We did an update on Pistache a short time ago, but we wanted our friends and partners to know what an amazing young man he is. We found Pistache during a Mobile Clinic in the mountains. When he sat on my lap, (so I could talk to him) I asked him how old he was. His father verified that he was 15 years old when I thought he was about 7 or 8. Malnutrition had stunted his growth… but not his dream! He wanted to go to school and become a journalist.
To make a long story short, we put Pistache in a hospital, took care of him, and when he graduated from high school, we sent him to college. He finished almost all of his studies until he was kidnapped last year, with three other of our Haitian children! He was released after two weeks! You can see him in these pictures interviewing Mr. Zachary, the witch doctor who gave his heart back to Jesus!
Thank you, partners, for investing in souls here in Haiti.
