Stories from Lar Feliz
Leticia, 10 years old
Hi, that’s me. God has blessed me tremendously these days.
I used to live with my mom, and she beat me a lot, as if she were beating a teenager and not a little girl. There was one day that the mother of my friend came to our house for a visit and my mom was drunk and was beating me for no reason at all. I and my little sister and my mom lived together alone in a house. One night she called me into the kitchen and she beat me so bad. I didn’t know God at the time, but I went into my room and cried for Him to take me away from this place. I was 7 years old. The next day during dinner, the social worker came and picked me up and brought me to Lar Feliz, and I have a Sponsor who is like a godfather who is very nice to me.
It is important for people to trust in God 24 hours a day.
