LETTER FROM THE FAMILY:

Dear Homes of Hope team, my name is Beatriz, I am from Puebla, and I am a single mother of two daughters. I arrived in Tijuana nine years ago in search of a better life—at that time, my eldest daughter was six years old. Later, I met a young man and we moved in together; he helped care for my daughter while I worked. During that time, I became pregnant, and we also started taking Ana Luisa to the doctor because she wasn’t speaking or understanding us. We were referred to CRIT, where she was diagnosed with an intellectual disability and was recommended for speech therapy. When Arisbeth was born and the COVID pandemic hit, the general hospital stopped providing her care. Around that same time, I received the heartbreaking news that my mother had passed away. I was devastated—without a mother, having never met my father, and now fully responsible for my daughters as my partner decided to leave us. I couldn’t find work due to the pandemic, so I began selling our furniture. Later, I moved in with a friend and started selling food, then found a job as a nanny while a neighbor helped watch my daughters. Unfortunately, problems with my friend forced me to leave, but thankfully another kind neighbor took us in and even helped me find a job cleaning houses. Sadly, COVID left me with lung issues and anemia, so I get sick frequently. Eventually, I had to leave that home too and ended up in an unsafe place for my daughters. Tired of moving constantly, I made a promise to myself to buy a plot of land and finally did, thank God. However, due to my daughter’s school situation, I had to stop working again, and things went downhill financially. I began selling food, and my sister later moved in with us and helps with half the rent, though it's not a long-term solution since she may marry soon. I now have a stable job, the pay is low, but my employer allows me to leave early to pick up my daughter and in return gives us food, groceries, or clothes. For all these reasons, I haven’t been able to build even a small room for us, so we can live in peace. I truly thank you for your attention and hope that I may receive the blessing of a home for my daughters and me.

LETTER FROM THE FAMILY:

Dear Homes of Hope team, my name is Maria, and I am requesting a small house through your organization because I am the only one working, as my husband is unable to do so. He is disabled and cannot find employment, and the small pension he receives is not enough. We are a low-income family with very limited resources, and almost everything we earn goes toward covering expenses for our two young children. From the bottom of our hearts, we ask for your support.

LETTER FROM THE FAMILY:

Dear Homes of Hope team, we are a small family of four. We met 16 years ago and have been together for 13. We used to live with my parents in Ensenada, as they supported us. That’s where our first daughter was born. My husband has always been the provider, and I have stayed home. We got by with his salary and the help of our families. We moved to Tijuana looking for better job opportunities. At first, we lived with my sisters-in-law while we got on our feet, then we moved out to rent a place of our own for more privacy. We found a place close to my husband’s job so he could walk and save on transportation costs. While renting, some friends encouraged us to start paying for a plot of land, and they allowed us to build a small wooden room on their property in the meantime. It was a blessing because instead of paying rent, we used that money to make payments on our land. The room had no floor, and we used a black plastic sheet for the roof, so when the rains came, everything got soaked and muddy, and no one lived nearby back then. Slowly, the area started to fill with more families. We lived there for three years, and during that time, our second baby was born. Eventually, we were allowed to move onto our own land, so we poured a concrete floor and built a basic structure. We’ve been living here for a year now, but it’s not very spacious. That’s why I’m asking for your support—to turn our house into a warm and welcoming home. We have faith that you can help us. Thank you.

LETTER FROM THE FAMILY:

Dear Homes of Hope team, I respectfully and humbly write to request your valuable help in building a dignified home for my children. We are currently living in very difficult conditions: my two teenage children and I share a small wooden room with no cement floor. Despite our situation, my children are attending high school and help me as much as they can. They are responsible young people with a strong desire to get ahead. To make ends meet, the three of us work on weekends at the street market selling stuffed animals. This helps us cover the basics, but we haven’t been able to save enough to improve our living conditions. I was recently diagnosed with gallstones, which has affected my health and prevented me from working at full capacity. I sincerely appreciate you taking the time to read my request. May God bless you for this noble work.

