Sergio was a young man i had the privilege to know.he had a very difficult childhood.he had a good heart but his environment and circumstances worked extremely against his desire to live a good live.my prayers goes to his family.i pray that this will bring his family closer to Jesus.Jesus is the comforter,he will help if you turn all your concerns it over to him.

I only knew Sergio for a short time about 4 months. He was always laughing and smiling. I also had the privilege to meet Jesus and what a kind and caring man he was. He loved and cared for Sergio unfortunately he couldnt be there for Sergio all the time. Well Sergio is safe now in the hands of the Lord and he will always have a place in my heart. My prayers to his Family
