The New Casa de Mi Padre
Our Vision
Our Past
Shane Sanderson founded Child Rescue International 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, Guatemala. At that time, there was no orphanage in the city. He teamed up with a local Guatemalan church, and Child Rescue was born.
Within the first two months he had sixteen children living at Casa de Mi Padre! Within a few years, more people were catching on to the vision and heart of the mission.
Our Present
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!
Our Future
It's a slow process, but every day we are taking steps toward our future to make it a reality! Instead of having one large home, we plan to have a small village of four family sized homes with a common house to take meals in together and for school.
We will still function as one big family, but will also have small family units with house parents in each home. We are so excited about where the Lord is leading us! Will you join us in investing in the future of Case de Mi Padre and the future of the children we serve?
Invest in Casa's Future
Main Building
The main building will be set up with staff offices, a large dining room and kitchen for all the staff and children to eat together, and house the director of operations and his family. This space will allow all the children to be together for daily education, evening family devotions and celebrate life's many milestones.
Individual Family Homes
The four family homes on site will allow house parents more individual time with the children and create a family style atmosphere for the children to grow and learn. The McCauley's are praying and working to raise funds to construct the last 2 family-sized homes on the new property of Casa de mi Padre.
