We are organizing this fundraiser for our neighbor whose husband was recently detained. They have a challenging case and this money will help them hire a lawyer. This is what they have written to share. English translation is below:

Hello, my name is Sebastian, I'm named after my dad. I want to ask for your help to bring my dad back to me. One night my dad didn't come home. I looked for him all over the house, but I couldn't find him. I thought a wolf had eaten him, but my mom told me he couldn't come home because a woman at Immigration had detained him. I don't understand very well, I just want my dad to be with me. I look for him at night before I go to sleep and in the morning when I wake up. I talk to God and ask Him to bring him back and to take good care of him. Please help me get my dad back.

From his wife:

Hello, I'm Daysi, Sebastian's wife. My husband was detained at the immigration offices. He told me that they called him by name, and a migration agent was hiding behind the door. They took him away secretly and put him in a car. It wasn't until a couple of hours later that he called me to say he had been detained.

I'm only asking for your help because he was my support, our joy... I have no other family in this country... it was just him, me, and our little one. We arrived in this country for a better future, but God's plans have changed, and today I ask you to intercede for us and please help me. I want my husband back; I'm desperate, the anguish is killing me. Please help me. I thank you from the bottom of my heart, and may God repay you twofold. Thank you.