LETTER FROM THE FAMILY:

Dear Homes of Hope team, first of all, I want to thank God and all of you for giving us this opportunity—a true ray of hope. My husband and I met 11 years ago; at the time, I was a single mother to one child. We later got married and rented a home for three years. My husband works as a construction worker, and I support him by selling second-hand items at the street market, since I don’t have a steady job because I take care of our children. For the past eight years, we’ve been living with my parents as a way to receive some financial support. However, it has been a constant struggle, as my brother and his family also live there, which often leads to conflict. Thankfully, God gave us the opportunity to acquire a piece of land through payments—this represents our biggest dream: to have a home of our own. It once felt like a distant dream, but after hearing many stories of families helped by Casas de Esperanza, we pray with all our hearts that we too may be blessed. We are truly grateful for being heard.

LETTER FROM THE FAMILY:

Dear Homes of Hope team, I write this letter with my faith placed in God and in you. I have been living in Tijuana for 14 years; I’m originally from Guadalajara. Six years ago, God gave me the greatest purpose of my life: to care for my three nephews, for whom I now have legal custody granted by DIF. We currently live in Zona Norte in an apartment where I am allowed to stay in exchange for domestic chores and caring for an elderly man. Unfortunately, the situation has become very difficult, as this man is often verbally abusive and aggressive toward my nephews—sometimes kicking us out or hiding their toys. We have no relatives here in Tijuana who can take us in, and this living situation is emotionally exhausting. The children are already being affected by the toxic environment. That is why I humbly ask for your help, with the hope of having a place we can call our own—a peaceful, safe, and happy home for the four of us. Blessings and thank you very much.

I am unable to work during my pregnancy, and since we have no family nearby to help us, it will likely be some time before I can return to work.

Dear Homes of Hope team, my life has been a bit complicated, as a single mother trying to be the best I can for my daughters and give them what is within my reach—food, education, and everything they need. However, there are times when my income is simply not enough to cover it all. At the moment, we are renting a small space with a friend, where she lives with her three children, and I live with my two girls. It’s a very limited space, and although we’re grateful to have a roof over our heads, I would love for my daughters to have their own space where they can feel more comfortable and at peace. I continue trusting that God will give me strength and provide the means to make this dream a reality. May God bless you for the wonderful work you do, helping so many families who, like mine, are in need of a home.

LETTER FROM THE FAMILY:

Dear Homes of Hope team, Four years ago, we arrived in Rosarito after my partner found a job there. At first, we rented a place, but over time we decided to look for a piece of land. With much effort, we managed to buy one, and we’ve had it for about a year and a half now. However, about a year and a half ago, our lives changed completely. My son began to get sick — he was vomiting, had headaches, and later started having seizures. We had several tests done, even outside the hospital, to rule out an infection in his brain. A CT scan revealed he had a brain tumor. In October, we were referred to San Diego, where they told us it was malignant —a high-grade diffuse glioma, stage IV— and could not be operated on. Since then, everything has changed. My son is no longer the joyful, playful child he once was, and I am no longer the carefree mother I used to be. We went to Mexicali, where he received chemotherapy. During that time, he couldn’t walk; I had to carry him, bathe him, change him, feed him, and care for him like a baby. He began to forget things and had trouble speaking clearly. Meanwhile, my daughter stayed in Rosarito with her father, and expenses piled up — rent, medicine, and other costs. We eventually moved in with my sister-in-law to pay only half of the rent and utilities. That is why we are asking for your support in helping us have our own space, where my son can rest and receive his treatments in a clean and peaceful environment. It would be a tremendous blessing, as we also need to buy medications that the hospital no longer provides. At the moment, I sell Jafra products by catalog. In May, my son had another CT scan, and unfortunately, the tumor continues to grow. Still, we have faith that he will be healed. I keep praying to God for strength to keep going, as it has not been easy. Nathan wants to continue studying; if possible, he will start middle school soon. Having our own home would mean so much to us, as transportation passes nearby and he could attend school more easily. Sending you a warm hug from afar.

