We are very blessed and excited to share the recent achievements of our sponsored student, Jorge Manuel Ortega. Jorge graduated from the four-year program at the Nautical Merchant Marine University in Mazatlan in 2020. After graduation the real work began. He worked as an apprentice at sea, while continuing to take post graduate courses. Through dedication and hard work, he now has completed 15 additional courses and received his Pilot’s License! Jorge is currently in Ciudad del Carmen, seeking employment. Jorge credits God for helping him to persevere, follow his dreams and overcome a number of life’s obstacles.
These students are a testimony to the success of FOB. Under the leadership of Dick and Dale, we are very thankful for their dedication to this program and to the community of Barron.
Gratefully,
Rob and Jayne Rupe
