Kuya Glenn


Name: Glenn
Birthday: August 19, 1994

Glenn is 15 years old and being the oldest male in Wesley Home for Youth has taken on the role of leader. He prepares meals and helps with other duties when needed. Glenn is a generous, honest young man, working diligently for his education despite the challenges of his situation. Glenn desires to continue his education and will have that opportunity at Wesley Home for Youth.


He is studying at third year high school level. Before living at WHY Glenn had to awaken early and walk 2 miles to school due to no transportation. His favorite subjects are math and Filipino and is respected as a hard-working student. He dreams of attending college in an effort to obtain skill by which he will support his family and give back to his community.

Glenn’s father works intermittently as a welder and his mother cares for four younger sons. Their family home is small; where all six family members share one bedroom, all cooking is done over an outdoor fire, and without the benefit of electricity or water. Glenn’s parents and brothers can visit him and receive Christian training and support through the home’s family outreach program.

Please pray regarding Glenn's salvation and discernment about the truth.
During the team's visit in January, Glenn was given a Bible and encouraged to seek the truth. He has been taught about Folk Catholicism, praying to and worshiping the Santo Nino, that he cannot approach Christ and have a personal relationship with Him.

Glenn is in need of a monthly sponsor. Is it you that will sponsor this young man God has placed at WHY?
Break out of your comfort zone! All of us have bills to pay, but most of us also have a little extra that could be given. Give of yourself financially to help this young man.

Thankful,
Sheryl
