Prince of Peace
Home for Girls in Guatemala
For over 30 years Prince of Peace has been a safe Christ-Centered
home for abused, abandoned, and neglected girls in Guatemala.
Who We Are
Prince of Peace Home for Girls
Prince of Peace is a home for girls who have been removed from their family homes by the courts due to extreme trauma, abuse, or neglect. We strive to provide a safe, loving Christian home and focus on the psychological, physical, and spiritual needs of each girl. Our primary goal is for each girl to open their hearts and foster a life-long relationship with Jesus Christ.
What We Do
Care
- SUPERVISION: Loving staff provide 24-hour care for the girls.
- PSYCHOLOGICAL/PHYSICAL/SPIRITUAL: Professional medical, dental, and psychological staff support is provided to help the girls heal and become whole again.
Education
- EDUCATION: At our on-site school, teaching staff work to meet the learning styles and unique needs for each girl.
Our Mission
A Safe Haven for Abandoned Girls
- Provide for all the needs of the girls – physical, psychological, and spiritual.
- Create a safe, healthy, and happy environment for the girls to live, heal, and grow.
- Have each girl learn to accept Jesus Christ into their lives. No matter where they go in the future, their relationship with God remains within their hearts and minds.
- Provide a foundation so that each girl can become a productive, Godly Guatemalan woman in their community.
GET INVOLVED
- First and foremost, we need your prayers! We serve a God that hears the prayers of His children.
- Bring or join a Team! Come and experience Guatemala first-hand and serve at the Home and support the community through our outreach activities.
- Donate! Without the generous hearts of our donors, our program would not exist as we rely solely on your generosity.
- Sign up for Communications! We love to share about the happenings at Prince of Peace through our newsletters and communications. The girls love to hear from you, as well!
