Baja Mission
In 1966 Chuck and Charla Pereau founded the ministry as a small orphange, which has since grown to become a thriving, multi-faceted ministry. Today eighty plus needy and/or abandoned children are provided the necessities of life in a loving, Christian environment at the Mission. The Mission provides seven households for children between the ages of 2 years to 16 years. A Christian couple lives in each household acting as houseparents, living with them in this family atmosphere are twelve children of both sexes and various ages. Each child is treated as a member of the family, which includes both privileges and obligations.

Our children receive spiritual instruction in God's Word as it applies to practical daily living.
Academic studies begin at preschool age. It is required that each child study while he is here, and that he take full advantage of his time in the local public school. A tutor is provided to reach this goal. Each child is taught English as a second language, as being bilingual will assure future employment in Mexico.
The children receive music instruction and through participation in musical drama presentations, are learning to reach others in their community with the Gospel. The Mission has also hosted very successful workshops in the Arts, and we welcome Spanish-speaking educators to offer their talents for a few days.
Physical education comes naturally to the children at the Mission, and they daily enjoy many sports such as soccer, track & field, baseball, and basketball.
At twelve years of age, the boys are moved into the "bunk house," complete with houseparents, and they begin to receive apprenticeship training in the trades of construction, mechanics, printing, and upholstery. A small agricultural research station, specializing in fruit, is also a vocational teaching tool.
