"Stephen - You took me in, a complete stranger, and heard my longing for this young man, Anderson F., to be able to stay and live in America. and I will forever be grateful for your kindness and care. And you are so spot on regarding how amazing Christian Zeller is. What a dear and wise man he is! And, per your concern for us, he took us on with passion, concern, and generosity. Yet another asset thus far has been Liz Pabon, whom you also stated was awesome.

Again, thank you Stephen for all your kindness shown to me (and ultimately to Anderson) a few weeks back." - Reina C.
