When Sergio Lopez’s wife was diagnosed with breast cancer and told she had only three months to live, he looked to the sky and asked God to allow her to see their young children grow old.
After she defied her doctors’ predictions and fought off the cancer to live for 15 more years, Lopez felt a call to deeper service within his faith and began the long journey to become a deacon in the Roman Catholic Church.
“I think God called me and said, ‘I gave you what you asked me, and now you’re mine,’” said Lopez, 60, of Maywood.”*
