Services after he had been apprehended for stealing a watch, but was later
found innocent.

learned to accept the love of God and talk about his past hurts, he found
healing, and now has a promising future to look forward to.
ELI ALVIN LARA
RAMIREZ

Alvin is living in the Casa Samuel, our home in Ciudad
Guzman. His family situation was hugely
lacking as a safe place for Alvin and as a result he was suffering emotional
problems that resulted in his acting out.
Alvin now has new hope for the future since he has given his life to the
Lord. We look forward to seeing his
progress.
JOVANNY BELTRÁN GARCIA
vanny came to live in Casa
Samuel because of family problems. His
dad abandoned the family and from the time he was little, Jovanny had been
mistreated by his mom. Jovanny then went
to live with his grandma and developed a very rebellious attitude. He started to hang around with boys older
than him and was getting into trouble.
He was traumatized when one of his cousins was murdered and burned, and
would wake up at night screaming “I don’t want to be burned”. We received Jovanny when his grandma came
to us for help.

difficult economic situation, a result of the fact that the children’s’ father
had abandoned them.
OSCAR OMAR RAMIREZ JIMENEZ
Oscar was already 16 years old when he arrived at the
children`s home in October 2009. He is
in the Casa Samuel with his younger brother José Luis.
The boys are with us because their mom had died and
their father abandoned them. The
brothers are anxious to be able to stay together.
As can be imagined, it was difficult for Oscar to conform to the rhythm and rules of the
home at 16 years old, but he has putting forth a good effort. We know that as he understands about God`s
love and promises for him, Oscar will have the opportunity of a much brighter
future.

DAVID JIBRAN GUTIÉRREZ FAJARDO
Jibran arrived at our home “Casa Samuel”, in Ciudad
Guzman in October 2007. He is with us
because his parents divorced, and when left alone, he would venture out into
the streets. He was expelled from
school, and was under medical treatment to control his outbursts. There was also economic need in the home, and
at times they didn’t have anything to eat.
Since Jibran arrived, we have seen very positive
changes in his life. He has not taken
any medication since he arrived and his behavior has greatly improved. He is secure in knowing that his needs are
provided for. We know that the Lord has
great things in store for this young man.

JAIRO AARÓN VILLALVAZO FIGUEROA
Jairo arrived at our home in Ciudad Guzman in July
2007, along with his older brother Jair Alejandro. The boys have different fathers, and their
mother’s work was not a good example to her two impressionable boys. There wasn’t enough money, and at times the
boys went to school hungry. They began
to spend a lot of time in the streets.
