As 2023 ends we want to wish you all a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! We are so very thankful for your continued support of Casa Esperanza of Angels. This past year has had its challenges, but we have weathered the storms and are optimistic about the future.
We hope to increase the numbers of children in our care in the new year and we are excited for the new “CEA Learning Center” building to be completed in the first few months of 2024.
The city has begun work to pave the road leading from the highway to our facility, another blessing coming our way in the new year!
Thank you all for your support and encouragement! We hope everyone enjoys a wonderful holiday season!
Construction Update
The roof is nearly completed on the “CEA Learning Center”! The exterior plaster finish work is complete and finish work on the interior is ongoing. Our electrician has pulled his wire and is
preparing to install outlets and switches. We are getting quotes on painting, soffit/ceiling installation, we have ordered the interior doors, and will order windows soon.
Please consider a donation toward this much needed building if you are able. We are so thankful for the donations that are making this addition to our facility happen!

Lamentations 3:22-24
22Through the LORD’s mercies we are not consumed,
Because His compassions fail not.
23They are new every morning;
Great is Your faithfulness.
24“The LORD is my portion,” says my soul,
“Therefore I hope in Him!”
