Carl and Lisa Norton and their family are serving in San Lucas, Guatemala. Their ministry focuses on three aspects of orphan care.
Continuous Orphan Care
Going into existing special needs children’s homes on a weekly basis – building relationships with the children, nannies, and directors. They share the love of Christ through playing, singing, praying, reading bible stories and loving on the children in the homes.
Preventative Orphan Care
Our ministry also makes weekly trips into a nearby village to build relationships with families in crisis, offer assistance when needed, play and pray for the children and families. The goal of this part of the ministry is to strengthen family ties so that families are able to stay together in a safe, healthy environment.
Emergency Orphan Care
Serving the Shepherd, Loving His Lambs is expanding to take in children who are being removed from their home due to dangerous or unhealthy situations. This is similar to foster care in the United States.
