What began as a small orphanage in 2007 has grown into a loving home for 43 children. We need more space for teens and our staff. Please help us raise $30,000 that will be used to purchase land for expansion.

Update #3

We’ve reached our goal of $30,000—PRAISE THE LORD! Thank you so much to those of you who contributed financially to make this possible. Thank you for allowing the Lord to use you to enable the ministry of ROM to grow and to continue pouring out love, mercy, and care to needy children in Juarez.

While we have been campaigning to raise funds to complete the land payment, our need for this piece of land has already arisen. Our growth has made it necessary for us to “overflow” onto this new piece of property! And so even though we have not completed payment, we are being allowed to use the three existing homes on the property for necessary staff housing. One of our teachers, Ivone, and her husband and two daughters (see photo), are living in one of the homes.

Another one of our staff members, Berenice, and her husband will soon be leaving their room inside the orphanage building and moving into another home on the new property, thus making space in the orphanage for a new full-time missionary, Elona, who is moving to ROM in August. For various reasons these staff members have the need for on-site housing, and, as you can see, this additional piece of property is already helping these needs. We have other plans for the land as well which we’ll move forward with as the Lord leads, such as housing for the older children who end up growing up here at ROM. Thank you for playing a special part in this exciting new chapter of our ministry. May the Lord bless you!

Update #2

Much thanks to those who have contributed financially toward the land project! Small business Lularoe JessKay came up with a creative way to raise money for the land purchase; for one week, a percentage of their sales were donated to this cause. In addition, they asked their shoppers to purchase leggings for the girls at the orphanage!!! (see photo)
In all, many supporters have contributed over $22,000 to the land project thus far, so we only need $8,000 more to meet our goal of $30,000.

God is good! We have been given an amazing donation of $10,000 for the land purchase. We are so grateful to these donors, as well as to everyone else who has donated, for allowing God to use them to advance His work. The Lord is faithful, and continues to show us that when He calls us to do something, He provides!
