  • Education moments: A new world

    I was born in 1977 in Tucuman (Northwest Argentina) in extremely humble circumstances. My parents separated when I was a child, and I grew up essentially alone. At age 8 I moved to Mar del Plata, and a year later I was forced into the dark world of child labor. Five years later, a miracle occurred. The missionaries visited and taught one of our neighbors and she shared the message with me. Shortly afterwards, I joined the Church.
