JANUARY 07, 1984.

OMAR'S FATHER LIVES IN CALIFORNIA AND HIS MOTHER TRAVELS A LOT WITH THE FAIR. CONSEQUENTLY, OMAR WAS LEFT WITH HIS GRANDPARENTS WHO WERE UNABLE TO CARE FOR HIM PROPERLY. HE BEGAN WALKING THE STREETS ASKING FOR FOOD FROM THE NEIGHBORS. ONE DAY, A MEMBER OF GRUPO AMOR WHO KNEW HIS SITUATION ASKED IF WE WOULD ACCEPT HIM INTO THE ORPHANAGE.

OMAR IS A VERY ACTIVE, INTELLIGENT AND LOVING CHILD. HE HAS ACCEPTED THE LORD AND IS NOT HESITANT TO TALK TO HIS FRIENDS ABOUT IT. THE FIRST WEEK OF SCHOOL HE LED ONE OF HIS FRIENDS TO THE LORD AND WAS SO EXCITED ABOUT IT!

GOD HAS GIVEN HIM A LOT OF TALENT IN THE AREA OF ART AND MUSIC AND WE ARE TRYING TO ENCOURAGE HIM TO DEVELOP HIS GIFTS. OVERALL HE IS A VERY LOVING CHILD.
