RESI Rie

A home for children
in a family environment

New residence project

 

We want to make a call to churches, pastors, brothers, friends and everyone who knows us, to ask, first of all, for prayer and second, for prayer for their future as well as help so that the “New Emmanuel Children’s Residence” becomes a reality.

Where we are

As you know, the RIE is located in the town of Sant Just Desvern, in a house of which we have a “concession of use” from some believers whose generosity has gone beyond what we could have imagined. We have been in that house for more than 40 years without having to pay any rent.

Right now, socioeconomic conditions, especially those related to family mobility, are causing an exponential increase in the percentage of children living in poverty in our cities. This translates into a greater number of children living in severe poverty, moderate poverty or with incomes bordering on poverty.

This social situation is raising awareness among institutions, which are devoting more economic resources to the care and protection of children in precarious situations. However, this help is not enough to reach all the children who need it.

As Christians, through the Emmanuel Children’s Residence, we must continue to be an effective response to society. It is necessary to adapt our facilities to the new demand and social reality. Our current house does not meet the conditions for:

 

  • To welcome more children who need help.
  • To provide them with a safe and appropriate space for their comprehensive development.
  • To offer them the necessary tools to overcome difficulties and build a better future.
Where are we going?

For some time now we have had the vision of reaching out to help more children and more families and, therefore, the need to change location, since the house does not meet the necessary conditions, nor does it comply with the current regulations to be expanded and continue to host the Emmanuel family.

We call on the solidarity of the community to help us adapt our facilities and to continue being a light of hope for the most vulnerable children. Together we can build a better future for many children.

We have already made a preliminary project for new construction, from the Ambròs Monsó architectural studio. It is very exciting and appropriate to the needs and regulations of what a children’s home should be.

In a few days we will give the “deposit” for the land and from that we will take the necessary steps to make the “NEW RIE” a reality, with the help of the Lord.

“The Lord is good to all, and his compassion, above all his works. “Lord, all your works will give you thanks, and your people will bless you!”
Psalm 145:9-10

The Emmanuel Children’s Home began in 1967 as an initiative approved by a group of evangelical Christian women from Catalonia and Spain, and became a reality in January 1969. Since then and up to the present, many people have worked in this reception service from which numerous children have benefited.

The purpose of the Family Home is to promote the comprehensive development of the children we care for, indirectly helping their families to restore adverse situations with the aim of each child being able to return home.
