The Casa Materna Project seeks to provide critically needed medical services and education to impoverished mothers and babies in the rural mountain region of San Juan La Laguna, Guatemala. Due to the remoteness of the area, the lack of affordable maternal and newborn medical services, and the traditional preference for home births, this region has one of the highest maternal mortality ratios (338 per 100,000 live births) in the Western hemisphere. Our goal is for all the women of the San Juan La Laguna area to have an affordable, accessible and safe place to deliver their babies and thereby decrease fetal and maternal mortality in the region.

Connecting the community to hope. There are a large number of youth within the Northern Lancaster County community that are from broken homes and in desperate need of “Jesus with skin on”. R.E.A.L. Youth Ministry was formed from this need and is dedicated to working with local Cocalico area churches, schools, community leaders, parents, and businesses partnering together to make a difference in these young peoples lives. Later, in 2015, we changed our name to REAL Life Community Services to better represent what we do in the community. REAL currently assists over 70 families a year with financial, emotional, and spiritual support as they better their lives.

Baja Bound began in 1993 when a group of friends in San Diego had the vision to change lives on both sides of the border. Over the years Baja Bound has worked in the Tijuana, Tecate, and Ensenada areas. In 2004 they became aware of the dramatic needs of the immigrant communities traveling north to work in the agricultural fields of Baja. They stumbled across a magnificent plan to build an incredible home quickly and affordably; the rest is history. They now center the majority of their activities in the Ensenada area. They also offer groups various missional, service, and ministry opportunities at local orphanages, churches, shelters, and humanitarian organizations.

Brendah’s Hope will be an excellent provider of spiritual/moral, social, health, education, economic, and basic needs in support of orphans and other vulnerable children in 3rd world countries, and to provide them a stable living arrangement that fosters autonomy. We are currently working closely with SPCF Children's Home, located in Uganda. There are little resources, little funding to sustain it, and very limited man-power to run it. Because of the challenges that SPCF and other "orphanages" like it are facing, and what the challenges entail - starving children with no education, poor health, and no basic needs being met, Brendah's Hope was created in 2016.

In this way we seek to be humble participants in the Great Commission of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, who said on the day of His ascension into heaven, "Go into all the world and preach the Good News to all creation".
