It was organized to care for orphaned, abandoned & unwanted children by providing food, shelter, education and heathcare and to facilitate local & international adoptions. The vision of the Living Stones Orphanage is to see the lives of children at risk changed to Godly principles, honorable convictions and integrity for living, by providing the basic necessities of a healthy environment and love. To help them fulfill their desires and give them a future and a hope. Ken & Cris Sandberg have been missionaries in the Philippines since 1989. They have been with Calvary International since 1995 and are currently serving as the directors of the Living Stones Orphanage in Davao City on Southeast Asia. Ken, Cris & their staff take care of these orphaned & abandoned children and help them find adoptive Christian homes. Some of them go back to their biological parents while others are adopted locally or internationally. Some still call Living Stones there home year after year. More than 50 children have come through Living Stones in the past year. Sixteen children are resident at Living Stones since July 2009, eight of them are infants.
