Izadufasha Christopher<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Mijn naam is Christopher. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ik ben een voormalig straatkind, een van de kinderen die Pr Eugenia in 2003 in Oeganda van de straat heeft geplukt. Ik had toen alle hoop verloren. Ik werd door iedereen verwaarloosd; het was helemaal niet gemakkelijk. Ik sliep buiten, at uit het afval en had geen kans om naar school te gaan.

Ik was ook koppig, ik rookte marihuana en cannabis, dronk alcohol, zat in bendes, vocht ... Maar ik kreeg vriendelijkheid en genade te zien en kreeg een heel andere, christelijke opvoeding. Niemand die mij vandaag ziet, zou kunnen zeggen dat ik ooit een straatkind was... Ik ben veranderd in een gedisciplineerde jongeman die om anderen geeft en ik ben een vredestichter.

Ik werk als beveiligingsbeambte in een groot hotel waar ik gewaardeerd word. Ik heb een gezin en ik heb mijn studie kunnen voortzetten. Ik ben onlangs afgestudeerd met een B.A. in theologie en christelijk leiderschap. Ik ben ook assistent-pastor in mijn kerk.

Ik ben mijn moeder dankbaar, die God heeft gebruikt om me van de straat te halen en naar het rehabilitatiecentrum voor straatkinderen van KOINONIA te brengen, en alle mensen die het voor mij mogelijk hebben gemaakt om toegang te krijgen tot onderwijs, kleding, voedsel, het Woord van God, zorg...

We waren met veel straatkinderen die door Koinonia Ministries van de straat zijn geplukt. Namens hen allen deel ik mijn verhaal en zeg ik dankjewel.

Wees gezegend.
