Nepomuceno Children's Home

“…for in You the fatherless find compassion.” (Hosea 14:3)

    The Nepomuceno Children's Home had its beginning in 1963. Arnold and Carol Boich were its Founders. It was the first of several children’s homes established by the North American Apostolic Christian Church (Nazarene) in the country of Brazil. At one point having scores of boys, the government has now set a limit to the number of children they can serve. However, the home continues to care for abandoned and

abused children and youth, has a full farm (fruit, vegetables, coffee, pigs, fish, cattle), and now also runs an after-school program for community children. The after-school program teaches farming skills, some trades and other life skills, and teaches about who Jesus is.
