This is Vasco. He and his mom started attending church at Camino de Vida about a year ago. A family friend recently shared a little more about their story and how Vasco has made a significant ripple effect in the salvation of many of his family members .
You see Vasco who is 5, has Autism. When he was little, his mom (who is a single mom) and he tried attending a different church. However as he got older and started to stand out for his uniqueness, they felt there was no place for him there. Many of their family members had either never had a relationship with the Lord or had drifted away .
About a year ago Vasco’s mom heard about Camino de Vida and how they had volunteers in the children’s ministry who were ready and willing to accept and love Vasco.
Vasco now a year later loves to come to church every Sunday with his mom. He loves to learn about God’s love for him and his family. He has invited his entire family and many have returned to the Lord, and others have started a new life with Jesus as their Savior. Vasco and his mom have found a safe place to belong and because of that, the entire family is flourishing in their personal walk with the Lord.
There is no better gift than to see a family restored by God’s loving grace and merciful kindness.
It’s stories like this- how the church has embraced Vasco and his family that continually reminds us that what we are doing in Perú (serving vulnerable people/ people with disabilities )has a significant eternal impact.
