Mission

Reflecting on his own delinquent past, Father Masseo Gonzales aka "El Padrecito" of the popular HOMIES figurines, founded El Padrecito Ministries as way to reach un-churched youth through the performing arts so that they might know they are children of a loving God.

990 for the year ended December 31, 2024

Program accomplishments

  • In an attempt to evangelize to over 5,000 Hispanic youth between the ages of 18-24 in the United States, many who would be considered "un-churched", the organization facilitated and participated in arts and music outreach at over 10 venues throughout the United States. The events used primarily "hip-hop" music concerts with a Christian message to reach these "at-risk" Hispanic youth, sending a message that there is an alternative to gang membership, violence and participation. Additionally, over 100 youth participated in a Performing Arts Center and have learned various forms of music and dance to enhance their social and physical development.
    Expenses $323,838
  • The organization served over 3,000 members of the public in furtherance of its exempt purpose through public outreach. This included members of the organization visiting various religous and secular venues with a message of charity and public dissemination of the Catholic faith through sacred scripture and other sacramental ministries.
  • El Padrecito's performing arts center is an affordable and creative outlet for children and their families in the farming community of Guadalupe, California. It is our belief that there is a direct link between healthy children, healthy families and a healthy society. A family that dances together stays together. The past year, over 300 youth were served by the program.
