A youth team came in and performed dramas for the kids
 

Over the last decade, missions work has grown by leaps and bounds as the urgency to spread the gospel around the world has penetrated the hearts of many Christians. The majority of the increase of missions work has come from people who take vacations to serve for a short period of time. Within that group, falls 2 catagories of short term work. Teams and individual volunteers. Here at Casa Shalom, we have great needs for both types to come and serve with us. Volunteering with us has many perks and is a very rewarding experience for people from all backgrounds and ages.

 

       
Teams
Here at Casa Shalom, there are a number of things that teams could help us out with. It seems that there are always construction projects taking place and painting that needs to be done. There is also a need for just having people here to love on the kids. We have 65 kids living here at Casa Shalom and only about 20 staff. The more people we have here, the more love the kids can receive. With this group of kids, it does not matter if you do not speak Spanish. The language of love can go a long way in communication. If you are interested in bringing a team to Casa Shalom or would like more information, please email us at info@casashalom.net.

Individuals
Just as there are many opportunities for teams, there are many for individuals who would like to come and serve at Casa Shalom. Love is one of the most important things that a person can instill in a child and the more loving people we have here working, the more that can be given out. As an individual volunteer, you can have the opportunity to help out the house parents in raising these precious children. You will also have the opportunity to cook for them, tell your favorite childrens stories to them, etc. There are many, many things you can do. If you are interested or would like more information, please email us at info@casashalom.net.
