Opening The Book

The adoptive mother patiently filled the curious Amy Roberson with as many details of her past and the identity of her parents as she knew. Amy was informed that her birth mother was of Mexican-American origin and her birth father was black. She also told Amy her birth parents’ names too. Amy grew up to be the only child in her adoptive family but she always wondered about her birth family and if she had any siblings. 

Identity Crisis

Even though Amy was loved by her adoptive parents as she was growing up, she always felt a little alien among the white folks. She knew she belonged somewhere else and she wanted to meet her biological parents, get to know them, she wanted answers to so many questions. If she knew that the answers were hiding right under her nose, she won’t have gone to lengths to find her parents. 

Where Was Will?

Meanwhile, unaware of the whereabouts of his daughter, Will with all the determination it took, tried to shift the course of his life. It had been a long time since he had broken up with the woman who gave birth to Amy but breaking up with drugs and alcohol, he found harder to do.

In 2004, he surrendered himself to faith and in his own words, he “found Christ”. This helped him get past his addictions and in 2007 he turned into a pastor.
