Lar Mana is a non-profit institution founded in 2008 in the city of Paulista, Brazil. We welcome and care for children ages newborn to pre-adolescence who are in situations of social vulnerability. These children are removed from their homes and sent to us by the Child and Youth Court of the municipality of Paulista-PE and by the Guardianship Council. At Lar Mana, these children receive the physical, emotional, psychological, and legal assistance they need so badly.
Everything started when the couple Cícero and Nel da Paz donated the space to the church. At first, Maná was a place for spiritual retreats. Over the years, this space stopped being used as frequently. Thinking of other possible uses, the missionary Randy Short dreamed of establishing a home for children. He shared this vision with other members of the Church of Christ and received support from individuals and churches in both Brazil and the United States. L.A.R. Maná was officially established in 2008 and welcomed the first child in 2010.
L.A.R. Maná’s staff consists of dedicated, well-trained and loving members. Our team is made up of administrative assistants, managers, psychologists, social workers, educators, cooks, and general service employees.
