Who we are

Our mission

Our mission is to sow a seed of love, particularly among young women who have been abandoned, neglected, or abused. We aim to create a culture of love and ecology by providing an integrative formation in a natural environment. This promotes an encounter with God, education, sustainability, and a healthy lifestyle, all of which have the power to heal the individual and their families, offering a beacon of hope and transformation.

Our Vision

A Sustainable Lifestyle

To provide a spiritual family in an ecologically sustainable environment where one can experience the love of God through a simple lifestyle and nature by feeding one’s mind, body, and spirit. “Sowing Seeds of Life and Family” will transform the lives of these young women and help heal their families and communities.

Measurement Strategy

Opportunity for Growth

Currently, we have space for 8 full-time resident girls. We are considering increasing the number of girls participating in our day program. Additionally, we provide workshops, spiritual retreats, and volunteering opportunities. We can accommodate 20 people per retreat monthly during the spring and summer. We aim to increase this number to 40 participants per month. We are also developing a detox program for guests, offering a choice between 3 to 5 days of organic eating, cleansing techniques, gardening, and hiking, available for booking during spring and summer.
