Before I came to the Girls Rescue Center my life was too hard because I came to school by foot and our home was very far. Sometimes when there were harsh conditions of climate like rainy or hot days it was hard for me to survive. I was rained on and when I reached home I was told to wash, cook, and bathe little children. When my teacher gave me homework I had no time to do it.

What I have learned about Jesus here in the Rescue Center is how to fast and if you pray to God he will answer you in all ways. God is there everytime, he is the one who heals the sick and gives food meaning he is our provider. If Jesus is not there we shall not survive.

Jesus is always there and he will never leave you. When I am going through challenges he is the one that gives me strength and that time I get hope for life that I should never give up for he is always there for me. He protects me when danger comes and when my enemies try to discourage me.

My vision for my future is I would like to be a doctor so that in life I can help many people. I want to visit the sick, sponsor children, help my parents, and build a rescue center for the street children and those who are in need.

Knowing Jesus has really helped me in many ways. If I have any problems I always call on Jesus. I even remember that Christ died for my sins on the cross and that really built my heart. Every time I cry I can make myself feel better by talking to him and telling him my problems. I can just stop crying because I believe that he is going to solve my problems. All I have to say is that knowing Christ has made me feel better.
