ANDREA'S HOME of HOPE and JOY
Orphanage that rescues and equips children to impact the world!
Faith in the Soil
With hands in the soil and faith in their hearts, Andreas home staff and students have begun planting yucca with the goal of cultivating five hectares of land. This work is more than agriculture—it is an act of obedience, perseverance, and trust in God’s timing. By sowing faithfully today, we are building a more sustainable future for the children entrusted to our care.
"Let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up" - Galatians 6:9
Graduation Season
This season we rejoice with our young adults as they graduate from high school — a remarkable achievement and a milestone in their journey toward independence and purpose. At Andrea’s Home of Hope and Joy, we are dedicated not only to providing a loving family environment for children, but also to equipping them for life beyond the home. Thanks to the faithful support of our community, our new Aging-Out Home now stands ready to walk with these graduates as they transition to college, vocational training, and meaningful work. This home offers structure, mentorship, and opportunity — a place where dreams take shape and independence is nurtured in a safe, supportive environment.
About Us
Love in Action International Ministries supports and manages the Andrea's Homes of Hope and Joy located in Latin America. We are a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization based out of Missouri with an additional local office located in Summerville, SC.
In response to the gospel, Love in Action rescues orphaned, abandoned, abused, and extremely poor children in Latin America, introduces them to Jesus Christ, nurtures them in a loving family home environment and equips them through education and discipleship to impact the world.
Love in Action has also established businesses that partially support and assist the home; a farm. café and bakery. The café and bakery were opened in 2023.
Each of these entities allows the older children to learn marketable skills as well as offer income for the homes.
