Spring 2007 - First Dorms Built for Visitor's Center

During Easter break 2007, The King's Academy (Sunnyvale,CA) sent a team of 50 high school students to help us build the very first building at the Mi Casa Children's Home site: Dorms 1-3 at the Visitors Center (where our volunteer teams would stay)

July 2008 - Visitor's Center Gets Second Wing

King's returns and helps us frame, enclose and roof the second wing of the Visitors Center during their annual Servant Safari.

July 2008 - Caretaker's Home Purchased
We were truly blessed in July as well, as Stockton FBC also helped us to purchase a used mobile home in which to house our on-site caretakers.

(You don't leave buildings unattended in Mexico unless you want the pieces to disappear while you're gone)
