Real love, lived out.
Amor Real means “real love.” Our mission is to live out that love through compassionate care, faithful relationships, and practical service, primarily in Peru and also in Kenya. Rooted in 1 Corinthians 13, we seek to meet each person with patience, kindness, respect, and hope.
A safe place. A hopeful future.
Amor Real Ministries owns and operates Pat’s Place, a Christian refuge for women and their children recovering from abuse, including survivors of human trafficking. At the heart of our ministry is a commitment to help families find safety, belonging, and room to rebuild their lives.
We walk alongside women as they grow in faith, rebuild confidence, and prepare to support their families. Christian counseling, psychological support, education, trade training, and work experience provide practical opportunities to move forward. For children, we seek to nurture a caring environment where they can learn, grow, and experience the love of Christ.

While most of our work is rooted in Peru, Amor Real also serves communities in Kenya. We bring churches, teams, and individuals alongside local communities to share the love of Christ through practical service and meaningful relationships. In Peru, building homes and meeting everyday needs help families take steps toward a more secure future. Our work in Kenya extends that same heart for people—sharing the Gospel, encouraging faith, and creating opportunities to put love into action.
Wherever we serve, we begin with humility: listening, learning, honoring the dignity of each person, and working alongside local ministry. Across Peru and Kenya, our prayer is that families experience the love of Christ, communities grow in faith and hope, and those who come to serve discover how much a willing heart can give—and receive.
Explore our missions →Every person matters.
Every person has dignity and worth. Healing deserves time and compassionate support. Faith becomes visible through everyday acts of care. These convictions guide how we welcome families, steward gifts, and serve together.
Our prayer is that women and children discover renewed hope, families gain a stronger foundation for their future, and communities experience the love of Christ through people willing to show up and stay involved.
Love with patience. Serve with compassion. Hold onto hope.
“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.”
1 Corinthians 13:4–7Help put real love into action.
Your prayers, generosity, and willingness to serve help carry this mission forward. Walk alongside families as they take their next steps toward hope.
