Vikky

From time to time I will be telling a story of a student in the Bible college or a child from the
children's home. Here is one:
Vikky was one of the original boys in the Crosspoint of India children's home. He was the oldest at that time. He was born into a Hindu family. Before he had even turned 1 year old, his father was killed by a street dog. His young mother, wanting to remarry, sent him to live with his grandparents. They were old and in poor health and struggled to care for him. His grandmother cared for him until she was able to get him into the children's home. He grew up there, finishing school and growing spiritually.
Vikky loves music. He plays piano and drums. He completed the ministry's 1 year Bible school program while still in high school. He has succeeded in school and shown great interest in ministry as he grows older.
This year he will be attending a Bible college in another part of India. He i
ntends to complete his schooling and then return to be part of the Crosspoint school's leadership. He truly is a man with a heart for his own country and people. He could pretty much anything, but he has chosen to return to the ministry that changed his life.
