June 10th, 1996
Victor and his brothers, Francisco and Jesus, are living in the orphanage, because both of their parents are in prison. Victor and Francisco had been living in the prison with their mother, even though the environment was very unsuitable for little boys. Several attempts to remove them were unsuccessful.
One day their father beat one of the boys and was put into an isolation cell. The social worker saw this as the opportunity to remove the boys, and brought them to the orphanage.
Even though the parents weren’t in favor of the boys going to an orphanage, after a few visits with them, they saw positive changes in the boys, resulting in the parents requesting that their other son, Jesus, also be allowed to come to the orphanage.
Victor is a very strong willed little boy, which often gets him into trouble, but it is our prayer that this strength of character can be molded in a positive manner, making him a leader in God’s kingdom.