LETTER FROM THE FAMILY:

Dear Homes of Hope team, I am a single mother of two children; my oldest just finished middle school, and my youngest is in kindergarten. Two years ago, I separated from their father, although we are still legally married because I haven’t been able to complete the process. I work selling goods at the street market, and for the past eight months, I’ve been living in a small wooden room on my land. One day, I came home and discovered that everything had been stolen. Not long after, the room collapsed—we lost everything: our home, furniture, clothes. We had nowhere to live. Some nights we slept in the car, other nights with my sister or my aunt. The enemy didn’t just destroy my marriage, he attacked us in every way. But the most wonderful thing about God is that He transforms everything. He placed the right people in our lives—people who gave us food, clothes, shoes, and a job. Thanks to them, we were able to return home. That was two years ago, and since then, through great effort, we managed to rebuild a room. But we still live with the uncertainty and fear that it could all happen again. I long to give my children a safe and stable place to call home—they have been through so much. I know that God is in control of their lives and mine, and although He sometimes allows hardship, I trust that His plans are perfect. I thank God for your ministry, and may He continue to bless you for being a blessing to others. Thank you.

LETTER FROM THE FAMILY:

Dear Homes of Hope team, I am a faithful believer and I know that God has a plan and divine purpose for each person. I come from a very humble background and was the product of a rape. My mother was an indigenous woman, defenseless, and when I was born, her parents gave me up for adoption. I was welcomed into a home where I found light, love, and hope—I went from a gray world to being part of a family filled with love and compassion. They became my parents, my pride, and my example to follow in life. Today, only my mother is still with us; she is 75 years old, and my father passed away 15 years ago at the age of 69. We are originally from Durango, where jobs are scarce, which is why we came to Tijuana five years ago. We asked for shelter, and thanks to God, doors were opened for us. I found work at a restaurant, and we began saving for a down payment on a piece of land. Over the years, we have lived in various rented places, always adjusting to our income, expenses, and the land payments. My daughter, who is currently in high school, helps by baking cookies to sell. I also had a son, but he passed away; even in his absence, he continues to guide my steps. My children are the reason I wake up each day with hope and faith. My daughter only has me, and I fear leaving her unprotected, as I am her only support. We built a small room, but the Santa Ana winds destroyed the roof, forcing us to return to renting. At the moment, we are also housing a cousin and a nephew. Your help could truly make a difference in our lives. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

LETTER FROM THE FAMILY:

Dear Homes of Hope team,. my name is Patricia, and my story begins in childhood, when I was 10 years old and my parents took me to California, where I studied through high school. I always dreamed of becoming a nurse, but I couldn’t pursue it due to my undocumented status. Instead, I got married, but my husband made mistakes that led him to prison. By then, my family had already returned to Mexico, so I was left completely alone and had no choice but to leave the United States. Since I didn’t know Mexico, I stayed in Tijuana. Here, I began a relationship with the father of my youngest son, Eduardo, but it didn’t work out. He never wanted to go to church with me, and our life together was filled with insults. That’s why I decided to separate, and since then, life has been more peaceful. I bought my plot of land six years ago when I was still with my partner, and we both worked. Now, being on my own, I haven’t been able to continue building my dream of a proper home. I currently live in a wooden house, and when it rains, everything gets wet. That’s why I humbly ask for your support, with hope in my heart. Thank you for hearing my prayers.

