“Pure and undefiled religion
before GOD and the FATHER is this:
to visit orphans and widows in
their trouble…”
James 1:27
Still Waters Kid’s Home was
first conceived in 2008 by Pastor Virgilio and Linda Jacinto who shared the
vision and the plan for building the home with Myrna Lorraine Barr from
Champaign, Illinois. Miss Barr had desired to be a part of an orphanage for
many years. She came to the Philippines to help with the process of setting up
an orphanage to serve newborn babies and children up to the age of six years
old.
The Jacinto’s oversaw the
construction of the building and Miss Barr oversaw the finishing work and all
the paperwork associated with the project.
The land was already available for the construction on the compound
of Asia Center for Biblical Studies in Majayjay, Laguna and a blue print was
drawn up by Engineer Khim Dolatre for the construction of the building.
A Christian foundation heard
about the plans to build the orphanage and donated $25,000 and an additional
$10,000 was given by a family from the United States and the building project
was begun. The construction was completed in 2010.
Still Waters Kid’s Home had not started its operation after the building has done for Ms. Barr had to leave for home in the US.Ptr. Virgilio and Linda Jacinto prayed and year 2013 month of June, Bro. Sander and Joan Rose Laqueo came and officially hired as Administrators of the SWKH. Until finally God allowed them to pursue and follow His will that is according to His words and let His love be shared to these abandoned, neglected, abused and orphaned children ages 0-6 in Majayjay, Laguna and nearby town.
