Project Mexico Celebrates Grand Opening of Casa Cuna San Felipe, North America's First Orthodox Christian Infant Orphanage

Northern Baja, Mexico – June 28, 2024 – Project Mexico welcomed over 250 guests to our 16-acre ranch in northern Baja on Friday, June 28th, to celebrate the grand opening of Casa Cuna San Felipe, the only Orthodox Christian Infant Orphanage in North America. This landmark event marks a significant milestone in our mission to provide a safe, nurturing environment for vulnerable infants.

The grand opening ceremony was a joyous occasion, blessed by our Executive Director and Priest, Fr. Nicholas Andruchow, alongside nearly a dozen Orthodox priests from parishes around the world. Their presence and prayers underscored the deep spiritual commitment and global support for our mission.

Casa Cuna San Felipe stands as a testament to our dedication to the care and well-being of orphaned infants, providing them with a loving home grounded in Orthodox Christian values. This new facility will offer these children not only a place to live but also a foundation of faith, love, and security.

As our ministry continues to grow, so do our needs for additional housing. One of our most pressing needs is the construction of long-term housing for our female missionaries. These dedicated women play a crucial role in the day-to-day care and upbringing of the children, and providing them with suitable housing is essential to the continued success of our mission.

We invite all our supporters and those who believe in our cause to contribute to our Nanny Housing Fund. Your generous donations will help us build the necessary housing to support our missionaries and ensure the continued care of the children at Casa Cuna San Felipe.
