Casa Roble
Casa Roble (Oak House, founded in 2008) is in its 2nd year as a rescue home for abused and abandoned boys from La Chureca. The purpose of the home is to be a place of refuge and healing where the boys' physical, emotional, and spiritual needs are met. Our goal is to give the boys a safe environment where they don't have to fend for themselves, but instead can grow in their gifts as they are deeply cared for and loved. The cornerstone verse that inspired the mission and name of this refuge house is from Isaiah 61:1-3 "that they might be called Oaks of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified. Then they will rebuild the ancient ruins, they will raise up the former devastations; and they will repair the ruined cities, the desolations of many generations.
