#5 Interview with Harry Dietrich

Harry is the Director of the Men’s Program of the organization
„Ciudad Refugio“ and Medellín, the second largest city in
Colombia. I did my internship semester regarding my university
studies of theology and social work there.





It’s almost impossible not to see God in this place! Faith is
lived there in every day life and it’s incredible to see ex-drug
addicts now reading the Bible and that this relationship with God
has changed their lives completely! 





Especially Harry is a great model to me, the way he lives out his
faith in the midst of everyday work asking God for wisdom and
help, how he interacts with people being strict and consequent
but caring at the same time and how wise and God-fearing he
is! 





Listen to the interview and be inspired of also putting the Bible
into practice and start a relationship with Jesus, who wants to
transform your life, restore your broken heart, wants to rescue
you from things that make you unfree and destroy you and most
important wants to give you eternal life in heaven!
