“It gave me peace and tranquility in my heart. Casa Hogar continues to shape us and help us with the things we have struggled with. I am very grateful because they have helped us so much, and I feel different now in my life.”

Sonia was one of the first children welcomed to Casa Hogar Niños del Camino when it opened its doors in 2006. She arrived at just four years old after experiencing significant hardship and abuse in her biological home. Child services eventually removed Sonia and her siblings from that environment and placed them in the care of Casa Hogar.

Read full story expand_more

Because of what she had experienced at such a young age, Sonia was a very quiet and shy child who often hid within herself. She remembers that, over time, the people at Casa Hogar patiently helped her learn to communicate, build relationships, and trust those around her.

Sonia is especially grateful for the people who have taught and guided her throughout the years. She says their patience and support played an important role in shaping her character and helping her mature. Today, Sonia continues to live at the orphanage, where she feels confident, peaceful, and happy to be part of a loving home, currently working while helping with responsibilities around the home. Looking toward the future, she hopes to have a family, live in a way that honors God, and one day travel to another state as a missionary.
