HOMECOMING --- Miguel Reyes Velasquez of Ciudad Romero meets Father Mike Kennedy for the first time since his birth. Named after the priest, the young boy was born with a tumor on his face 14 years ago. Father Kennedy's efforts to get him to the hospital soon after his birth helped him to survive. Today, young Miguel attends school, plays soccer and helps his mother by bringing the family's four cows in from the pasture each evening.
