I remember that he was the talk in our church after their God Encounter Retreat. He is the best friend of Faith, once a lesbian, too, but now a pretty girl in Christ. I saw him in one of the Youth Movers' Night, but never really paid attention. After his Encounter, he had cut his hair. Guin Santino was patient, and persevered in going after him so he and Faith can join a cell/lifegroup. One day, her efforts paid off.
I got to know him better when he lived with me para naa koy kauban sa balay, and wanted to help him so he would stay in the church. But what I didn't know was that grabe na diay ka lalom iyaha pag tuo sa Ginoo. He was very willing to change, and he dedicated his life to God. His former life was really messy and perilous, just like in the movies.
Today, he brings his friends to church and even his own family. Grabe ang iyang trials when he started serving Christ, losing two of his brothers to murderers. His sister now is serving God, too. He is now one of the primary leaders in the church, serving God with all his heart. JESUS IS CHANGE.
