Onésimo lives with his parents, younger sister Livia, (also in the program), and great aunt in his great aunt’s home. The home is a two-bedroom adobe house with a tin roof and concrete and dirt floors. The kitchen is in a room apart from the house and the bathroom is outside. They cook with wood and get water from a hose on the property. Their home is right next door to the church. Onésimo and his sister started coming to Saturday Bible Club and then showed interest in attending church services; they haven’t missed a day since.
Onésimo’s parents are both from the community; they’ve been married for 19 years. His mother and father both work farming and his dad also builds wood stoves. The family struggles financially because they have two older daughters in high school that they need to support in boarding school during the week. They own a piece of property but cannot afford to build a house.
