I support my Pastor’s advocacy, in which volunteers teach beggars to grow closer to God despite their hard luck. I met one of their members who had gone astray in the past.
“I was one of ‘them’. At the very young age, I was addicted to drugs, I smoke, drank alcohol, and didn’t go to school.”
“Then what happened when you met the Pastor?”
“I realized a lot of things. I curbed my bad habits and I am now better at my studies with the help of God and Pastor. Because of my experience, I want to help young ones like me to have goals in life.”
