About Casa Di Me Padre

The ministry of Child Rescue is to provide refuge and shelter for needy children coming from poverty, shattered homes, abandonment, or who are orphaned through death. 

Child Rescue meets the physical needs of children in order to have the opportunity to meet their spiritual and emotional needs. 

Child Rescue has established Casa De Mi Padre (My Father’s House) children’s home where children will receive hope, stability, food, clothing, shelter, family, schooling, solid Biblical instruction, and living examples of God’s love.

Shane Sanderson founded Child Rescue in 2012. He felt the call to international missions, specifically to orphan care, and eventually discovered the great need for a children's home in Santa Cruz del Quiche. At that time, there was no home in the city whatsoever. He teamed up with a local Guatemalan church, and Casa De Mi Padre was born. 

​

Within the first two months he had sixteen wild children living at Casa! Within a few years, more people were catching on to the vision and heart of Casa De Mi Padre. Several other missionaries have shared in the mission, and left the U.S. to help raise the children as well. 

In 2016, the owner of the home we rent decided to sell it. Thus began Shane's dream of building a home created to meet the needs of the ministry! It's a slow process, but every day we are making progress! 

Instead of having one large home, we will have a small village of four family sized homes with a common house to take meals in together and school. We will still function as one big crazy family, but will also have small family units with house parents in each home. We are so excited about what the Lord is doing with this new piece of our ministry's adventure!

The McCauley's are praying and working to raise funding to construct the last 2 family-sized homes on the new property of Casa de MI Padre.
