“La
Palmera” Resources Center and Social Department.
These are two
strategic offices dedicated to administrate all funding designated
for the community development programmes of “La Palmera”
CCC as well as establishing meaningful relationships with the families
and institutions of its neighbourhood.
These offices
are managed by Bolivian Christians assisted by the missionary team
and specialized short-term volunteers. In community development,
this is where the dynamics of empowerment take place. Kingdom values
and Christian ethics are their praxis.
The Resources
Center takes care of human resources, management control systems,
scheduling, buying materials and equipment, financial and activities
reports, training and travelling and customers care.
The Resources
Centre has an administrative staff of three people and manages a
total of 20 people between teachers, assistants, coaches, cooks,
maintenance & building personal and pastoral workers. Most of
this people are committed Christians, some are the church commended
workers; some are professional staff from the neighborhood who support
of community ethos.

The Social Department
takes care of all issues related with the relationship “La
Palmera” CCC and the neighborhood. Its team visits regularly
the families whose children attend the school, surveys the felt
needs of our neighbors, organizes community events and visits to
the school, assists the school children with their school progress,
publishes the weekly school notice board “Who is Who at La
Palmera”, provides parents with up-to-date information on
the school activities, manages the Child-Sponsor relationship, and
informs the church of any particular need in the community that
should be prayed for.
The Social Department
plays a vital role as an agent of evangelism in the community. Its
effective manner of reaching out to people and learning about their
different triumphs and trials open continually the door for Christian
witness and eventually opportunities to lead families to the Lord.