LETTER FROM THE FAMILY:

Dear Homes of Hope team, we arrived in Tijuana eight years ago, and it was a difficult transition for us, since everything felt very different from what we knew in Sinaloa—the food, the customs, and the way of life. During this time, we have been renting and moving from house to house nearly every year. Three years ago, a neighbor told us about some available lots, and that’s how we began the process of trying to build a home of our own. My husband, my children, and I started clearing the land, and some friends donated wood, which my husband used to build a small room and a bathroom—that became our home. However, during the rainy season, water would come in and everything turned muddy. Thankfully, a church helped us build one proper room, so we tore down the wooden one, which had already started to rot. We’ve managed to build two additional small rooms, a bathroom, and a kitchen, but water still seeps in, and everything remains damp. That is why we humbly ask for your help—to have a more stable, safe, and healthy place to live. We would be truly grateful if you would consider our request.

LETTER FROM THE FAMILY:

Dear Homes of Hope team, my name is Ana Liliana, and I have end-stage kidney disease. I found out about my condition four years ago during my pregnancy. I went to a nephrologist, but unfortunately, he didn’t give me proper guidance—he simply told me there was no cure and no medicine that could repair the damage to my kidneys. Since then, I have lived in fear, closing myself off to the possibility that I might not see my child grow up. However, if God calls me to His presence, I am at peace with that, as I am a faithful believer. Recently, I decided to face my illness again and fight each day to move forward. A year and a half ago, I started dialysis, which is very expensive. My husband’s insurance covers part of the cost, but not all of it. He is the sole provider for our household and is responsible for rent, utilities, food, medical tests, and transportation. Currently, I am undergoing hemodialysis because I had peritonitis and the catheter had to be removed. This has been an extremely difficult time for me and my family. We are currently undergoing the transplant protocol, as my condition is now critical. The transplant will take place in Guadalajara, so we must travel there frequently. I joined efforts with my sister to purchase a piece of land, but we haven’t been able to build on it. I would be deeply grateful if you could support us, as we are truly in need. May God bless you always, guide your path, and multiply everything you give to others.

LETTER FROM THE FAMILY:

Dear Homes of Hope team, we are a family of five who moved from Mexico City eight years ago in search of a better life. Since arriving, we have experienced both blessings and hardships. We were able to purchase a plot of land, but our financial situation has not allowed us to build or live there. Through this letter, we want to share our testimony of how God has taken hold of our lives and broken us in order to strengthen our faith. When we arrived in Rosarito, I—Sarai—started attending a Christian church, but my family was not open to it, so I distanced myself again. I became bitter, constantly complaining, tired of the daily routine. That changed in May 2025 when we felt the need to go back to church and began attending Calvary Rosarito. The most beautiful part was that it was my husband who first felt the calling and encouraged us to go. What we didn’t know was that God was preparing us for the trial ahead. On May 21, our daughter Emily began showing signs of infection and was rushed to the ER; on June 10, she was diagnosed with either leukemia or lupus. Our world collapsed, but the following day her diagnosis changed to thrombocytopenic purpura with pneumonia. A week later she was discharged, but sadly relapsed and worsened. Since there were no hospital beds available, they sent her home with only medication. Desperate, we traveled to Mexico City, where she was admitted urgently. During all of this, my husband remained in Rosarito, but he was never alone—the Word of God and our church family supported him, prayed with him, and gave him encouragement. At the hospital, by my daughter's side, I repented for not being thankful—for life, for health, for family time, and for all of God’s goodness. I used to complain about money, not realizing I already had what mattered most. I broke down in that hospital, asking God, “Why me?” And the answer He gave my husband was 1 Peter 4:12–17. I accepted the trial and thanked God for it—for opening my eyes and teaching me to value what truly matters. Emily continues receiving treatment, tests, and checkups. Even though doctors say the illness is now part of her body, I believe God will heal her completely. At this moment, the cost of tests, specialists, and travel to Tijuana has left us financially strained. That’s why we ask, from the bottom of our hearts, for your help in building a home of hope. This is not just a house—it is the dream of our family and the beginning of a home filled with blessings and faith for a better future. Thank you sincerely for your time and for allowing us to share our story.
