WIN ONE, LOSE ONE

Pepe, inside the parsonage.  He always wears his helmet in case he falls with a seizure.

Pepe lives near the church in Nuevo Progreso. He's a handsome young man who always has a smile on his face and a bicycle helmet on his head. Pepe has epilepsy.

Pepe carries his medicine in his pocket and when he senses the onset of a seizure, he quickly takes one of the little white pills. Donated by friends Scott and DiAnna, this medicine helps keep his condition under control.

In August 2013 Pepe's brother hung himself in the family home. He had been engaged to marry, but things had gone wrong. He must have seen no solution to the problems and found the only way he could see to escape. Pepe and his mother are suffering severe grief over this tragedy and really need prayer.

Pepe accepted Jesus into his heart in September and now he and his mother really enjoy attending church. Pepe likes the abundant love and attention he receives from the family of God.
