Our ‘Pan de Vida’ approach
“He knows my name”
Watch the powerful story of Carlos, who, as a two-year-old boy, was abandoned in Peru and adopted by his Dutch parents. At the age of 20, he leaves everything behind to share God’s love with the poorest children in the slums of Peru.
“A Journey Of Miracles”
At the age of 20, Carlos left everything behind to help Peru’s poorest children. Within a year, his dream had disappeared, and he only had crackers left to eat. At that time, his adoptive mother embarked on an extraordinary adventure. In this moving documentary, Carlos and Aukje tell how her wonderful journey led to thousands of children in Peru being fed every day. This film has been awarded a Crown Award in America and Europe.
