My story I came from Burma, and I don’t have a Thai citizenship. I have one older brother, one younger sister and a younger brother. My younger sister came here with me. We moved because we needed shelter elsewhere due to the war in Burma. Back in Burma, my family believed in animism, and I don’t know Jesus personally but I’m looking forward to learning more about Him. My mother is still alive and taking care of my 2-year-old baby brother in Burma, but my father died in the war last year. My older brother (14) is fighting against the Burmese government, in the same war my father died fighting. We don’t hear from him so don’t know if he’s dead or alive. My mother sent us here hoping that we would have a better opportunity in life.
