Help us give these children a Christmas!
As you have heard, Tijuana has become a dangerous place to visit. But thanks to God we have not been affected directly. But we have been affected in others ways!
Many groups have canceled for two years straight and we have lost funds that we have counted on.
This year we have fallen short by $16,000.00.
Churches that normally send gifts for everyone in the ministry, have said they can’t this year!
Many of our children in the ranch and Delicias will not be given any gifts this year unless we have some response soon!
As I stand here where I live, seeing Point Loma and downtown San Diego, I cannot help but wonder how many of our children who live in the hillsides or the dumps see the same thing, with a hope, saying if only I could cross the border! Everything would be different!
Sad to say, that is far from the truth for so many, who try to cross daily. Many are robbed, while others are raped, while others are left alone in the desert, lost not knowing where to go!
So if I can plead with you, If you can send something our way… nothing big, a small toy car or a doll, tarps or warm blankets as the cold comes in. Or just some hard cash to help get pass during these difficult times.
Help us give these children a Christmas and all those who we minister to!
Thanks for keeping us close to your hearts. We hope each one of you have a Happy and meaningful Christmas!

House of Grace “Sponsor-A-Child”
In James 1:27 it says, “Pure and undefiled religion before our God and Father is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself unstained by the world” And that is what we do. We always have our doors open for those who need help. Many of the children we have here at the House of Grace have come from homes with abuse and neglect. From parents who do drugs, or who are in prostitution or who’ve abandoned them when they were little causing them to grow up in orphanages.

Carlos, Rossy & Girls 
La Roca Ministries reaches out to touch people’s lives that are devastated by poverty, neglect and despair. These people find themselves enslaved to drugs and alcohol and living in the streets of Tijuana, Mexico. Our desire is to mirror Christ’s compassion and concern to these people.
It has been said, “give a person a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach him how to fish and you feed him for a life.” We believed in “teaching people how to fish”. We want to see lives transformed and we believe that comes through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
Our program seeks to help rebuild lives by making disciples; raising up men, women and teens as future leaders and missionaries, and sending them forth to advance the Kingdom of God on earth.
Thank you for your prayers and financial support. You are making a difference today and for eternity! -
My name is Amanda and I am 22 years old. I have been coming to Tj since I was 14. I came down here last month (January) to stay for a year. Its amazing being here and watching people’s lives being changed by the various ministries. I am so blessed to be here. I know a lot of people worry about the violence and decide not to come. But there is no reason to be afraid. Out of all the times I’ve been down here, I’ve never had a problem with anything. We’ve actually gone to the beach in the evening had a small worship service before. You shouldn’t wander off alone to late, but it’s not like you should do that in any city. I’m more scared when I’m wandering around my own city at night then I am here. All I know is that God called me here, and nothing will stop me because I have him on my side. There is a phrase I keep posted that says, “Fear knocked at the door, and faith answered, there was no one there.” What more is there to say ?
