When completed, the two-story facility will house a soup kitchen that can serve up to 160 people at a time, as well as a 300-seat sanctuary. The facility will also include an orphanage and educational areas for Bible classes, services for kids, dormitories and more. Plans for the area surrounding the center include building educational workshops where young people will learn skills like woodworking, sewing and welding, which will allow them to provide for their own families in the future, according to Alvarado.
Alvarado and his staff continue to stand in faith for the remainder of the finances to come in to finish the ministry center debt free.
He is quick to point out that the center will not be a feeding program. Instead, it will be a place of transformation where children and their families will receive a fresh start—spiritually, emotionally and physically.
“This is where lives are going to be transformed,” says Alvarado. “It’s all about the kids because we want to reach this generation right here.”
Speaking to the children during the first day of the Victory Campaign, Alvarado told them: “Your life is about to be transformed. Things will never be the same. It’s only through faith in God. You look like God because He is your Father, and He loves you.”
