- Working with GSF has meant a lot to me because I have been able to serve the poorest, most marginated and needed Colombian women through the gifts God has given to me. MVH

- Working with the GSF has made me feel useful to society and has filled the emptiness of my heart. RP

- My name is Victoria, I am 29 years old. I have lived a not very exciting, but conflictive life. Since I was a little girl, I had to understand that playing wouldn’t be a good choice for me because I had to help my mother with all the home chores and the caring of my brothers and sisters. For my mother wasn’t easy to do everything by herself. When I was thirteen years old, my mother died and we, all her children, were separated and sent to different foster homes. We grew up without seeing each other for thirteen years. When I was fifteen years old I met a young man who was fifteen too. I got pregnant and had a baby boy that means a lot to me. The baby’s father went away from me and in order to survive and raise my child I became a prostitute and worked as it for four years, time in which I was abused and mistreated a lot. I met then Good Shepherd’s sisters. They taught me to be aware of my own great value. They trained me in using industrial sewing machines. Now I work in a company where I received a fair salary for a worthy job. This was possible due to Godfather’s plan because a kind person supported me until I was prepared to get a suitable job. I give thanks to God because He gave me this wonderful chance and I ask God that many women can have the opportunity I had. VE
