- May God Bless You All! -
Pastor Freddy Duarte & Missionary Eva Hernandez started a small home with about 10 kids in early 2002. Now more than 6 years later, we are a happy family of 24 kids & many helpers who strive to live a cohesive life by the Power of God who provides for each and every one of our needs.
An interesting dynamic of this family is that even though kids DO come and go, as is the nature of Mexico's Casa
Hogar system, visiting groups notice the children appear as though they have all grown up
together, showing a cohesiveness that seems to blur the line between orphanage and lifelong family. It's not long
before the new kids are getting along as though they have been there all their lives. This is a result of the
environment that God has created through Pastor Freddy and Sister Eva. While this family is not without its
problems, (each child comes to us with a unique but equally terrible past), The Power of Christ is in this place,
and each child KNOWS he is loved.
In closing, it was Freddy and Eva's vision to achieve these goals they believed to be absolutely necessary to
make what would be called an orphanage actually operate as a very close, loving family:
- Love the kids in Jesus' name.
- Set rules: a time to get up, a time to eat, a time to pray, a time to play, a time to learn, a time to share with
each other, a time to go to bed.
- Establish and implement this structure with love, sensitivity, discretion, consistancy, strength, and caring, as
led by the Holy Spirit's example as set in the Word.
So on we go into the future with the knowledge that God is with us, He loves us, He is in control, and with Him
everything is possible!
"Con Dios, Todo es Posible!"
Dios te Bendiga!

Esperanza 4 U is having its 1st Annual “Rice & Beans” project. With Thanksgiving around the corner we are looking forward to collecting donations to feed at least 400 of the starving families in Tijuana, Baja California and Rosarito Mexico. America’s neighbor Mexico is home to large numbers of people without education, access to natural resources, and means to survive or sustain themselves. We are asking for your help in this project, we know that many people would like to help but don’t have the time or money, so here is your chance to make a difference. Help us feed the innocent children that are born into poverty. You can visit our page at http://www.myspace.com/esperanza4udotorg
Esperanza 4 U, a six-month-old charitable organization focuses on empowering. Our mission goes beyond feeding a hungry child. We work to help children in need by providing them with opportunities to help them grow under humane and nurturing conditions and become productive members in their own communities.
