The Los Asises Community Development Center is a dream being realized. Some 15 years ago, Pastor Casanova and his church, Juan 3:16, purchased a small piece of land adjacent to the church and engage an architect to draw plans for a building to house their burgeoning Compassion International program, vocational training classes, church activities and more. Since then, they've prayed that God would provide the resources needed to build this critically needed facility.

Summer mission teams from South Carolina and Tennessee completed columns and walls for phase one during 2016 and 2017.

Late in 2017, funds were received to install the beams.  Workers from our partners in Haina helped with installation and preparation for the metal deck installation.

On October 27, 2018, phase 1 was completed, dedicated and the Compassion Ministry moved its ministry into the facility.

In early 2019, construction on the next phase began. This phase will include a commercial kitchen and cafeteria.
