Luis receiving his gift of shoes sent by Gord & Esther Pauls from the Runners Den

Luis is a product of hundreds who have been blessed by the servants heart of Jeannine. Luis was abandoned as a child in an "area of conflict" in one of the toughest parts of Colombia. At the age of 10, through Compassion International, Luis began as a new Christian to preach and was paid small amounts to speak at churches. At the age of 15, he sold a ring that was given to him and purchased a one way ticket to the OMS Seminary in Medellin. There he met Jeannine where in spite of his young age, he was accepted into the Seminary program.  Luis has worked hard and against all odds he will graduate after completing his fourth year of seminary!

As a thank you, Luis has promised to pray for Dick, my friend from the YMCA who donated the hats,
and this really touched my heart.
