From HELP City Mission / Father's House, Manila. As a little baby Jonathan was abandoned by his mom. He grew up knowing nothing about emotional attention for his first years in life. That’s why he was a very disturbed kid.
For several years now he has found a new home in the Father’s House and is flourishing. His grandma, who is working in Greece, just found out about this other grandson in May this year. When she was visiting the Philippines, she stopped by at the Father’s House to visit Jonathan. Both of them were so happy to finally get to know each other. Jonathan’s Grandma couldn’t stop crying for joy and thanked us again and again for taking good care of her grandson.
She is now back in Greece, working, but she regularly calls Jonathan to talk to him at the phone. Last week she forwarded 30 Euro so that Jonathan can buy something nice for himself. Never in his life had Jonathan seen so much money at one go; he grinned like a Cheshire cat and said: “Now I am going to buy the Father’s House for us!” (We will certainly save this money for Jonathan and help him to spend it on something nice for himself.)
