Roman has said her weight also prevented her from being adopted. Now that painful past fuels her passion to help children through Compassion International.
“Compassion International is changing lives every day, putting hope, joy and grace into many, many lives,” Roman says. “The children are getting love, food, school, hope, bible teaching, and above all, Compassion, in a world that is harsh and hard and in need of love.”
