUR NEW CHURCH FACILITY THIS SUNDAY!
