He soon fled from his abusive home, relocating to the third largest city in Brazil, Belo Horizonte. There Sidney found an entirely new world, a world entirely run by children who learned the hard way how to survive. By the time Sidney was 11 years old, he was a drug addict, thief and gang member. He had learned every survival tactic the streets had to offer, but he quickly discovered that his lifestyle was costing him a very high price. At 11 years old, Sidney discovered a once in a lifetime chance to leave the streets. Little did he know, the courage required to make that pivotal decision was only the beginning. Now a young adult, Sidney has traveled the world. He has spread the gospel and made disciples in every continent except Antarctica. His story provides hope and purpose for countless street children, helping them realize their divinely established destiny to change the world as we know it.
