I flee from Honduras.
I am a person of
Many years.
I belong to community organizations
To help
To Protect
My Neighbors.
*
For 10 years I owned
A small clothing store.
The delinquents
Robbed
My
Store.
2012.
*
I took a loan
To continue
Working.
Three years later…
…they ransacked my store.
Again.
Leaving nothing.

Meanwhile…
The police in my country
threaten
community
groups
when
we belong to
“the Wrong Party.”
*
The power is united in 3 groups:
The Mayor.
The Police.
The Hired killers.
They have their rules
To murder
people
who
disagree.
*
A fellow trustee was killed
4 de Julio del 2015.
The authorities did nothing
because
he opposed
their
corruption.
*
There is no justice.
We have much fear.
We made the decision to immigrate
for safety.
*
There is hope in Christ.
For faith in Christ
we are here
in
this
country.
