They wait for the trucks to come and then dig through the garbage looking for food and other valuable things that can be recycled for money. Most of them live right in the middle of the city dump without electricity, without water and without bathrooms. Currently each week we provide a nutritious meal, formula for the babies, we build relationships with each of them, and most importantly sharing God\u2019s love.<\/p>\n<h1><\/h1>\n<hr \/>\n<h1><strong>CHILDRENS HOSPITAL:<\/strong><\/h1>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/ministeriocasaverde.com\/ministry\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_04801-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_04801-225x300\" width=\"172\" height=\"225\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Many children are left alone in the hospital. With working parents and busy nurses most children are lonely. We visit the children in the hospital to bring them joy, laughter is the best medicine! Simply sitting with them to color in the coloring books we provide brings a smile to their face. While we are there we also pray with them and if their parents are present we pray with them as well.<\/p>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/h1>\n<hr \/>\n<h1><strong>NURSING HOME:<\/strong><\/h1>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-184 size-medium alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/ministeriocasaverde.com\/ministry\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Nursing-home-300x2251-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Click photo for more information\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">At the nursing home there are many elderly people eager to share their story. They love to speak about their children, memories from the past, and there is even a gentleman who loves to play the guitar and sing! A lot of times their family doesn\u2019t come to visit leaving them alone. We keep them company, sing with them, and enjoy conversation\u2026sharing the love of Christ through relationships. When we have the sources, we bless them with food, clothing, and shoes!<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h1><strong>ORPHANAGE:<\/strong><\/h1>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-181 size-medium alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/ministeriocasaverde.com\/ministry\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Orphanage-300x2251-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Click photo for more information\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The local orphanage is a place that we like to visit, all the children are under the age of seven and is often referred to as the baby orphanage. \u00a0It really is a convent of catholic nuns who saw the need and started taking in the babies. \u00a0If you are coming for a visit, please feel free to bring cloth diapers, blankets and other baby clothes.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h1><strong>SCHOOLS:<\/strong><\/h1>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-177 size-medium alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/ministeriocasaverde.com\/ministry\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_0582-300x2251-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"click photo for more information\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We visit the Special Needs School and the School for kids who parents live or work in the dump. We play with them during their recess time, sing songs and perform skits, and sometimes help with construction. This is a ministry that benefits everyone! The children have fun and learn about God, the teachers get a little break to relax or prepare for classes, and when doing construction it helps ease the work load and fulfills the needs of the school such as building new classrooms painting and\/or other projects<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h1><strong>STREET &amp; PARK MINISTRY:<\/strong><\/h1>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-178 size-medium alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/ministeriocasaverde.com\/ministry\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Steet-Ministry-300x2251-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Click foto for more information\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Through this ministry, we bring the love of Christ to the streets! We pray with people in the local markets, door to door evangelism, children\u2019s programs in neighborhoods, minster to the prostitutes, share Christ with the break dancers, and prayer walks through neighborhoods. Street ministry looks different based on who we are ministering to but also is based on love, prayer, and God\u2019s word.<\/p>\n<h1><\/h1>\n<hr \/>\n<h1><strong>CHURCH MINISTRY:<\/strong><\/h1>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-182 size-medium alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/ministeriocasaverde.com\/ministry\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG-20130210-01900-300x224-300x224.jpg\" alt=\"Click photo for more information\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We work with several churches in our community. \u00a0We take our teams to the churches to evangelize in the way of drama, worship, testimonies and the word of God. This is often a breath of fresh air for the local church. There is so much power in a testimony! God\u2019s grace and redemption is so beautiful!\u00a0 The work God has done in our lives can be a great encouragement to others and also bring people to Christ. Often times when visiting a church, someone will share their testimony with the congregation.<\/p>\n<h1><\/h1>\n<hr \/>\n<h1><strong>SPORTS MINISTRY:<\/strong><\/h1>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-179 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/ministeriocasaverde.com\/ministry\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Deportes-300x132-300x132.jpg\" alt=\"Click photo for more information\" width=\"300\" height=\"132\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We use sports ministry as a strategic way of showing Gods love. This unique form of evangelism can show Gods love in a different way. F\u00fatbol\u00a0is loved by most which makes it a perfect opportunity to gather people together. Often we visit the park to play F\u00fatbol or basketball with the locals.<\/p>\n<h1><\/h1>\n<hr \/>\n<h1><strong>MISSIONARY HOUSE:<\/strong><\/h1>\n<div id=\"attachment_8\" style=\"width: 187px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ministeriocasaverde.com\/ministry\/ministries\/missionary-house\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8\" class=\"wp-image-8\" src=\"https:\/\/ministeriocasaverde.com\/ministry\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/casa-verde-green-house-md.png\" alt=\"Click photo for more information\" width=\"177\" height=\"162\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-8\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Click photo for more information<\/p><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">is a ministry house that can host teams\u00a0 \u00a0There is also plenty of green space outside should you bring a tent or hammock.
