The way that Eyes On Me has affected my life is that it showed me that there is a true need in the communities throughout Houston. There are still a lot of people that have not truly experienced the love of Jesus Christ in order that they may receive the gift of Salvation. It's amazing to me that no one has taken the time to disciple them the right way by teaching them to obey His commandments. Unfortunately they are being taught to obey the religious rules and regulations leaving them confused, hurt and discouraged which prevents them to have a relationship with God in a way that He intended to do so in the first place.So to sum it all up, I am grateful to be a part of Eyes On Me because I have truly learned how to share the Gospel and given me the opportunity to use my different gifts and talents to reach the lost. I love being a part of a team that is making a difference throughout Houston one community at a time and I'm very excited of what the future holds for this Ministry." DJ Brio (David Ortega)

"Hip Hop Hope has been a great tool in my life as a Christian. it has allowed me to use the gifts of Art as a missionary tool in my own city. I have seen many lives come to Christ and many people grow in their faith by a way of sharing it to the lost and its surrounding communities. it has challenged my personal growth as a man, husband and father in my walk with Jesus Christ.
