Dreams for the future:
Fritzner Pierre is known by the nicknames of Lulu and Luckner, because when he came to the St. Joseph Family we did not have his birth certificate and he told the leadership at Wings of Hope that his name was Luckner. It was only later, when the person who brought him returned with his birth certificate, that we found out that Luckner was not his real name. Lulu was abandoned in the mountain village of Bason Medor and a church team from Iowa who has a sister parish there asked the St. Joseph Family to give him a home. Since he was too young to go to St. Joseph’s or Wings of Hope, he was first sent to Wings of Hope, even though he is not handicapped. After several months at Wings of Hope, the leadership there determined that they could not give Lulu the tools he needed to mature to a level where he could live at St. Joseph’s or Trinity House because he was intellectually beyond the programs offered at Wings of Hope. To help him mature and learn the skills he needs to move to one of the other homes of the St. Joseph Family, the leadership at Wings of Hope determined that Lulu should move in with Wesner, the director of Wings of Hope. Wesner’s family is providing a foster home environment and helping Lulu develop the social and personal skills he needs. The home where he is living is very close to St. Joseph’s Home for Boys and Lulu spends time there getting to know the boys and participating in dance class. He also visits Wings of Hope on a regular basis to continue his relationships with the children there and to take part in the Boy Scout program at Wings. Lulu will go to school for the first time this year.
Lulu is a cute, sweet, bright little boy. When interacting with the other children, Lulu has a lot to say, but he becomes very shy around visitors. However, he loves spending time with visitors. He likes to play with toys and the other children. He loves playing the drums and is very musical. He also likes doing little chores around the house and helping others.
