I would be dead by now
-
Not Synced
because I tried
to kill myself multiple times.
-
Not Synced
I couldn't think of the future,
I just thought of the present--
-
Not Synced
what was tormenting me,
and how I would kill myself.

Deeply depressed, Consuelo abandoned
her belief in God.
-
Not Synced
She tried to start over
enrolling in nursing school,
-
Not Synced
and wanting to do
something different with her life.
-
Not Synced
But her past weight on her
wherever she went.

After class one day, a professor noticed
something was wrong,
-
Not Synced
and told her about
the local Urban Center of Influence.
-
Not Synced
Consuelo visited the Center
where she met Michely and Angie,
-
Not Synced
Adventist-volunteers, with the one year
in Mission Program.
-
Not Synced
She enjoyed talking with them
-
Not Synced
and decided to take
a Portugues course offered here.
-
Not Synced
Over time, Consuelo became friends
with the volunteers.
-
Not Synced
And what I saw-- how they acted,
what they said, and everything they did
-
Not Synced
I felt the presence of God in everyone.
-
Not Synced
In the Adventist-volunteers
who are here, I saw this.
