Family Story:

Basilisa is from Oaxaca (Southeastern Mexico).  About fifteen years ago she moved to Ensenada with her husband and children . Her husband had problems with alcohol and aggression. so she decided it was best to leave him and find another place to live.  After leaving her husband she found land and began paying for it and moved her children there. She started a relationship with another man and they had a child together. After she moved in with him, she realized he was worse than her first husband and had to move back to her land. A few moths ago while she was at work she received a call that her little house was on fire, by the time she made it home everything was gone. Her sister has a Homes of Hope house and that is where they have been living for these past few months. Now they are asking YWAM for help as the were left with nothing.
