La Ola Children’s Shelter
“WHERE LITTLE MIRACLES HAPPEN EVERY DAY”
La Ola Casa Hogar is a children’s shelter located in Jocotepec, Mexico, about 25 minutes outside of Guadalajara. We are an interfaith children’s ministry. Our scope is more than that of an orphanage in that we care for abandoned and abused children as well as orphans. We opened in January 2010 and are a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization. We are supported solely by private donations. We currently house 12 children ranging in ages from 2 – 15, providing shelter, food, clothing, education, English instruction and other extracurricular activities. We offer medical, dental and psychological services, most of which are provided through the generosity of local health care professionals.
La Ola means “The Wave” in Spanish. It signifies that this shelter is covering our children with a wave of God’s love.
Matthew 8:27 The men were amazed and asked, “What kind of man is this? Even the winds and the waves obey him.”
