Youth
Veronica Vazques a vibrant young lady is easily noticed by her warming smile
and her “How can I help?” persona.
We sat down with her and asked her a few questions in regards

to life and her experience as a member of the
Lighthouse of San Fernando.
What brought you to the Lighthouse of San Fernando?
V: My family and I were invited to attend the Lighthouse of San Fernando for
their “Feed A Family” event. My brother and I were not very excited to attend.
However, we attended the event with our mom and have stayed ever since.
How long have you been attending the Lighthouse of
San Fernando?
V: It will be 1 year November 2006.
What changes have you seen in your life since
starting a relationship with Jesus Christ?
V: I’ve had a lot of changes. I didn’t know who I really was in life, but I
found Him (Jesus Christ) and He changed all of that. There were times when I
wanted to commit suicide, but I now know this will not please God. I’ve come to
understand that I am here for a reason, and that He loves me.
You are now a part of RENDER Youth Ministry, a
ministry set out to teach you about God’s love, instruct you on the potential
you have to impact this world, and guide you to become a productive member of
our society. How have you seen God work in your life as a result of becoming a
member of RENDER?
V: God has worked in my life a lot. I remember my first bible study at
Starbucks; it was Kirby (Director of Render Youth Ministry) who began teaching
us about God’s love. He taught us that He (God) is there for us and that He can
bring healing to us. I have learned to forgive people and love them regardless
of the pain they have caused in my life. I have learned to become closer to
God.
How do you plan on impacting this world for Jesus?
V: Well, my plan is to bring more people to Him. I plan to introduce Him to
others by letting them know how much He loves everyone. I want to be a good
leader.
You have brought many young people to the Lighthouse
of San Fernando, why?
V: Yes I have. I have done this because I know they need Him in their lives.
Take this time to invite those young people who have
not visited our church or a RENDER gathering. What do you say to them?
V: Come and spend some fun time with us. Yes, we speak about God. However, we
have a good time. It is not a religion thing. It is about getting to know God
and falling in love with Him. He has done something in my life. Give Him a
chance and He will do something in your life too!
