In early 2010, Paul and Kristin Hoffman founded the Judah Quy home for precious little ones in Santa Cruz, Bolivia, with the dream of providing love and quality medical care to orphaned and abandoned babies who need intensive attention to move beyond surviving to truly thriving and fulfilling their God-given potential. We had witnessed God’s miraculous work of restoration in our first adopted son, born with severe complications, and realized God was showing us the kind of care He wanted to provide for other abandoned children with serious medical challenges. Our team now serves 18 “preciosos” and it is our pleasure to provide them a continuum of loving care until they are, where possible, reunited with a family member (four so far), placed by the courts in a substitute family, or called home to Jesus forever.

The children at Judah Quy are loved and cherished as they navigate real challenges, such as cerebral palsy, severe birth malformations, hydrocephaly, disability due to grave physical abuse and natural disaster, quadriplegia, autism, infectious diseases, PKU, anophthalmia, serious congenital heart defects, convulsive disorders, deafness, blindness, and significant developmental and intellectual delays. And we are witnesses to what consistent, loving, and timely care can do for extremely vulnerable children. God is Father to the fatherless, and through His daily faithfulness and provision we have the enormous privilege of helping meet the vast need for a safe, loving environment for Bolivia's most unprotected and voiceless little ones. Living and loving between brokenness and wonder is sometimes very challenging and always humbling. Laughter and tears, hope and suffering mingle day after day.

Our incredible team of women serve the Lord, along with the Hoffman family, caring for these precious ones by providing, most importantly, genuine mothering for their wounded hearts and bodies 24/7, as well as customized stimulation, physical therapy, educational assistance for the five who can attend school, nutritional meals, and advocacy within the Bolivian courts and bureaucracy. For example, self-trained members of our team taught Braille to one young girl who lost her sight; *Karolina* has been successfully mainstreamed into school and was the top student in her class two years running, thanks to daily accompaniment and continual translation. (Bolivian privacy laws prohibit the use of minors’ real names.) In addition, in late 2024, the state government allowed the first-ever foster family placement. We believe God is directing us to expand our efforts to encourage awareness and action on part of His people to fulfill the critical lack of trained, loving, legally-authorized substitute families for children with special needs. And further on, to serve and support families who have made the blessed choice to care for their own disabled children.

God is the Father to the fatherless, and the Judah Quy home is truly His initiative and His Spirit gives energy and leadership to our team. He provides for the children's needs and the stipends that support our missionary team out of His abundance, and He does so through regular people who He leads to generously support His work through financial giving.
