| Stuff and guests of the Set Free Centre in Manila |
The HELP drug
rehabilitation centre in Manila – While the streets of Manila are
getting filled with opulent Christmas decoration and lights, each and
every room at the drug rehab is filled as well. So the “shack”
will be really crowded for Christmas and we are looking forward
celebrating Christmas in a big group. Last week we took on a family
of 6, which we have know for quite a while. Mother and Father, they
both are struggling with drugs. During the following days we
plan to take in more rehab guests.
There
is Jeffrey
3 weeks ago the 29
year old Jeffrey has come to us. Already
at the age of 13 he began to take drugs. His father and his brother
were doing drugs as well. With age, he also dealt drugs. While his
father and his brother could make it years ago, he stayed on drugs. A
few weeks ago his brother has made it clear to him that there is a
way out of the hell of drugs. Jeffrey took courage and has decided
to take up a therapy with us. He feels at home now. Even though the
separation of his family is not always easy upcoming Christmas is
full of hope for him.
