Since the beginnings of this ministry we have depended on
the help of work teams to build and develop most of the homes,
buildings and other structures which make up our two properties.
The Lighthouse Ranch in Venezuela began with one small home
and a horse stable on the property. Now, because of the work
teams that have come over the many years, there are three
homes for the boys, a huge two-story community building, a
basketball/recreation area and a large swimming pool. Currently
the "La Baliza" school in the Dominican Republic
is looking at building/remodeling a apartment style building
to house boys during their three month program.
In the past we have had teams of all ages come from the U.S.,
Canada, and Venezuela. The teams come, not only to build,
but to encourage the staff there and to share their love with
the boys. It's truly an exciting time, both for the group
and for those at the Ranch. It's a time for fellowship between
different cultures who, without the bond of Jesus Christ,
would normally not cross paths.
